PC Maintenance and Security Lab

For the Atomic Lab I picked 3 Tutorials.

The first was under the Blocking and Killing Sypware and Adware and was about Spyware Blaster. There were actually 2 that I watched but the second one was very short!
I learned that there are good free tools on the Internet and I will definitely share this one with other people. It was easy to install, updates regularly and will make my computer run quickly.


The second tutorial I watched was on Tips for Safer Browsing, Exploring Firefox. I only began using Firefox when I began using Angel for this class. So I was interested to find out about the different settings I could use and tools were particularly useful. I would show some of the ways I learned about the Firefox privacy options and the set master passwords option.


The final tutorial I used was under the Good Safety and Security Habits: Following a PC Maintenance checklist. It was interesting to see that they recommended manually doing updates instead of just using the automatic updates. I would share this list with others!
