Avoid Virus attacks to your PC

Virus are programs that may run automatically, regenerate automatically and allocate unnecessary memory and makes PC slow and malfunction. Virus are capable of destroying software too by modifying files.

So by understanding Virus. We can avoid them.
1. Do not run unknown executable files or install.(Most important)
2. Install Any one free antivirus.
3. Do not download unknown files.
4. Scan pendrives before using them.
5. keep the file extension shown (folder options). Because viruses can have any fimiliar icon or name but they can have only executable extensions like .exe. So u ll recogzise the virus even if its icon is like folder coz it ll have extension .exe.

Lists of free antivirus are.
-Avira
-AVG
-Avast!
-Bit Defender
-Microsoft Security Essentials (not totally true antivirus but defends unwanted things on PC)
