Confirm the regular renewal of anti-virus, anti-spyware and other internet security software on your PC. Use it regularly and keep it up-to-date.
If you notice suspicious activity in your accounts, report it immediately to the appropriate parties.
Do not download or open any attachments sent to you by unsolicited email. Once opened, these programs may contain malicious programs that can compromise your PC’s security.
Be on the alert for phishing scams. Access websites by typing the web addresses directly into your web browser or by using web addresses you have bookmarked, instead of via embedded links in unsolicited emails.
