Anitvirus protection.

In a constantly connected world, you can contract a computer virus in many ways, some more obvious than others. Viruses can be spread through email and text message attachments, Internet file downloads, and social media scam links. Your mobile devices and smartphones can become infected with mobile viruses through shady app downloads. Viruses can hide disguised as attachments of socially shareable content such as funny images, greeting cards, or audio and video files.

To avoid contact with a virus, it’s important to exercise caution when surfing the web, downloading files, and opening links or attachments. To help stay safe, never download text or email attachments that you’re not expecting, or files from websites you don’t trust.

In April 2017, 40 percent of internet users were buying several things each month online, and that figure is expected to double by 2020.

Being able to shop and buy online comes with several significant benefits, but it comes with a few disadvantages as well that you should know about.

Gmail is one of the best, if not the best email service out there. It is good enough that many users rely on their Gmail account as a primary email address. Gmail offers an amazing amount of options and features. If you don’t have a Gmail account, it is time to get one.

Gmail has a search-oriented interface and a “conversation view” similar to an Internet forum or chat windows.

Google’s mail servers automatically scan emails for multiple purposes, including to filter spam and malware. Gmail supports two-step verification, an optional additional measure for users to protect their accounts when logging in.
