My computer ITT guy told me that the best virus protedction system is (Total Defense). He also told me about some virus's that you need to be on the look out for and avoid if at all possible

The first one is deadly no way other than to wipe your system totaly down is a (crypto locker) this one is coming out of Russia... This Virus locks up your system, demands that you pay them $150.00 or more if you do not it wipes your computer of all files, Paying them does not quarntee that they will remove the virus and let you keep the files. Some they do some they do not. His advice is not to pay them. He said that one needs to back up their computer with a good auto on line back up... forgot which one he said..

There are some more virus similar to that one except they are U.S. based acting like they are the FBI, State Police, NSA or other law inforcement.
They c
watch out...
lamin that Your computer is storing illegal items like child Porn. They lock up your computer, and tell you that you must pay a fine and how to pay the fine and if you do they will remove the block and remove the illegal files and let you off with just the fine and a warning.

When opening e-Mail hover your cursor over the address, (even if you recongnise the person it says it is from... By hovering your cursor over the address it will show you who it really is from... There are some hackers that have e-mail adress and is using this to send the viruse.
The virus I go has been one that we have had to copy my files, and wipe the whole system down and rebuild it. Luckly I have other computers...
the one that got hit was my office computer here at the house.
