I’ve always wondered what goes on in the minds of people that create computer viruses. Why would they want to create something that inflicts harm on people that they have never met? Where does all that anger come from? Well, these are questions that will probably never truly be answered, but when it comes to computer viruses, there is one question that is quite easy to answer; how can I remain safe from infection? The answer is simple; 1. Use up-to-date anti-virus software, and 2. figure out some method of data backup storage so that you won’t lose everything if you do end up getting a virus anyway.
