[QUOTE="Compiler, post: 1023369, member: 35047"] This may not be THE PERFECT way of dealing with viruses but it has surely helped me since last couple of years to get rid of viruses. (Now i can sleep without worring about installing security patches and updating antirus) Following are the list of software's you need to install. 1)Virtual box (or any Virtual Machine software.e.g.VMWARE). I prefer Sun Virtual box 3.0 as its free.You can get it with January edition of chip magazine or from official site. 2)Deep Freeze . Here is the trick. I m not using any anti-virus anti malware /spyware software's to keep my computer utilize its strength in other task. First downloaded a software called deep freeze. The software freezes your operating system drive. I have free zed my c: . Now whenever i surf net or do any kind of activity which is prone to virus ,all i need to do is restart my window to get back to original stage. Now the question arises what shall i do to install my necessary software's and other stuff. Just install Virtual box before using deep freeze and keep your operating system hard disk in d drive (Since we already freeze c: using deep freeze). Don't forget to take snapshot of your virtual operating system once you install necessary software. (Snapshot is a restoration technology used in virtual machines.) Now use your original operating system to surf internet ,plug in removable media whose authenticity is not known to you. Use Virtual machines to test your software or doing your daily work . Do share your views if you like my POST. You can ask any queries regarding the software's mentioned above. [/QUOTE]
