Number 3) is Zonealarm
Privacy being under attack these days from all and sundry places
and people (what with surreptitiosly placed webcams,
keylogging software, computer hacking, its almost as if
ones whole life is now on show for whoever is ready
to pay the big bucks for perverted voyeuristic pursuits
and pleasures...
But many times, it is we ourselves who do not take
even the most basic precautions ...
sometimes out of ignorance ..
at other times due to laziness ..
I can do nothing about the latter,
but so far as ignorance is concerned,
we can all chip in with whatever awareness
can make our lives better and more in tune with the will of God.
In the light of the above, I am offering
an anti-hacking software to secure your PC
from unwanted attacks ..
For those who don't know what is hacking ....
Here's a short explanation ..
Your computer communicates with the net and
cyberworld and other computers in a LAN network
through portals (or doorways) known as ports ..
There are around 65000 ports ..
through which your computer can communicate ..
Relax, most of them are system ..
and not for you to mess with ..
unless you are a pro . Like port 80 is used to access the internet websites ..
Port 25 for SMTP email (outgoing) etc.. etc..
Now a hacker typically enters your computer through a port ...
an open port that allows him access ..
Windows does have a password option ..
but there is no limit on the number of attempts ..
So a hacker can theoretically try all possible combinations
until he gains an entry into your system and
once He/she does (Yes, hackers can be females too .. ..
don't underestimate them) then they pretty much own your computer
and can do whatsoever they wish ...
Like create files,
delete files,'
modify files ..
even add files to incriminate you ... (like porn for example ... )
