Five ways to keep your PC free of viruses and Trojans

Even if your PC is equipped with up-to-date anti-malware software, hardware and software firewalls, and other security measures, it can still become infected. The weak link in computer security is the wetware: the human beings who use the machine. And there's simply no fool-proof defense against operator mistake.

That's why any PC security plan has to assume that eventually, some piece of malware will breach the defenses. And these days, infections can do considerable damage without being detected. Here are five ways — some more practical than others — to reduce the risk of someone stealing the sensitive data on your system or using it to break into your bank accounts.

#1: Don't use Windows
It makes perfect sense that data thieves target the most-popular computer platform, so the best way to minimize your risk is to use an operating system other than Windows. Unfortunately, this simply isn't practical for many users. At work, our employers usually determine the type of PC we use.

But even when the choice is ours to make, the software we rely on may lock us into Windows. Still, more and more people are switching from Windows PCs to Macs — despite the cost premium — or to Linux — despite the added complexity and smaller number of applications available. And their primary motivation for choosing an alternative platform is the added safety it provides.

If you can't give up Windows, you may still be able to install Linux on an old PC or in a partition of your Windows PC. Then you can use that system (or partition) whenever you engage in any sensitive computer activities. You'll find instructions for dual-booting Windows and the Ubuntu version of Linux on the Ubuntu Community Documentation site.

In 2008, I wrote a series of posts about getting started with Linux. I found out the difficult way that it pays to do a little research before you start your conversion to Linux. Despite the heavy lifting, adding Linux to your PC repertoire offers many benefits apart from the added safety. To start with, the OS and nearly every applications are free. Do you think Microsoft will be giving away Windows anytime soon?

#2: Don't use your bank's online services
Several years ago, there was a rash of phishing e-mails masquerading as important messages from major banks. I scoff at any e-mail that purports to be from my bank. That's because I've never given my bank my e-mail address.

I've had the same bank account for decades and have never felt the need to bank online. You can say online banking is a convenience. You can say online bill-paying saves you time and the cost of stamps. But to me, the convenience and time- and money-savings simply aren't worth the added risk.

But I'm the Luddite exception, as the growth in online banking services attests. To bank safely online, make sure you're dealing with a legitimate establishment. The FDIC offers a guide to safe Internet banking that's a few years old but still helpful, particularly for its information on how to determine whether an online bank is insured.

You must also take precautions during an online banking session. In 2008, University of Michigan researchers reported on the prevalence of flaws in the design of banking sites that put the banks' customers at risk. More ominously, the FDIC issued a special alert last October warning banks about "money mules" who are recruited — often unwittingly — as accomplices in fraudulent electronic funds transfers from compromised bank accounts. (Read more about the threat on the Retail Payments Risk Forum's Portals and Rails blog.)

Many analysts look multifactor authentication (or two-factor authentication) as a way to strengthen the security of online banking. Last September, security expert Bruce Schneier described weaknesses in two-factor authentication. Schneier recommends securing the transaction rather than the person, which he points out is the approach taken by credit-card companies.

#3: Use a disposable credit-card number
Speaking of credit cards, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act limits consumers' loss due to unauthorized use of credit cards to $50 — but the protections don't apply to unauthorized use of debit cards. That's why it's important to avoid using debit cards for online transactions.

You can increase your level of protection when buying products or services online by using disposable credit-card numbers. CreditCards.com describes these virtual credit cards and offers tips for reducing your risk of loss when using PayPal and other electronic payment systems to purchase products online.

#4: Use virtualization software every the time
Last August, I described the $25 Returnil virtualization software that creates a virtual environment — or sandbox — on your PC to prevent any unauthorized changes to your system. When you close down your machine, every traces of the session are wiped out.

When I tested the program, it didn't slow my PC down noticeably, though it does require that you grant permission for each file or program setting you want to change while working in the virtual environment. Still, if safety is your paramount concern, there's no more secure method than using a virtualization program such as Returnil.

#5 Use more than one malware scanner
No security program is 100% effective, so the more different malware scanners you use, the better your chances of spotting any virus that makes it through your first line of defense. (Remember to use only one real-time malware scanner at a time to avoid system-stopping software conflicts.)

I set my primary security program to scan e-mail and file downloads automatically and to run full system scans during times when the PC is otherwise idle. But I also use Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware program to scan my system about once every week. The free version of the program lets you perform manual scans, but only the $24.95 version supports real-time malware scans and automatic updates of its virus database.

Nearly every security-software vendor offers free online scans. These include Trend Micro's HouseCall, BitDefender Online Scanner, Kaspersky Online Virus Scanner, F-Secure Online Scanner, and Panda ActiveScan. CNET Editor Jessica Dolcourt examines the pros and cons of these services in "Demystifying online virus scans."

The VirusTotal service lets you scan files you suspect may be infected. The free service uses virus databases from more than 40 different security services. Likewise, Jotti uses 16 separate virus scanners to identify infected files. And just in case two virus-scan aggregators aren't sufficient insurance, run that suspicious file through the dozens of scanners at VirScan.org.

Office 2010 nearly ready; upgrade offer launched

Microsoft said on Friday that it plans to finalize the code for Office 2010 next month and, as expected, it kicked off a program enabling those who buy Office 2007 in the coming months to receive a free upgrade to the new version.

In a blog posting, Microsoft said that it will have a business launch for the Office 2010 products on May 12. The company has said it expects the software to be broadly available in June.

As for the technology guarantee program, Microsoft says it will apply to those who buy Office 2007 between now and September 30 and will allow an upgrade to the comparable Office 2010 product.

Though such programs are typical, this one had even less of an element of surprise after a Microsoft employee briefly posted details of the program last month. Microsoft CFO Peter Klein confirmed the program earlier this week, telling financial analysts on Tuesday to expect the company to defer revenue this quarter to next to account for the upgrades.

Although Office 2010 doesn't bring a radically different look or new file formats, as Office 2007 did, it introduces a number of changes, most significantly the addition of companion Office Web apps that work in a browser. Also, for the first time, Office will arrive in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

A beta version of the software has been available since November and Microsoft has also been doing limited testing of a close-final "release candidate" version of the software.

Microsoft to fix eight Windows and Office holes

(Credit: Microsoft)

Microsoft will issue two bulletins fixing eight vulnerabilities rated "important" in Windows and Microsoft Office products on Tuesday, the company announced on Thursday.

This represents a light Patch Tuesday, a contrast to last month when the company patched 26 holes with 13 bulletins, including critical vulnerabilities for Windows.

Meanwhile, Microsoft is continuing to monitor the situation with a VBScript vulnerability that was disclosed on Monday, Jerry Bryant, senior security communications manager guide at the company, wrote in a blog post.

Proof-of-concept code has been published on the Internet that exploits that vulnerability, which affects older Windows systems running Internet Explorer. Microsoft suggested several workarounds until it releases a patch, including avoiding pressing the F1 key when prompted by a Web site.

Open Question: Feminist ideal of role of women in home versus in society?

I am very curious about this topic. Modern feminism calls for complete equality between men and women in the public sphere. However, what are your opinions on the role of women at home? I grew up in a traditional family. My dad worked as an engineer and the home was my mom's domain. She cooked and was a homemaker. She also worked part time in early childhood development. This system worked well for my family, and I am not really sure how else the work can be divided. Does modern feminism oppose traditional gender roles within the household? Most households cannot afford a maid or a cook, and someone has to cook and clean. In my opinion women are simply better suited for this nice of work. But, that's just me. Please share how you feel about this topic. Also, please keep your responses civil. I'm sure that many of you think that I am a misogynistic pig, but attacking my character receive really old really quick. Thanks.
