the danger of not having a good password is if someone knows guesses your password correct the could hack you and change your password. so make a password no one will guess but also one that you will remember!

I used many anti-viruses and i suggest you to buy Quick Heal. I'm telling you the advantages and disadvantages of all anti-viruses. Bitdeffender's detection is good but it decrease your internet speed. Bitdeffender is recommend only for high speed users. Kespersky is the worst anti-virus. Virus detection is very bad and it is very risky as it delete the System file also it kill very much computer resource. Norton is a anti virus that only scan for viruses but didn't delete completely as it is mentioned in the official website of symentic(Norton) and the daily update of this anti virus is too big. AVG is a good anti-virus but the main problem is that if are about to download videos from youtube via IDM or DAP, you cant and the daily update of AVG is very big. I recommend this anti-virus only for high speed internet users. Panda has amazing cloud security but the detection is not good at all. Avast has low property of detection and healing. Avira detect very well but cant heal properly. Microsoft Security is now become very popular. The update of Microsoft Security Essential takes low time but it cant heal properly and the scanning of 1.5 gb takes more than 2 hour.

I recommend you to buy Quick Heal with amazing scanning,detection and healing property. Update is low and it don't hamper your internet speed.

It is my favorite anti virus since i'm using. Quick heal is not so popular but it is the best anti virus. It have also mobile scanner which scan your mobile

PC Cillin is a good antivirus software but it still has to be updated a bit to catch up with other antivirus softwares. It is missing a few features that can be found in more recent antivirus software packages.

I know that most antiviruses use a macro code database to identify and eliminate viruses. All a virus is comprised of is a very long list of code called macro. Each virus has a different code and each code allows the virus to have a different function. Antiviruses update their viral macro code database so that they know which codes to look for and once they identify a known viral macro they will delete it.

yes obviously you can install anti virus without Internet connection with the help of previously downloaded software either from pen drive, CD, DVD or from any drive of your computer which contains the required software.

But to make it updated with latest definitions (that is able to detect and cure the spam attacks, various virus attacks from the Internet) you must have Internet connection to update your anti virus so that it can effectively detect any possible threat which can be harmful to your computer/laptop.

thanks in advance !!! cheers

Because people are making new viruses to damage computers. I am pretty sure that ever minute 10 new viruses are made. Every second Tuesday of every month Microsoft creates patches for Windows.It is commonly called Patch Tuesday. Viruses made in this day are called zeo-day viruses. its best to update early

A CD will have been shipped with virus signatures at the time of its production. Your virus may be a later made virus and thus the disk, and the program on it, won't know of this particular virus until a update is applied.

On Wikipedia, a hacker is defined as such:

"Hacker, as it relates to computers, has several common meanings. Hacker is often used by the mass media to refer to a person who engages in computer cracking and is also often by those in computing fields to refer to a person who is a computer enthusiast. At least three major hacker subcultures, characterized by their largely distinct historical development, use the term in their jargon for self-identification. They are centered around different, but partially overlapping aspects of computers and have conflicting ideas about who may legitimately be called a hacker (see hacker definition controversy). In computer security, a hacker is someone who focuses on security mechanisms. In common use, which was popularized by the mass media, that refers to someone who illegally breaks into computer and network systems. That is, the media portrays the 'hacker' as a villain. Nevertheless, parts of the subculture see their aim in correcting security problems and use the word in a positive sense. They operate under a code of the Hacker Ethic, in which it's acknowledged that breaking into other people's computers is bad, but that discovering and exploiting security mechanisms and breaking into computers is nevertheless an interesting aspect that can be done in an ethical and legal way. This use is contrasted by the different understanding of the word as a person who follows a spirit of playful cleverness and loves programming. It is found in an originally academic movement unrelated to computer security and most visibly associated with free software and open source. It also has a hacker ethic, based on the idea that writing software and sharing the result is a good idea, but only on a voluntary basis, and that information should be free, but that it's not up to the hacker to make it free by breaking into private computer systems. Academic hackers disassociate from the mass media's pejorative use of the word 'hacker' referring to computer security, and usually prefer the term 'cracker' for that meaning. In a third meaning, the term refers to computer hobbyists who push the limits of their software or hardware."

So by this definition the bad side is essentially fear mongering and a few individuals giving the whole group a bad name. According to the various legitimate definitions, there is plenty of good that can and has come from hacking. Most of the wondrous technical achievements of the past fifty years can be attributed to hackers at play, from the advent of video games with Spacewar! on the PDP-1 to the Mars rovers, and SpaceShipOne.

Every community will have its bad eggs, but if one only focuses on the few, they miss the benefit of the many.
