How do you know if your android phone has a virus?
You can normally tell if you have a virus because your computer may be running slower then usually. However, your computer may also be running slower then usually if your system is updating or running a anti virus scan. Another reason you may think you have a virus is because programs may "Not Be Responding" if this is happening then you may have a virus. Viruses however generally go without being detected and can run in the background without you even knowing. This is why you should do regular virus scans. Hope this has helped.

What 3 anti spy-ware programs can be wsed on a PC?
By Khalid Betani
- Number 3: Lavasoft's Ad-Aware SE, Personal Edition
Cost: Free
About.com Rating: 4.5 stars out of 5
Editor's comment: Lavasoft has been the benchmark spyware-defense tool for years. Their Ad-Aware product has won the trust of millions of users. Although it doesn't have the nifty shredding and email opt-out lists of Spybot, Ad-Aware does perform realtime protection, and it auto updates its definition lists to remain current. Up until 2006, combining Spybot and Ad-Aware was the smartest (and the cheapest) way to defend your compute against spyware. Things are different now, because Number 1 below has set the high bar even higher for 2007.
- Number 2: Navarre Webroot Spy Sweeper
Cost: Free to try, approximately $39 to buy
About.com Rating: 4.5 stars out of 5
Editor's comment: Achieving 100% detection of spyware toolbars in recent About tests, Spy Sweeper was also effective in shutting down nearly 85% of active malware processes. This would go well as a three-way combination with Spybot and Lavasoft.
- Number 1: Macafee Virus Scan and Anti Spyware
Cost: Approximately $39.99 for antivirus and anti-spyware combined
About.com Rating: 4.5 stars out of 5
Editor's comment:
- In recent About.com tests, Macafee managed to detect 100% of all spyware infection, and it also shut down nearly 99% of spyware processes running in memory. While you cannot purchase Macafee anti-spyware without also purchasing their antivirus, the bundle is absolutely worth it at $39.99. If you are willing to spend money on your spyware and virus defense, then Macafee and Web Root are the two choices we recommend to everyone. If you are looking to save yourself a few dollars, then Lavasoft/Defender/Spybot can make for a good no-cost combination defense.

What is the origin of the Internet and how does it work?
The Internet is a worldwide network of interconnected computers that allows users to access and transfer information remotely. The information viewed on the Internet is actually not on the Internet at all, but rather on other computers, and viewed via the Internet. The most popular service accessed through the Internet is the World Wide Web (WWW). The Web and the Net are often considered to be synonymous but actually represent two different things. Whereas the Internet is the means for accessing information, the Web is composed of the visual display of the information being accessed.
See related links for a Web Guide to the Internet, which explains the history, origins, and functionality of the Internet.

What are two software packages used to combat computer viruses?
One should be the DotNetScanner 1.6. Add virus-scanning capabilities to your .Net applications! DotNetScanner is a free utility which will scan files and folders from your application using only one line of code! DotNetScanner launches your default anti-virus software and uses it to scan for viruses. Protect your users from infected files. DotNetScanner supports Norton Anti-Virus, NOD32, AVG Anti-Virus, F-Prot Anti-Virus and many more! http://www.globalfreeware.com/DotNetScanner-16.html
The other one should be the '''ANETGames Anti-Virus 2006 4.0.2. It is a free scanning utility which scans for known files that usually carry threats. If it is unable to completely delete a threat, it will try its best to at least disable it for you. http://www.globalfreeware.com/ANETGames-Anti-Virus-2006-402.html.

If you have McAfee, I recommend that you uninstall it. I used to have McAfee and if it detects a virus, it will quarantine it, but not delete it. You're better off installing Symantec or Norton 360.
