When I first started brainstorming the different visual guides I personally wanted to produce for our company, one that stuck out was a simple guide walking computer users of all levels through setting up their computer to be protected on the internet. So many people use poorly designed anti-virus software that comes pre-loaded with their computers when they buy them at the store, and all too often they get in the way of actually using your computer. And then after a brief trial, those same anti-virus programs not only have the gall to pester you constantly for money, but you only get 1 year of service before having to pay again! No wonder most people find anti-virus software to be an annoyance and simply turn it off, leaving their computers at risk to a virus or other harmful software that could wind up costing them hundreds of dollars in computer repairs down the road.
My family and friends often ask me to setup their computers for them. I go through the same process every time: I install the anti-virus software I personally use on all their machines. It is free and consistently ranks among the top of all anti-virus programs. Then I go a step further and install even more free software that most computer repair shops use themselves to clean out infected computers. Not only does this help protect you even more, but we’ll show you how to use this same software to backup critical settings so that a professional repair service has a much better chance of restoring your computer if anything ever goes wrong… even if it is just user error and not a virus!
Although I had a lot of faith in this particular visual guide, I soon realized that I couldn’t sell it. Everyone should have access to this information to protect their computers. Maybe you are still unsure of yourself around computers and don’t know what you’re doing; we’ve got you covered by showing every step in pictures. Or maybe you are the teenage tech guru of your family who already knows everything in this book, and they always make you setup all their computers like I had to do; now you have a book you can give them and go back to playing video games instead.
Whatever your scenario is, I know this book can be of great value to you.
