Most of us usually think that one has to have only branded antivirus protection to get rid of security threats, irrespective of accurate configuration for the same. It is right till some extent, but not absolutely correct. In reality, other than just installing security software, it is very important to customize the advanced settings of it accordingly. Other than security benefits, it helps to improvise the performance of our system.
Last Sunday, my system encountered with a serious virus issue, which really troubled its speed. I was in the middle of some important assignment, and my system was continuously freezing and restarting intermittently, it was annoying. Thanks to one of my friends, who gave me a helpline number of a great Antivirus support organization. My system’s issue was resolved in just 5 minutes, as the technician just asked me some of the probing questions related to the issue, and resolved it online with the help of secure remote connection. That was great!
Apart from just resolving the technical issues, the antivirus help technician also provided me some useful tips to install antivirus software and configuration related guidelines, which is essential to save system from most dangerous viruses and spywares. So, if you have also installed new antivirus software in your system, make sure to configure it properly to keep your system secure and long lasting.
