Electronic Gadget Hackers

Electronic Gadget Hackers
I read an article about how some of today’s hottest gadgets are landing on store shelves with some unwanted extras from the factory: pre-installed viruses that steal passwords, open doors for hackers, and make computers spew spam.

Many computer users have been warned for years about virus threats from downloading inappropriate content and opening suspicious e-mail attachments.  Now viruses can be transferred from a computer to an Ipod, digital picture frames, and TomTom navigation gear.  Some of the viruses may steal your passwords, delete files, and corrupt your computer or item that you have.

I think that after you get a new computer, you should make sure that you have and use an antivirus program and firewall and keep it up to date.  By keeping your computer’s antivirus program, your computer will have a lower risk of getting unwanted viruses.
