Keep Your Guard Up
I was asked to assist someone with a "computer" problem they were having recently. As soon as I sat down in front of their personal computer I noticed their personal firewall was "disabled". I questioned why it was disabled. They replied that some application they had attempted to use did not work. So they turned it off. I asked how long had it been disabled? They indicated a few days. While fixing their original problem I updated their virus protection software with the latest files. It had been many months since their virus definitions had been updated. So "Keep Your Guard Up"!
