Internet Safety Center Discusses Antivirus Protection Part Four

June 25, 2009 - PRLog -- (JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA). The Internet Safety Center provides tips, advice and software to ensure the internet safety of kids, complete internet security, identity theft prevention, elimination of computer viruses, best antivirus software, parental control and spyware removal.

"The internet safety center continues with its discussion and explanation of anti virus protection by explaining that an antivirus program or software works using methods. The first antivirus method is that it compares data with the virus definitions, signatures and updates. If the antivirus program or software discovers that the data matches any of the virus signatures and or sequence of bytes within the machine code of the virus, then the antivirus protection program will conclude that the file has been infected by the virus" said Clyde Thorburn, a work at home Internet Marketer and professional Search Engine Optimization Specialist.

Clyde went on to say, "All viruses have unique signatures and some of the most effective and common antivirus protection software programs like Norton Antivirus hold more than sixty three thousand virus signatures. The second method that an antivirus protection program or software system uses or applies to examine computer data is called “Heuristic scanning” and “Sandboxing”. During the Heuristic scanning procedure the antivirus protection system compares the act of information with lists of all the hazardous activity patterns. The antivirus protection program then analyses the lines of code within the program and makes a decision as to whether the program holds a virus, by studying how the program was created and how it performs".

Clyde said that, "Sandboxing by the antivirus protection program is a procedure where it takes hold of the doubtful hazardous codes and runs the code through a Virtual Machine. This procedure is conducted independently and away from the system that it is examining. The antivirus program then determines or calculates how the code works and what the ultimate goal or aim of that code is. It is a common practice for Antivirus protection companies to use both the methods described above to build and create new virus signatures as well".

Clyde pointed out that, "The aim of Internet Safety Center at http://www.internetsafetycenter.com/index.php is to educate parents on the risks of the internet and to help them acquire, learn and apply approved and reliable internet safety techniques. This includes internet security software and techniques to protect themselves and provide internet safety for their kids while they surf the internet. This is achieved through the parents learning Center on how to use and apply parental control software and learning about internet dangers. Providing internet security and internet safety for children is an important responsibility for all conscientious parents. Internet Safety Center provides the best internet security tools to protect parents and their children from viewing adult content on the internet".

Clyde mentioned also that, "The Internet Safety Center provides and recommends various parental control software to ensure computer security where parents can restrict access to the Windows software that runs their computers, blocks certain websites, restricts access to the Control Panel, certain documents and more. Computer monitoring software as well as computer data backup software is analyzed and certain products recommended to ensure the best internet security against children viewing adult content and all your pictures and emails are backed up. Precautions for identity theft and identity theft prevention are also explained at the Parents Learning Center".

Clyde revealed that "Spyware removal products are talked about and a list of products and advice is given on how to redirect children's web activities and to change certain computer settings when necessary. Computer viruses are always a threat and certain computer virus protection software and antivirus software are also recommended by the internet safety center, ensuring the best protection of computers and computer data at all times. Internet Safety Center also informs parents of the best parental control software available for Windows and how the Microsoft Windows update can be accessed to ensure that all computers stay updated as far as protection from worm viruses, malware and many other harmful attacks are concerned".
