I've just finished looking at Cory's video and he is a life saver. He gave a lot of much needed information on how to keep your computer clean and how easy it is for other's to simply infect it. I thought I knew the basics on computer safety, but after watching this video I am a lot more informed.
My mom just recently bought my dad the new HP Windows 8 laptop. His previous laptop was slow and he often made remarks about other people tapping into it. My mom and I laughed it off and thought why would anyone want to tamper with his belongings. Now that I too have a more up to date laptop, I know a bit more about computer safety and precautionary measures. I wish I would have known all of this a few years ago, though. Fortunately my dad's previous laptop only had to be cleaned; no virus or suspicious activity was found. Now I can go back and teach my dad how to look for suspicious activity and how to keep his antivirus and other security systems up to date. I too will do the same.
