by Alexy James Antivirus Technical Support

Mcafee Antivirus one such software which seems to provide a complete package regarding the safe and secure internet. It provides protection against virus attacks, malware attacks, protection against ransomware, phishing emails and many more such active features. The company promises to safeguard your computer from any sort of online and internet based security breach. Apart from the antivirus software a user must be learned and aware of the security threats present online. They should avoid by clicking "too attractive to be true" links and always remember that nothing in this world comes for free. So next time someone claims to give you a million dollar out of generosity, REFUSE them politely!

How to protect your computer using Mcafee Antivirus:

Mcafee Antivirus is one of the most widely used antivirus software all across the globe. Here I will discuss a set of instructions on how to safeguard your computer using the software. So follow the set of instructions carefully.

  1. Buy a genuine copy of Mcafee Antivirus from an Official vendor and install it on your computer.
  2. Once the antivirus software is installed, click on the utility icon on your desktop and open the program.
  3. Once the software is running, go for a complete scan of your computer, this might take some time but will give you a deep insight into your system and any issue related to it.
  4. After the scan is complete, the application will provide you with a detailed information of corrupted files and folders which might have been breached or attacked.
  5. The software will also present you with a number of options to deal with the problem. Like whether you need to remove the file completely or it could be recovered.
  6. Once the above procedure is complete, go to settings and change your preferences according to your need. Also, schedule quick timely scans maybe on weekends to keep a check on your system.

This is how you detect the infection and remove it using Mcafee antivirus. The antivirus should be allowed to make updates whenever available so that the threats could be detected at earliest. Although an antivirus installed in your system may help you in many ways, but a user must be aware of and alert of the threats internet present. In the next section, I will discuss some of the techniques to make your internet surfing smoother and safer.

How to avoid being duped or cheated while using the internet:

The Internet is a very vast platform and the majority of us are unaware of its depth and concerns it possesses. Here I will discuss a set of detailed points to make you a bit more aware and safe online.

  • Always use an authentic web browser for all your online needs. I say so because we are bombarded with new types of web browsers every day trying to give us some amazing gifts and services for downloading them which might sound good but may have great security concerns. These security threats are well hidden in the background or between the lines which a normal user is unaware of.
  • Do not click on links which are too good to be true, like someone promising you to give you an iPhone for free if you click on them. These are called click-bates and should be avoided at all costs.
  • Do not respond to any emails asking for your personal bank details and promising to give you millions of dollars in return. No authentic company or cooperation work this way and these are just online fraudsters trying to dupe you of your hard earned money.
  • Enhance your firewall security and set it in a way that it blocks anything or any access to your computer without your consent.
  • Keep your antivirus software up to date as viruses and malicious computer program are created every day and that is why your antivirus provider needs to update it as quickly as possible.

Hopefully, the above set of instructions helped you in making you more aware and knowledgeable regarding the internet.
