Dangerous desktop viruses that steal your passwords can easily be thwarted by using these desktop security tools. The automation is gravy! The biggest danger is when a virus captures your username and password by storing and forwarding your keystrokes. Use the following Windows tools to avoid having to enter passwords every time you login to a website.
Roboform – this tool will put wheels on your online life. With one click Roboform form completion will:
1. browse to a page
2. enter your login details
3. click the submit button
You can also use Roboform to securely save important information like SSN, and security sensitive logins like bank accounts.
Roboform is extremely secure. There is one master password that gets you into all of your accounts, and the timeout setting is determined by you. So, there is a security hole if you use keystrokes to enter your master password – which leads us to the next tool…
MultiMacro – This macro tool allows you to save keystrokes without typing them. With one keystroke you can enter large blocks of text, or the master password used in Roboform. There are many types of macros you can create as well as use VBScript to customize the application.
G Data InternetSecurity 2011- lastly, you need a solid antivirus tool. Recently I was on the phone with a friend when he guided me to a website he had recently completed. We both browsed to the site and he said “Wow, that’s weird. The page opened then went away and now my computer is doing strange things.” On my end Firefox popped up a window that said my antivirus stopped me from opening this page. It took his IT team a whole day to clean the virus off of his computer. Buy G Data InternetSecurity 2010 for safe browsing and computing. This G Data product took top honors in the PC World Antivirus review.
