Free Computer Consultant Tip-Of-The-Week e-Zine for January 18, 2008 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Easy Way To Update Your Computer
Are you letting Windows Automatic Updates keep your computer up to date?
There are reasons not to do that, but I won't go into that here.
The problem is that at least half of the security alerts I receive concern problems other than Microsoft Windows.
Java and Flash are 2 that come to mind, but they aren't the only ones.
Would you like a website where you can go to check your PC for needed updates and easy, click here type links to get the updates you need? (and it's f - r - e - e)
Of course you would!
It just can't get any easier! (Unless you can talk someone else into doing it for you, that is)
"Who offers this?", you might ask.
Answer: Secunia.com
"Why?", you ask.
Answer: because they do sell security services to the corporate world.
But YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY ANYTHING, just use their free service, and it's cool with them.
Here's the full link for the Secunia Software Inspector: http://secunia.com/software_inspector/
One more cool thing about the Secunia Software Inspector, you can use Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Opera.

Buy from the best and SAVE $$.
Buy from the best and shop easy knowing there is service if you need it.
These are online retailers that I use every week in my professional business and I whole heartedly recommend each and every one of them.
Good product, good price, good service.
