Security
Q: Why do I need to buy a separate security product (firewall/anti-virus software)?

Q: Why do I need to buy a separate security product (firewall/anti-virus software)?
A: When you have a connection to the Internet that is 'always on', it's important to install 'firewall' software. This will protect against the possibility that a hacker could try to break into your computer and access your files.

Anti-virus software will protect your computer from viruses that can cause serious data corruption. Your computer can pick up a virus from anything you download that has encountered that virus - therefore a firewall alone will not necessarily protect you from a virus.

It is possible to purchase combined firewall and anti-virus software which will effectively protect your computer.
