essestials of windows security protects secure data? IE: forms, credit cards and other personal info?

Is windows security essentials, a goog antivirus & malware, and it protect me when shopping online or Bill to pay? (name of account #'s and credit card # "s and personal identity?)

If you mean Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) then it's a complete anti-malware program that offers protection in real time. Make sure that you get it from a reliable source that there are has many programs to fake on the web which are in themselves the malware. If you want, here's a real link to download MSE:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/security-essentials-download .

Software anti-malware is important, but there is more to ensure the safety of your data:

S ' ensure that you have a good firewall running. The built-in Windows Firewall should be enough for most people.

-Select Windows Update for the recommended settings for you sure get all Windows security updates as soon as they are available.

-Update 3 third-party programs such as Flash Player and Java they get security patches too.

Finally and probably also important that any software is the user who must try to keep abreast of security issues such as:

-fake phone calls for technical support;

-Send phishing scams;

-never joined unexpected opening;

-lottery scam emails.

etc.

    I have Windows 7. My old version of windows has always shown a lock when a Web site has been encrypted and secure. I don't see that now. How will I know that it is safe to give personal information such as credit card numbers, on a web page?

    Padlock is therefore more part of Firefox; It has been removed from Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection, but does not provide any additional information. You could make a typographical error, and have always been connected to a secure connection. The lock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site identity button. Familiarize yourself with the Site identity button at the left end of the address bar:

  • Recently, asks Windows to format my device in G: (SD card) and then he said: Windowns impossible to format.

    I've never had this problem before.  Still, I inserted my SD card then transferred my files from the same card in the same way as always.  He asks to format the device in the g and when I try, it says that Windows is unable to format... It is a huge problem for my work.  I tried an LPB SD card and the same thing is happening.

    Hello
     
    You cannot format a disk or partition that is currently in use, including the partition that contains Windows. It is a safety feature so that you cannot delete Windows by accident. To reformat your SD card, reboot your computer and try to format.
    Try SD card connection to another computer, backup the data and format the SD card.
     
    To format the G: try the following steps.
    1. open computer.
    2. right click on G: and Format.
    3. Select the NTFS file type, and then click format.
    4. click on ok.
     
    If the problem persists, connect the SD card to another port and verify its operation.

  • Windows blocked key after installing a new video card and hard drive.

    I got a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit edition since the early release, purchased through Newegg. Since then, I used it on my desktop, which I update regularly. I changed the hard drives, processors and cards video several times and reactivated without a problem, but this last Friday, I installed a new video card and the DSS, and when I went to activate windows told me that my key was blocked without any explanation. I can only assume that this is because I changed my hardware configuration. My copy of windows remained only on this computer over the years. Here are the results of MGADiag running on my system.

    If there is any question about the legitimacy of my copy, I have the DVD, booklet, cases, cardboard sleeve he shipped initially and purchase of invoices from Newegg on the spot.

  • To change the data of the credit card

    I tried to change payment details. Specifically, I need to change my credit card expiration date, since the current credit card is expired.

    I am a private so in the "company name" field before, I wrote "casa" (House). It has been accepted without any problem.

    Now, the system does not accept anything.

    I tried wrote the name of my company, private, home, casa, or leave it empty. Always without success.

    What should I do?
