Computer tip – don’t pay for antivirus software

Hi friends/family. I have a quick computer tip for everyone – don’t pay for antivirus software. I use Microsoft’s free AV software, but there are others that are free and good. I just like Microsoft’s because it doesn’t slow down your computer and integrates into Windows Update to stay up to date. By the way, you should make sure Windows Update is setup to automatically update your computer so that your system stays patched up and protected.

If you want more of an explanation, there is a pretty good article about this on lifehacker. They also list some other tips on keeping your computer protected, so it’s worth a glance.

Oh yea, the post with pictures from our house showed me using a Mac. I’ve decided to switch to macs because they are perfect and never have bugs. Just kidding. The real reason we have a mac is because Leslie’s school gave her one to use and so I was using it when she took the picture.

This concludes the most boring, word-filled post ever made on our blog. Hope someone finds it useful :) Good night!
