Recently more than ever I have noticed little software companies are popping up all over the world. Weather they are selling or re-selling computer software. Sometimes it may seem like they are scamming. These companies tend to trick individuals into thinking they need additional software to keep themselves and their computers protected . This post is about a recent experience. Below are a couple screen shots so you can have an idea of what to look for.
While I was trying to dispute the charges I was put on hold for 45 minutes. This leads me to believe this company is not easy to work with.
Here is their contact information:
Toll Free 24/7 Phone: 855-481-7237
32 Gopal Tower, Gopal bari, Jaipur – 302001 Rajasthan (India)

After closing the window above this one popped up:
So to calm your frustrations a bit, if lost and you think it may be impossible to recover your Yahoo password, just realize nothing is ever impossible… If you can get to the right screen you can enter an alternative email and or your telephone and Yahoo should get back to you within 24 hours.
Now for the explanation, Yahoo does not have a telephone support number. In fact neither do most other free email providers. The big three are Microsoft’s Hotmail (now called Windows Live Hotmail), Yahoo! Mail and Gmail, together accounting for well over 1 billion users. What it all boils down to is that if just 1% of Yahoo users lost their passwords that would be just over 3 million users. Although a large number of users recover their password via security questions, backup email accounts or by using mobile phone. There are still some that do not have this option.
Before you get upset, there is a perfectly good reason for this. Because of the high volume of fraud, Yahoo and others have a similar process. NEVER call a phone support number to get help with your email! This is only being done for your own protection. If you need help recovering your stuff you can always email or text, or cal me: 916.534.3245/matt@mdccomputersolutions.com

According to Tom’s Hardware with all of the spyware and malware threats we face online nowadays even Apple computers need protection. After their review and vigorous testing of several products they decided that Avira was their recommendation. This product is also available for your mobile devices.

K9 Web Protection
I usually recommend a free solution before a paid solution for software. In some cases where there is not a suitable free solution I will just skip that option rather than recommend one that I have not used myself. In this case K9 Web Protection is a software that I have used and trusted for years. The software can be downloaded and installed from http://www1.k9webprotection.com/. From the link previously mentioned you can read more about the product as well. In summary it works on both Mac and Windows platforms and is now available for iOS and Android. K9 Web Protection is free for home use. You can also purchase a license to use K9 Web Protection for business, government, non-profit, or other use. If you have more than one computer at home you will have to follow these instructions to get additional licenses http://www1.k9webprotection.com/support/kb/K9158.html.
