Sick of Virii? Get Linux.
Recently I’ve noticed a rash of Facebook based attempts to get you to install malware on your system. These strategies masquerade as a message from one of your friends that try to get you to click on a link that will then run a program on your system. Do you want to know a sure fire way to avoid these exploits? Don’t run Windows, use Linux instead. I know some people will think that you have to be some sort of tech guru to use Linux or they may not even know what Linux is. For these folks I’ll say that Linux is easy to use. It has lots of free software that let you create documents, browse the web, and do pretty much anything that you commonly do on your Windows system and, most importantly, it’s immune to pretty much all of the bad things that hackers perpetrate on unsuspecting Windows users. No anti virus software needed! Here are some links for various Linux distributions to find out more:
