Do you use good Anti-Virus Software?

Bloggers ought to be canny about their pc security. There are so many bad things that can find your way onto your pc, that it should be enough to give you nightmares! I don’t even want to get into the investment side of things!

It’s a priority for those of us who access our computers for financial or investment purposes to be extra careful. I’ll discuss my chosen route to software security for finances in a future post. In the meantime, rest easy, good anti-virus software is only a download away. I’ll be running a short series in the future on this issue… Don’t know exactly when! But soon!
Norton Anti Virus 2007 is an excellent choice for those of you running XP or Vista. Their Norton Antivirus Product Tour, or User’s Guide or Help & Support Forum should give you a much better idea if the product is suitable for you. In addition to the viruses, spyware and worms that are all common, I like the fact that rootkit protection is also included. Pretty much all the other features are standard: email, chat, updates, central control panel.

There are other anti-virus options out there, but whichever one you choose, for whatever system you have, make sure that you: run it, update it, and scan regularly.
For those of you using Mac, click here. But Linux users don’t have a choice here at all! However, do you Linux users lose much sleep over these kinds of things? I wonder…

Our Feed isn’t working well, right now!

I’m having problems with the Feedburner feed. I’ll try and fix it this weekend! Apologies.

There is an issue that must be addressed with your source feed for the feed “InvestorBlogger”

The URL you entered does not appear to be a valid feed. We encountered the following problem: Error on line 95: The element type “br” must be terminated by the matching end-tag.
(update: I fixed it. It was quite simple. I had two problems that I needed to fix. One lay in the format of a posting – a lonely
was looking for its soulmate. The bigger problem lay in the fact that I use a plugin, FeedBurner Plugin v2.2, which I had just updated. I forgot to reset the feed in Feedburner to the original feed, actually it’s an elegant solution, I just forgot!
Now I can fix the other problem with the .htaccess files so I can access my stats again! Yahoo! Things do get fixed around here. Time to fix the other blog, too.

Good Blogs: Dividend Guy Blog

The Dividend Guy Blog – One Guy’s Journey to Passive Income Through Dividend Investing »
I’ve been enjoying exploring this blog for a number of reasons. I can’t remember exactly how I came across the blog. But I bookmarked it for further explorations. so here are the reasons I like this blog:

1. it focuses on choosing dividends, esp. with growth of dividend;
2. it describes how to choose good dividends, with good examples;
3. and it also monetizes the blog in some interesting ways.

I think this blog is a very educational one, one that I am adding to my blogroll, and my daily reading!
