Prepare Your Computer Before the Family Visits

PREPARE YOUR COMPUTER BEFORE THE FAMILY VISITS

The good news!  Your family and grandchildren have decided to spend the holidays with you in Florida this year.

The bad news:  Your family may want to use your computer while they are visiting.

Be their hero!  If they bring their own devices - laptops, tablets, smart phones - they will want to connect to your Wi-Fi network to access the internet. Even before saying how much they’ve missed you!

Do you know the name and password for your Wi-Fi?  

  •  If you do, you will be their hero!  They will know how to connect their device once they know your Wi-Fi name and password.
  •   If you do not know your Wi-Fi name and password, call me and I can find it on your internet connected computer.

Security:  If you are going to let your family use your computer, you need to protect it with a  good anti-virus / anti-malware program installed on your computer.  I recommend Emsisoft Anti-malware and Malwarebytes Browser Guard. The protection package is only $50 a year and protects your computer from 98% of known viruses, malicious software, ransom-ware and malvertisements - and your grand kids browsing!

Enjoy your family over the holiday with the peace of mind that your computer is protected.

I am committed to protect your computers at an affordable price. Thank you for trusting me to keep your computers healthy. Contact us at 239-567-0104 when it is time to renew your protection software, discuss joining our Learn Computer training, or if you need computer and internet help. Be well.
