Cory's Picks
- Adaware: Great free adware removal tool. They also have versions that provide better protection for free.
- AVG Anti Virus: If you can't afford, or don't want to buy an antivirus solution, give Grisoft's free AVG Anti virus scanner a try. They also have a spyware scanner that is free to use for 30 days.
- Firefox Web Browser: If you are looking for a browser that is more secure than Internet Explorer, then this is the place to look. The most modern version of this browser has a built in spell checker, tabbed browsing, and all kind of goodies that can be plugged in to it for a customized Internet experience. This browser does a much better job of protecting you against pop ups (though some still get through) and inadvertent virus installations.
- NEKtech: Shameless self promotion.
- NOD32 Anti virus: Good anti virus software can mean the difference between a clean and useable computer, and a computer that gets turned into a porn server (no really, this does happen). If you are serious about keeping your computer clean, then this is, in my opinion, the best solution out there. NOD32 has received 42 VB100% awards compared to Norton Anti virus which has only received 36, McAfee with 28, and Trend Micro with a mere 15 (as of February 24, 2007).
- Random Password Generator: Poor password policy is at the root of all evil.... Well, almost. In the Internet age, poor password policy can mean the difference between keeping your data, computer, finances, and other personal data safe or letting the whole world have access to every bit of your life that you manage electronically. Using a site like this one can help you generate passwords that are very difficult to crack and make things a lot more secure.
- Granton Bayless: Granton is a young child that we have supported financially at Central Park Christian Church. Check out his blog for all the latest updates on how this young man is doing.
