Having a regular scan by an authentic PC scan program is extremely important for your computer. When if comes to the free PC scan and diagnosis programs I am a big pro. These programs do not cost a penny and protect your computer from so many malicious programs and malwares.
Following are the potential benefits and advantages that a free PC scan and diagnosis program can offer. First of all, a free PC scan and diagnosis program can keep you safe from hackers, intruders and other internet threats. Have you ever heard of Trojan horses, active Trojan horses or remote access Trojan horses?
Trojan horses are malware programs that are usually disguised as utility programs, games or other useful software. You can download from the internet, or can open them from the email attachments or they can enter your PC with out your permission simply if you are connected to the internet.
Once you open these programs they can steal your passwords or they can steal all the contacts from your email address book and can send annoying, irritating, threatening or deceiving emails to all of your contacts. Other than Trojan horses there are active Trojan horses or remote Trojan horses. Active Trojan horses can simply pass the control of your PC to the hacker(s). A free scan program can protect you from such happenings.
Secondly, a free PC scan and diagnosis can enhance the performance and speed of your computer. This is a great service and this objective is achieved by the detection of the malicious worms. The worms are mal ware programs that remain hidden in your computer system. The worms keep on replicating and executing themselves.
They eat up all the available active memory and also disturb the hard disks, which are meant for remote storage. Since they are hidden the user can not detect them. They make the computer extremely slow and it may give memory exhaustion messages even if you perform a teeny tiny operation.
Without a PC scan program the presence of the worm(s) is known only when it halts the computer and the Operating System crashes. And also a free PC scan and diagnosis can protect you from viruses. The viruses are self replicating programs which do not ask for your permission to destroy your information file, cause erratic system behavior and display obnoxious and/or annoying messages. Good PC scan software protects you from viruses.
The Spyzooka is one of the best free PC scans that I have ever installed. The earlier version was somewhat a beginner’s version and did not provide advanced security. But after I have downloaded the latest version I have noticed great improvements that many renowned PC scan programs do not offer.
