[...] Anti-virus software isn’t the only computer security toolUSA Today – Apr 8, 2008That’s not necessarily so. Fraudulent e-mail and tainted websites are more prevalent than ever. Spam, much of it pitching fake drugs and financial scams, accounts for 80% of all e-mail, says Symantec. The number of new strains of malicious programs increased fivefold in 2007 over 2006, and about 20,000 new malicious programs are unleashed on the Web each day, says AV-Test Labs. Yet most consumers are in a fog about the array of tech security tools they can — and probably should — use to protect themselves, tech security analysts say. Craig Spiezle, Microsoft’s director of security and privacy, says his own wife couldn’t tell anyone which security tools they really ought to be using. “The big challenge we’re dealing with is the volume and velocity of new threats,” says Spiezle… Programs such as AVG’s LinkScanner, ScanSafe’s Scandoo, Trend Micro’s TrendProtect, McAfee’s SiteAdvisor and Finjan’s SecureBrowsing grade Web pages as safe, unsafe or questionable. Web scanners aren’t perfect. But they provide a layer of protection against what has become cybercrooks’ favorite way to spread malicious programs: via the Web. “The more layers you have, the safer you are,” says Roger Thompson, AVG chief research officer. •Browser security tools. Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 7 and Mozilla’s Firefox 2, the most widely used Web browsers, both offer anti-phishing filters that alert users if they try to click to bogus websites set up to fool them into typing passwords and other sensitive data. Microsoft distributes IE7 with this feature disabled, so users must choose to turn it on.Related: Anti-virus software isn’t only online security tool [...]
