               !

             Caution  If you already have an antivirus program, do not download another one, since
             these programs may interfere with each other.
          5.   Install and Maintain a Firewall Program: A firewall protects your computer from
               unwanted network intrusions by hackers or self-spreading worms that infiltrate your
               computer through open network ports. Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP and
               Mac OS X have built-in firewalls.
