| Ok, so there is ALOT of stuff happening on the internet now days. And alot of shit is happening to people. They are getting Java Drive-byed, Trojaned, Social Engineered, hacked from their root, their internet is being DDoSed, or their website was hacked/defaced. I don't know much about hacking websites, and nether less protecting them, but I can help you protect your computer. Too Protect against Malware/Trojans:
- Don't download/run anything suspicious.
- If something pops up saying shit like "Windows update" and it is in like AppData and doesn't say the company
- Windows, run a virus scan/take your computer to best buy.
- Don't run .mp3 or .jpeg you download either, they can be disguised, when they really are .exe .
- Use a virus scanner online, or you can buy really good scanners that come along with other stuff (I have one)
- Use Common Sense
List of good Virus Scanners: How to protect yourself from Java DriveBys:
- Don't go to untrusted/Unknown websites
- Don't Run java on untrusted/unknown websites
- Don't play random shitty games on websites
- Don't go to many random shitty websites (Some drivebys can bypass the "Do you want to run java?" thing)
- Use Common Sense
How to protect yourself from DDoS attacks:
- Don't give out your IP
- Don't give out your [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] (It can be traced)
- Use a VPN (You can buy good ones at [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], I use them)
- Don't call people in skype (That can be traced too)
- Don't join random servers (Even game servers like minecraft) because they can trace your IP right when you join
- Don't go to random websites (They can check logs)
- Don't open random links (Called an IP Grabber) (Yes, even bit.ly/goo.gl/Adf.ly/spam can lead to an IP Grabber)
- Set your ISP Package to where you can change your IP
- If you feel you are being DDoSed, contact your ISP
- Use common sense on who you deal with
