Secure Browsing

Since most malware gets to our computers through our browsers, we should use every tool we have to protect ourselves.

As mentioned before, I use Google Chrome for several reasons.
1. It runs sand-boxed
2. It has malware warning. If you attempt to navigate to a known bad site it will give you a warning.
3. It has several extensions which will help protect you and make your browsing more enjoyable.

The extensions I use include Adblock, Flashblock, and Web of Trust (WOT) which gives your search results ratings as to safety.

Happy surfing!
