software utilities
Online gambling, like surfing most major subscription based sites, often
includes a barrage of pop-up windows, cookie downloads, tracking applets and
the like. We highly recommend the following utilities to keep your computer
safe, your personal information secure and prying eyes from gathering any
information without your expressed consent.

SpyBot Spyware Remover
(Free) |
Spybot - Search & Destroy
can detect and remove a multitude of adware files and modules from your
computer. Spybot can also clean program and Web usage tracks from your
system, which is especially useful if you share your computer with other
users. Modules chosen for removal can be sent directly to the included
file shredder, ensuring complete elimination from your system. And for
advanced users, it allows you to fix Registry inconsistencies related to
adware or malicious program installations. The handy online update
feature ensures that Spybot always has the most current and complete
listing of adware, dialers, and other uninvited system residents.
Version 1.2 adds a variety of new and updated features, including an
immunization option that allows you to block many spyware downloads
before they get to your computer, and improved detection mechanisms for
morphing files. |

ZoneAlarm Firewall
(Free) |
ZoneAlarm is
designed to protect your DSL or cable-connected PC from hackers. This
program includes four interlocking security services: a firewall, an
Application Control, an Internet Lock, and Zones. The firewall controls
the door to your computer and allows only traffic that you understand
and initiate. The Application Control allows you to decide which
applications can and cannot use the Internet. The Internet Lock blocks
Internet traffic while your computer is unattended or while you are not
using the Internet, and it can be activated automatically with your
computer's screensaver or after a set period of inactivity. Zones
monitor all activity on your computer and alert you when a new
application attempts to access the Internet. |

McAfee Antivirus
|
Viruses can be
accidentally received through disks, bulletin boards, e-mail, local
networks, and the Internet. VirusScan offers virus detection, removal,
and support services to remedy this problem. The program scans all
system areas, including local and network drives, CD-ROMs, floppies,
boot sectors, file allocation and partition tables, files, and
compressed files. It cleans most virus infections from files, master
boot sectors, partition tables, and memory, returning them to a
virus-free state. Other features include a new user interface, support
for Windows XP, new Quarantine and Safe & Sound utilities, incremental
DAT file updates, and a new Installation Configuration Assistant.
