Congratulations! If you've successfully followed all the steps in our Computer Security guide, your computer is now more secure from computer viruses, intruder attacks, and spyware.

Final reminders:

  1. Watch for new security problems: New viruses are released and new vulnerabilities are discovered almost every day. If you happen across computer virus headlines in the news, take a minute to read what's new -- it could affect your computer.
  2. Review the Recommended Actions at Computer Security.
  3. Return regularly: Since computer security recommendations can change over time, set a repeating calendar reminder to revisit Computer Security 1 year from now and every year thereafter.
