    Secunia PSI is on that list and it's well worth it! Although having Anti-Virus/Anti-Mailware software is quite common, these won't protect from many know vulnerabilities in older software. Secunia is great to run periodic checks to make sure things are up to date (and it's free! :D).

    Nice! Thank you so much for sharing, I added WOT to my chrome browser and it's awesome! It's amazing how many of those seemingly safe sites are actually not safe at all! Specially when searching for pictures, wow...

    Thank you for the article. It would definitely help; I've been planning on bringing my laptop while on vacation, and I was really worried that someone might be able to access my information remotely. Thank you for this, I may try them out while I'm still using desktop, and transfer them when I get myself a traveling laptop.
