Penjagaan Komputer (Bahagian 1)
Oct 27th
Kali ini saya akan menerangkan kepada anda mengenai kenapa kita perlu melindungi komputer anda daripada ancaman spyware dan juga adware. Terlebih dahulu, mari kita renung takrif-takrif yang tersenarai di bawah.
Takrif (daripada Wikipedia)
Adware – (computing): A software application that includes advertisements, which are displayed while the software is running. Developers use adware as a source of income and to keep the costs of the software down (usually making it free). Some adware programs can include spyware.
Spyware – (Internet) programs that surreptitiously monitors and reports the actions of a computer user.
Perlindungan: sesuatu yang mandatori
Kenapa saya berkata sedemikian rupa? Kerana pada zaman sekarang, banyak orang bergantung kepada internet. Kadar penggunaan internet juga semakin meningkat dari hari ke hari. Dalam pada masa yang sama, ramai ingin mengambil kesempatan atas ‘kebanjiran’ orang di Internet. Kita disogokkan dengan pelbagai kandungan, dan kebanyakannya akan mendatangkan masalah kepada kita di kemudian hari. Untuk mengelakkan sebarang permasalahan timbul, komputer anda perlu dilindungi dan dipastikan ‘imun’ daripada segala anasir-anasir negatif yang akan membawa seribu satu masalah kepada anda.
Masalah apa yang mereka bawa?
Mereka, dalam bentuk adware atau spyware, akan melakukan sesuatu terhadap komputer kita. Antaranya ialah:
- Mengintai tabiat surfing kita – Apabila sesuatu spyware masuk dalam komputer kita, ia akan bertindak seperti spy. ia akan melihat segala laman-laman web yang pernah kita lawati.
- Merekod keystroke – Ia juga boleh merekod apa yang kita taip menggunakan keyboard (jenis spyware ini dipanggil keylogger).
- Memaparkan popup yang tidak dikehendaki – popup akan muncul dengan kerap. Walaupun kita sudah install popup blocker.
- Menggunakan CPU dengan kadar yang tinggi – Secara keseluruhan, ia boleh memperlahankan komputer anda.
- Menggunakan bandwidth internet anda dengan banyak – Ini merupakan satu entuk pembaziran kerana ia akan download iklan-iklan tertentu yang tidak membawa manfaat kepada kita.
Apa yang saya perlu buat?
- Install software anti-spyware yang cekap dan berkesan. Contohnya seperti Ad-Aware Personal. Anda boleh mendapatkannya di sini.
- Update your computer regularly. – Ini akan diterangkan dalam “fauzan.my – Penjagaan Komputer (Bahagian 2)”
