Just now, I received a cryptic message that I had to decipher. The message came like this: SHX OGUONPR ZI RWP MAEJ ZUSBO-VCJSFPX OPKJCBLUSBP SGDURMPR

I went, “Uh-oh! How am I going to decipher that?” Here I am, someone who doesn’t even understand Da Vinci Code but luckily, I found a website to help me decipher that. Yes, I cheated a little, so? Hehehe

Anyway, the real message reads: SPY SWEEPER IS THE MOST AWARD-WINNING ANTISPYWARE SOFTWARE

I was pleasantly surprised, of course. If you have read my previous posts, you will know what happened to my computer. My computer is a work tool that I can’t afford it to be down at all. I take care of it the best I could and protect it like I protect young and helpless children! That was why when my computer was cured by Spy Sweeper, I bought it straightaway.

And as a user, I do agree that Spy Sweeper is one of the best, if not the best antispyware software in today’s age. There are so many programs available but they seriously fall short against Spy Sweeper’s standards. I am really not surprised that it has won so many awards from PC World, Smart Computing, PC Advisor, PC Pro, Softpedia just to name a few.

The good news is that now they are offering $10 off regular price. I did not get to enjoy that when I bought it but I am going to spread the news to friends whom I know need spyware protection. Who doesn’t need anyway? A friend told me that the only way to prevent our computer from an infection is not to go online with it. Well, how could we do that when we have to work online? The answer lies in spy sweeper!

As many of you know, I am a freebie lover who scours the internet for freebies and contests! My, I have won many things when I was into this passionately but I am running a dry season here. Heck, how could I win anything when I did not even submit my entry?

Well, as luck would have it, I discovered this exciting geeky contest by the ever so generous Colleen. Every month, she will be hosting a contest and giving away geeky prizes where the winner will be decided in a drawing. Now, living in Malaysia, I always feel sidelined by companies who are running contests but Colleen is opening up her contest to anyone living in any corner of the world. Not only is she forking out the prizes from her own pocket, she is also going to pay for international shipping. All together now.. aaawww

For the month of June, from 1st until 21st of the month, the grand prize is a 1GB flash drive while the booby prize is a Futurama DVD. Now, the flash drive will definitely come in handy because I will be buying a laptop soon. Even though I already have two desktops, one has a faulty floppy drive and I could only transfer my files via USB ports and I don’t even have a flash drive *gasp*

With the addition of a laptop, I would be having a difficult time transferring files from either one of the machines to the other or both. Now you understand why a flash drive would come in so handy!

I don’t even know why I am letting you know about this contest and dilute my own chances at winning but hey, the more the merrier, you know? If you would like a shot at winning a prize off Colleen, hop over to her blog, Geeky Speaky, to read the rules and regulations.

May the best win! Good luck!

I went to my friend’s house and we played some computer games and was shocked to discover that he did not protect his computer with an anti-virus program. Well, he is a guy and he should know!

Last month, my computer was stricken with a Trojan that totally crippled it. I couldn’t even use it at all. I connect to the internet and it could but none of the data from the internet could be displayed on screen. It was very weird.

I could not even research on my problem online because none of the web pages would open! I called up my regular technician and he told me to run my anti-virus program which I did. He told me to empty my virus vault, defragment my disks and then restart my computer which I also did.

After three hours, I gave up! I was about to cry even because I had so much work pending to do and here my work tool is broken!

My technician took pity on me and told me to bring in the computer so that he could run Spy Sweeper for me since I do not have it. Viola, it just took a little while to catch that culprit. Spy Sweeper was so effective that I bought it right there and then.

No way do I want to ever experience that again! My friend accused me of visiting porn sites and other junk sites but I swear I never! Trojans, spies and viruses could lurk in any websites and then pounce on unsuspecting visitors. It is best to keep the computer protected at all times, you know?
