Your Antivirus Not Protect You Always – Read This
I hear this comment in one form or another at least once a week and it never ceases to amaze me just how much ill-placed faith people place in anti-virus software. As I said to a customer just yesterday:
Virus and Malware protection starts with the computer user.
Sure anti-malware software will do a good job of protecting your computers but there is not a product on the market that is 100% effective, in fact the only way to guarantee your computer won’t fall victim to a malware attack is to permanently disconnect it from the internet and never use any form of removable media, of course this is entirely impractical for most people.
The Australian government website staysmartonline.gov.au is an excellent resource to learn about new and emerging threats and recently published the following article which I think should be mandatory reading for all internet users.

Testimonials
Very much appreciate your very quick response today. It was pay day today and I was a bit worried (that we wouldn’t be able to process the pays) but because of you all is well, so a big thanks.

They’ve gotten to know our business so well and they’re truly interested in helping us. It’s like having our own I.T. Department in-house. Australia Wide I.T. takes a personal interest in our team, our business and where we’re going. They’re like family.
Other I.T. companies just didn’t seem to have the same depth of knowledge as these guys. Rather than blame the user (us) they go the extra mile, locate the problem and fix it – Every time!
Coral
A very big thank you from me to all of the guys there….You make things so easy for us and are always available to help.
A massive shout out to the Nash though for fixing our printer – you nailed it Nash and not only changed MY life, but also helped to save some trees in the Amazon Forest!
Thanks to you all.

Alison
My business has grown from 3 stores to 5 stores over the last 3 years; one of the unfortunate consequences of this has been the fact that our old server and network could not cope with the growth. After much deliberation we chose Australia Wide I.T. to not only arrange the supply and installation of our new network, but to also provide long term support. We have been very pleased with our decision and would happily recommend them.
Bruce
We would recommend you to anyone, anytime.
Thank you all so very, very much for all your support. Not to mention bringing back my files to my Company. I cannot thank you guys enough.
Thanks again.
