You Need a Better Internet Security Solution Computer users who send and receive emails, download files, shop or play games on the Web, bank online, or participate in other online activities need to do a better job of protecting their computer and the privacy of their personal information. National statistics back up the need for better computer protection services:
Consumer Reports 2005 State of the Net Survey
- Internet users at home have a 1-in-3 chance of suffering computer damage, financial loss, or both because of computer viruses or spyware that sneak onto their computers.
- American consumers spent $2.6 billion on protection software over the past two years. Over that same time period, $9 billion was spent on computer repairs.
2005 Pew Internet Spyware Report
- 68% of home Internet users have experienced at least one computer problem in the past year that is consistent with problems caused by spyware or viruses.
- 52% of home Internet users say their computer has slowed down or is not running as fast as it once did.
2004 AOL/National Cyber Security Alliance Study
- 53% of respondents said they had spyware or adware on their computers, but a scan of their machines revealed that 80+% of the respondents actually had those programs installed.
- Majority of computer users who had anti-virus protection software did not install it correctly or it wasn't up-to-date.
With billions being spent on computer security software, why does the problem continue to grow? The reason is the majority of consumers rely on software in a box product, freeware, or a mix of both. This product approach requires users to pick the right mix of product, install, support, and keep them updated.
