It is important to keep the contents of your computer safe. Malicious and illegal programs can easily allow people to get access to your computer, which may result in loss of important information and identity theft. One way to stop this is by installing a firewall, such as Norton Personal Firewall. This will monitor the incoming and outgoing internet traffic, alerting you when suspicious events occur and letting you have complete control over which programs can access the net.
Phishing scams are also something to be aware of. These are illegal attempts for you to divulge your personal details, such as bank account information, but pretending to be a legal site. Norton Confidential has antiphishing tools to protect you from this. If you want a more comprehensive security solution then Norton Internet Security might be a good choice, combining antiphishing technology with firewall and antivirus utilities, it protects your computers contents from a multitude of online security threats.
