Install and Use Anti-Virus Programs We recommend that you use programs that can detect and remove viruses and spyware, which can steal vital information. Virus and malware can infect a home computer in many ways. Examples include through floppy disks, CDs, DVDs, e-mail, websites and downloaded files. Anti-virus programs help protect your computer against most viruses, worms, spyware, Trojans, malware, and other unwanted invaders that can put your computer at risk. Virus malware, worms, etc. often perform malicious acts, such as deleting files, freezing your computer, accessing personal data or even denial of access to personal information on your computer. If a file is found to be infected with a virus, most anti-virus programs provide you with options of how to respond, such as removing the harmful item or deleting the file. Installing an anti-virus program and keeping it up-to-date is the best defense for your home computer.
Firewalls: What They Are and How to Use Them A firewall prevents unauthorized users from gaining access to a computer, or monitoring transfers of information to and from the computer. Before connecting your personal computer to the internet, you should install a firewall. A firewall can be generally described as a security guard for your home computer. The guard is a piece of software or hardware that helps protect your PC against hackers and many computer viruses and worms. With a firewall, you define which connections between your computer and other computers on the internet are allowed and which are denied. There are firewall programs, both free and available for purchase, which provide the capabilities you need to help make your home computer more secure.

FIGFCU will never contact you by e-mail to request your personal and confidential information. Types of warning signs for Phishing:
