Signs of a Zombie Computer!
How to Secure Your PC from Becoming a
Botnet?
look up for these signs in your PC :
• Extremely slow performance of your computer
• Sudden or unexplained system error messages
• Frequent computer crashes
• Sudden and frequent closure of web browser without any reason
• Excessive usage of hard drive even when there is little data
• Email messages in your sent folder to unknown ids
How to kill your zombie computer?
Most noteworthy thing is that several bot malware
cannot be found by security software as these malware
install rootkit on the system.
Therefore, you should get an Internet security software
with an anti-rootkit feature.
Keep your antivirus program up-to-date and
regularly scan your computer system to ensure
complete safety of your data.
Ensure that your system’s firewall is activated since
it helps in detecting malware quite effectively.
Look for applications that are installed on your
system but are unknown to you. These applications
can be viruses, trojans or another form of malware
that are making malicious activities without your
knowledge.
Clicking on infected files, or installing malicious
software are one of the most common tactics that
are used to create zombie computers. Therefore,
watch out before taking any action.
THANK YOU!
