Computer Security for Windows XP

Microsoft keeps on updating their bugs and fixes patch. Hackers keeps on updating their knowledge on how to wreck somebody else computer too. I will share a good information regarding windows xp computer security. To keep your computer secure, turn on automatic updates. Seems like every virus writer has nothing better to do then attack Windows operating systems. Keeping the system patches and security fixes is critical. During the setup of XP Service Pack 2 with a new computer or an up-grade you are asked whether or not to turn on automatic updates, if you made the mistake of checking no you can find this option in the Windows Security Center (Start / Control Panel) and change it back. Even with all its faults, XP is a powerful operating system that has many good security features.
