| Clean your PC and Protect your Privacy
We might not realise it, but everything we do on our computers
create impressions and can be traced; even weeks, months and
years afterwards. Documents we have read, letters we’ve written
to friends and co-workers, pictures and film clips we’ve viewed,
web sites we’ve visited etcetera.
If your computer is shared, sold, hacked or in any other way
falls into the hands of others your privacy may be at risk.
Today our computers are filled with information that it’s
absolutely imperative to keep private; including access codes,
credit card details, business secrets, and financial reports.
One other side effect of keeping all these files on your
computer is that they use up valuable hard drive space, thus
preventing you from saving those files you actually wish to
keep, like films and photos. Filling your computer to the brim
with unnecessary information will also eventually slow down the
systems’ overall performance.
The best way of securing your privacy and improve performance is
by regularly cleaning your computer from all undesired and
unnecessary files. Information is stored at several places all
over the computer, including cache memory, cookies, history,
recent documents list, and more. To be sure that you find and
clean all these spots, it’s advisable to take advantage of one
of the so called ‘cleaning programs’ available to aid you with
this. A good cleaning program should however not only delete
files in the way you are able to do manually, but instead
overwrite them with new information. Simply deleting files will
not erase them from your hard disk; it only makes it a little
trickier to retrieve them.
One of the programs able perform overwriting is The Webroot
Window Washer. This program will completely overwrite your
undesired files with random characters making them unrecoverable
by undelete or unerase utilities. To make sure that only
undesired files are overwritten, the Webroot Window Washer is
equipped with a File Protection System – a built-in safety
system preventing you from accidentally removing important
files. The Webroot Window Washer also features a Cookie Keeper
which saves valuable cookies to maintain your preferred Internet
settings and log-ins. If you wish to instantly shred a used
document a File Shredder is built in to the Windows right-click
menu, making secure removal of a document only a mouse click
away.
One other user friendly characteristic of the Webroot Window
Washer is the Customized User Interface. Select the interface
that best matches your comfort and experience level. The
beginner screen is intuitive and immediately allows for a safe
wash experience. The advanced screen gives you additional
options such as keeping cookies from a specific domain or
skipping plug-ins during a wash.
