Give your computer a new "lease" on life!

Let's face it, many of us have computers that are either ancient or insanely bogged down. As an investor on the hunt for the latest property, nothing can be more irritating then having your computer take forever to open up that important document or website.

Have no fear! With these FREE and user friendly tools, you can have your computer back up to speed in no time.

Enjoy!

The following links when added to your computer will protect it, secure it, clean it.

1. AVG Antivirus - Greatest antivirus I have found. I've placed this on computers that 7 year olds use. Why is this a good judge of quality? Think whack 'o mole with popups... they can't help but click on anything that pops up.

2. Zone Alarm - Need a solid firewall? Have no idea what a firewall is? That's okay! Install this to keep the bad guys from hacking into your system. Lot's of popup questions about whether you want an application to connect to the internet at first.... Basic rule - If you open an application and the Zone Alarm window asks if you want to give the application permission then give it approval..... if it randomly pops up and ask if some weird application like PwnUrSystem can have access... then deny. After about a week, it will remember all your choices and you shouldn't see much of it.

3. Glary Utilities - Weird name but great tools. It slices, it dices, it defrags registries. This is a top application for cleaning up your system to increase performance. It has a pretty easy interface that allows you to click a button and let it do its thing. If you have a slow computer and have removed all the spyware and virus' then this is the next step.

4. Advanced System Care Free - Same as Glary, just another tool that some people like more. Won't kill your system to have both on there so try both out and decide which you like more!

5. Advanced Privacy Cleaner - For those that are currently designing top secret cheater apps for Words With Friends, this application can erase not only your web tracks but documents on your computer. With deletion algorithms used by the military, what you delete is pretty much gone. Remember friends, deleting to recycle bin and clearing it does not remove from your computer.... This tool will.

6. LogMeIn - When you download all of the above and get completely confused, just download logmein. It allows remote access to your computer in a way that you can control. Gone are the days of a tech having to come out to your house and work on a computer, now they can play WoW at midnight while fixing your issues. You wake up and your computer is nice and running like its supposed too! I use this on over 20 computers and have never had an issue with security.
