Surfing the Web with GreenBorder
Greetings,
Most likely the biggest source of problems that I encounter in my business is spyware and malware that has been downloaded from the internet. These programs usually download without our knowledge or permission.
Until recently I have not found a reliable way to combat these unwanted download. I have recommended using Windows Defender as one line of defense, though this product has some limitations and liabilities.
Recently I became aware of a program called GreenBorder. GreenBorder creates a virtual session in which you Internet Explorer runs. Since the session is virtual, the company claims that we are protected from all the malicious events that we encounter.
I have installed GreenBorder on two of my systems and have been testing it for the past two weeks. So far I have been impressed. I have seen no slowdown in response times and according to the meter, I have had many things blocked for reading and writing to my hard drive.
For the time being the program is free to download and if you give them your email address you get a free year of service.
Try it out and let me know what you think.
Marc
