Apologies for my stupidness in advance.
I have installed avast home edition several months ago and it works fine. It has successfully warned me about a website I was trying to access and seems to merrily get on with things without my involvement (which is what I want). However my question is.....do I need to be doing anything else to ensure I am staying virus free?
I understand that I can scan new files and drives and data CD's etc if I wish...but aside from that should I be doing anything else. The "Help" screen doesn't actually say for us complete novices..."install the software and only act when you get an alert...except when you want to scan a specific file for viruses".
Can someone please advise?
Thanks
Eddie
