Free Programs = Bad Security
Don’t take anything for free. This is especially true on the internet. One of the most common methods of infection is to offer something for free. For example, you could go to Limewire for some free music. I can guarantee you that you will walk away with a computer glitch or two.
People give stuff away for free to make money. They make the money by using your computer as a network, by stealing personal information, or simply using your browsing habits to find marketing trends. They all take up resources and soon your computer will be down to a nasty crawl.
