Adobe Reader Setting to Change

So you need to know what the criminal attackers are exploiting so you can defend against it. Adobe Reader/Acrobat and Adobe Flash are at the top of the list. Earlier I wrote about turning off Javascript in Adobe Reader in this post. I come to you with another setting to change. Pull up your Adobe Reader and then go to Edit>Preferences:

Find the category Trust Manager and highlight it, then uncheck the box seen below in this image.

Trying to stay secure is always a moving target. Setting these options as I have mentioned will help protect against current attacks going on now in the wild.

Stay safe and have a great weekend.

CCleaner A Good Tool for Your Toolbox

OK, I have a tool for you to check out if you are a Windows user. The tool is called CCleaner. Click here for additional information. I'm going to give you some things I like about it. First of all, it is a free tool. I recommend you download it use it on a regular scheduled basis.

It combines a system cleaner that cleans your PC of unused temporary files from your PC. On top of that, it also has a great registry cleaner too. The reason you want to run this is that it allows you to keep your Windows system running faster and it also frees up hard drive space. It also has a nice section that helps you clean up all those tasks that happen when your system starts up. Seems like every application that you install with the default setup will always start up at boot time. You don't need to do this and this can slow your PC when your system tray is full of all these started applications.

Hope you all had a great weekend and of course ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!!
