My Virus Prevention Trick Part2

This is My Trick for Increasing Windows Xp security

1\Use limited account, here is how u do it

a)click on run in start menu and type nusrmgr.cpl
b)Now click on create a new account.
c)type user name you want, and click on next button
d)Now by default computer administrator will be selected, click on Limited and click on create account
e)Now again click on run in start menu and type cmd
f)Now type Net user administrator Type_password_here
in place of Type_password_here type any desired password you want but do remember it as it is very usefull.

2\Make Sure your C drive or drive on which you installed Windows OS is NTFS else follow steps below to convert ur Windows drive to NTFS(Default is C drive)

a)click on run in start menu and type
CONVERT C: /FS:NTFS /V

The above command will convert your C drive to NTFS without any data loss.

Its recommended that you convert all your drives to ntfs for security but if you have older operating system that win 2000(Windows 98 ,Me) you better Not convert other drives to NTFS


3\Now logoff and login to that new account you created which should be available on welcome screen.

4\This is limited account so you wont be having any right access over C drive, good part is even if any virus executes even it wont be having any access to C drive so it cant cause any harm.

5\If you need to install any software, just right click on its setup/installation file and click on run as administrator and in place of password type password you previously set(step 1.d)

Now that that application will run without any problem.

These are the steps to follow to increase you system security to the max to prevent Virus Attack But Its always recommended that you install a good Antivirus for Full Security.

I recommend Avira Antivirus
