(IDG) -- The recent outbreak of the "ILOVE YOU" virus proved a painful reminder that you need to secure your PC from cyber attacks. Using antivirus software to protect your system is just one step in the process. Limiting your computer's vulnerability to outside threats includes monitoring your Internet connection, blocking access to your files, and protecting your passwords. In this list, we feature files that help you keep your data safe.

Prevent hackers from accessing your computer with ZoneAlarm, a firewall utility that helps thwart cyberattacks. Hide files and folders from unauthorized users with File Protector, a shareware utility that makes files unreadable by others. Whisper32, a free password protection program, stores and encrypts your passwords to protect them from prying eyes. To find more system security files, click "More security extras," link below.

Top 10 system safeguards

  • SurfSecret: Clean up after your Web browser and cover some of your Web surfing tracks. This program periodically deletes images and text placed on your hard drive, as well as cookie files. Version 3.0 offers a new "Keystroke Wakeup" feature that removes all visual evidence of SurfSecret on your desktop until a user-defined hotkey is pressed.
