How do I protect my PC from spyware?

A firewall is considered to be the most popular tool to protect a computer from spyware. Firewalls are integrated into operating systems (OS) and permanently examine incoming and outgoing addresses to computer network ports. They analyze data packages coming to Internet ports and mail ports according to the type of request and the addressee. Most firewalls allow or deny some types of addresses, but this is a weak point because spyware may be integrated inside many packages or disguised as a Web browser. This type of spyware cannot be detected by a firewall, and gets inside the PC to start its malicious activity. Also, firewalls are usually resource-consuming, so the price for relative security is your PC running much slower.

The problem of firewall relative protection is successfully solved by proactive security systems. Such systems analyze all application activity on the PC for its potential maliciousness, according to predefined rules of malicious or non-dangerous behavior. In case of a real threat, proactive systems block dangerous programs before any damage to the OS is done.
