Author Description

A Windows security specialist offers non-technically oriented home and small business Windows users a guide to protecting personal files, avoiding viruses and hackers, and purchasing goods and services securely online. A slightly annoying authorial conceit is the story of the Smiths, a 19th century frontier family trying to protect their home and property from intruders, which is woven throughout the text.
