Having a home PC scan program is just like having a virtual doctor available for your PC 24/7. It offers so many potential advantages and absolutely zero drawbacks.
The first advantage that a home PC scan program offers is that it keeps your PC in a good health. It achieves this objective in three different ways. The program scans the whole PC for any potential errors.
The first thing that it scans is the registry of the system. The registry of the system is responsible to keep logs of all the used and unused files that a system contains. Over the passage of time as the computer is being used extensively the registry of the system keeps on getting bigger.
It is saturated with the used files, the obsolete files, the unused files and the duplicated files. When the scan program is run it points out all such files that can safely be deleted. It deletes them with your permission. By this routine the speed of the computer is almost doubled and sometimes even tripled (especially in cases when you have used the PC very extensively).
Other than cleaning the registry the home PC scan program offers a check for the up keep of the operating systems. Sometimes there are hidden viruses called the worms are residing in our operating system without our knowledge. The home PC scan programs find them and indicate their presence. These worms eat up a lot of active and even the passive memory. This can not only make your system slow. It can also lead to the crash of the operating system.
The home PC scan programs also keep a check on the internet threats. The internet threats include the possible intrusion by the hackers and the possible downloading of the malicious software and the malwares. The hackers can attack your PC in several different ways. First of all they can enter by communicating with the unguarded open ports of your PC. The scan program has to keep a check on these ports too.
Other than that it is the duty of the scan program to scan the content of each website that you visit and scan each of your email and email attachment to indicate any possible threat. These programs block the content if they find anything dubious. You have the choice of unblocking the content. But I advise you to do it only if you are sure about the authenticity of the content.
If you want a proficient and easy to use home PC scan program then I highly recommend the Registry Easy. I am using it for 3 months now and my computer has not created a single problem for me during this duration.
