2. Open Emails Cautiously:- Email is one of the common ways by which your computer can catch a virus. So, it is always recommended to stay away from SPAM. Open only those emails that has its origin from a trusted source such as those which comes from your contact list. E-mails can contain links that lead to a virus entering your computer.. If the email is not from a trusted source, treat it with caution...
3. Open Email Attachments with Care:- The attachment that the email urges you to open may contain a virus!! Make sure your mail manager allows you to preview the type of file (.exe, .com, .vbt in attachment are probably viruses)
If you are using your own private email host (other than Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail etc.) then it is highly recommended that you use a good spam filter.

So, here are the tips for safe surfing habits so that you can ward off virus infection up to the maximum possible extent.

• Do not click on pop-up windows that announce a sudden disaster in your city or announce that you’ve won an hourly prize or surveys. They are the ways to mislead Internet users and you should never trust them.You can also use a pop-up blocker to automatically block those pop-ups.
• Most of us use search engines like Google to find what we are looking for.It is quite obvious for a malicious website to get listed in the search results.If there is HTTPS:// SECURE CONNECTION then it is save to download the files & another option to use AVG LinkScanner to check the website is save for download purposes.
• While you download files from untrusted websites/sources such as torrents, surveys etc. make sure that you run a virus scan before executing them.

• Never open any email attachments that come from untrusted sources. If it is a picture, text or sound file (these attachments end in the extensions .txt, .jpeg, .gif, .bmp, .tif, .mp3, .htm, .html, and .avi), you are probably safe, but still perform a virus scan before opening them.
