Beware the Danger that is Computer Viruses
Anton Wilson

Posted by Anton Wilson On January - 22 - 2010

Computer viruses are basically created when a programmer creates computer code.  More specifically computer code which has the capability to replicate itself, hide, watch for a specific event to take place, and then deliver a destructive payload on a disk or in a computer program.  Viruses are able to attach themselves to basically any type of file; it subsequently spreads as infected files and is then used by other computers.  The effects of computer viruses vary, seeing as some viruses are extremely devastating, while others are relatively harmless.  Computer viruses are able to cause the loss of data, as well as destroy program applications, software, and files.

Highest number of Internet Users in SA, EVER!

South Africa has passed the mark of 5-million Internet Users for the first time! This means that more that than 10% of the country’s population is surfing the net which is great for internet marketing. This is the highest it has ever been.
World Wide Worx recently conducted a study named ‘Internet Access in South Africa 2010’, which found that the Internet User base grew with 15% in 2009, from 4,6 million in 2008 to 5,3 million last year. “The good news is that we will continue to see strong growth in 2010, and we should reach the 6-million mark by the end of the year,” says Arthur Goldstuck, MD of World Wide Worx.
“A sustained growth in Internet penetration is a key factor that will positively influence the economy of South Africa”, says Reshaad Sha, senior manager for Cisco Internet Business Solutions Group. “The varied range of application services and social networking platforms used by local consumers has fuelled the uptake that we see today.”
However, the growth rate has not always been this steep. From 2002 tot 2007, the percentage of Internet Users never rose above 7%. It was only from 2008, when the rate almost doubled that the numbers started accelerating.
