Numerous dangerous viruses use the same strategies to reach their victims. Your caution can prevent these methods form succeeding. All you should do is to be vigilant and doubting. When you start an installation process, opt for red flags. Be extra careful when you install free software. If you are offered an Advanced/Custom installation option, by all means, select it. Under it, you will be presented with a list of all extra apps that are about to be installed. Many software developers attach additional programs to the payload files of their applications. These extras, more often than not, are malicious. You can deselect them under the Advanced Setup. If you use the Standard option, on the other hand, these extras will be installed automatically.
