Tools of the Trade

If you do your own webpages there are products out there that will certainly make your life easier. The list below are tools I use daily. No designer should be without them.

AutoFX is another must have set of programs. They provide plug-in or stand alone programs that help give real pizazz to your web images.Their programs include: Photographic Edges, Auto Eye, Dream Suite and Mystical Lighting to name a few.

Protect Yourself

Any of us on the internet need to be protected from any number of things.
Hackers, Virus, Identity Theft to name a few.
Since 1995 we have grown to trust a few companies. We have found them to be ethical, Honest and reliable. Some are totally free, some offer a free version with upgrade possible and others are not free. No matter the status they are all worth looking into. We have done the trial and error of software and companies. These are what we use in our own personal lives.

FireTrust:
If you are like me then you get a lot of spam. I have had days where I had to sift through 350 pieces of spam to get to the 30 that were ligitimate. I happened on to Mail Washer and tried the free copy.
I was so impressed I purchased the
Mail Washer Pro version and have liked it more and more. The Pro version costs $37.00 and is worth every penny.

This same company also has a program called Benign that provides e-mail users with a pro-active solution that eliminates all e-mail borne threats, both known and unknown. Protecting users from real-world attacks by removing any potentially harmful code that an e-mail may contain, Benign recognises harmful attachments, e-mail worms, non-standard HTML, scripts, web bugs and other e-mail borne threats, rewriting the message to produce an entirely safe e-mail. Benign sells for $34.95

Zone Labs:
Zone Alarm Pro ... is the best firewall around. With DSL and Broadband becoming the connection standard of the day ... everyone needs to be protected from invasion.
Stay Ahead of Hackers

Protect your computer from "Call Home Software". As you surf the net or install software on your computer there are unscrupulous companies that add little pieces of code that "call back to them" so that they know exactly what you are doing. What sites you visit, what products you purchase and who knows what else they collect about you.

LavaSoft:
AdAware ... is your answer. All you have to do is install their software and periodically open the software ... click a button and the program will scan your registry and computer hard drives ... kick out a list of offenders and allow you to click another button to wipe out all of the little nasty intruders. This is especially good if you have kids who surf the net for game cheats, music and chat rooms. You might be surprised what you have collected in a week or so.
AdAware

If you do not have a virus protection on your computer you are asking for trouble. In this day and age it's very important to keep your protection up to date. These are 2 programs that we run without fail.

EZ AnitVirus:
A virus protection software that you purchase (they have a free trial) and is updated frequently thru the year. After the free trial expires you pay for a year.
EZ Antivirus

Script Sentry:
This is a program that will filter all harmful code from your incoming email. It runs in the background and you do not have to bother with anything once it is installed. (So far it is FREE)
Script Sentry

Identity Theft

Identity-Theft is the fastest growing crime in America; 9.9 MILLION victims were reported last year (2002), according to a Federal Trade Commission survey! It is epidemic. It is nationwide. It affects EVERYBODY, and there is very little you can do to prevent it. You probably will not detect it until it's too late.
Your best protection is to be vigilant and perhaps join a service that allows you to monitor your credit, manage your income to work for you. Everyday Wealth offers this service for a small amount each month.
