Updates, Don't Forget

Most of us are familiar with the little pop-ups we get asking us to install updates.  While they only take a few minutes to complete, many of us are guilty of postponing them or just ignoring them completely. But keeping up with these computer updates is actually very important when it comes to having a healthy and secure computer. These updates are just as important as having an anti-virus program. 


 Some of the most common updates are:

  • Windows or Apple OS updates
  • Java (Update to Version 7
  • Adobe Acrobat Reader
  • Adobe Flash Player
  • Microsoft Office
  • Simply Accounting / Quickbooks 
  • iTunes
