manager. password manager will not only remember your passwords for you, but it can generate random ones. erika: don't let antivirus software lull you into a false sense of security. most viruses trick you. >> if you install it, you're by passing your security. erika: antivirus software won't help there. many programs automatically check add honest likely click next. >> it's probably something you didn't want that's coming in with whatever you're installing. erika: that's not malware. that's junk advertising. but charlie says we're tracked all the time anyway with advertising. so by clicking on those add-ones, you're getting more junk in your computer slowing it down. but the passwords are really the key. and you should keep those pay-for password managers.
