If you examine the hard disk physically it looks like a box made of aluminum and silicon material. In the protective covering four disks are enclosed and placed over one another simultaneously.. Microsoft has made two types of file system for windows operating systems. NTFS and FAT file system which allocate and store data on hard disk. When the hard disk size is smaller then 4 GB then it is associated with FAT and if it is larger then FAT32 or NTFS or as the user may like. The files system draws lines on the hard disk to divide the area in different sectors and clusters. The size of sectors and clusters depend on the file system you choose. Therefore if you make partitions and choose different file system for each partition the data will corrupt or erased from hard disk. So its better to have a single file system with your different partitions of hardisk.

When you are using computer without anti-virus, there is more chance that it may get attacked by virus. As we all know virus destroy data stored in the computer and increase the disk space etc. Nowadays spywares and malwares are also attacking the computers. The hackers are using them as they quietly get into the computers without attacking the data. These malwares transfer the private info of the user to the second person without being detected. To hide there activity these malwares change system settings and activate user restrictions even your computer is not a shared pc or connected to local area network. Therefor restricting the activity of the user.
Following are some examples.
i) Task manager disabled
ii) Registry disabled
iii) Hard Drive disabled
iv) Hide Internet Explorer Toolbar
v) Disable Windows Firewall

The list is long. hence due to this privacy and the security of the user compromised. If you install anti-virus after this, it will do nothing to re-enable these options. Hence the window is needed to be re-installed. If the hard-drive is disabled the partion must be deleted and formated. While on internet there are many software’s Available which are created by user to help others. I have also tried these and there result is good. But it is recommended that Install an anti-virus (Avira, AVG, Avast). Update your computer regularly with window updates to improve the security of your computer.

Enjoy Happy Computing
