T e c h Ta l k w i t h T h at G e e k C av e m a n Viruses, Malware and Spam Viruses, Malware and Spam have now become the background of the internet. Because of this the people that make the operating system of a device have to take this into consideration. Windows 10 now has both a virus and malware checker built in, Apple control the apps and programs so much that it’s rare for something to get through. Even Android now has stuff to try and clean up your phone. All this means that nowadays installing software to do these jobs isn’t as much of a necessity, and in some cases can actually be worse. It’s worth checking to see if you can get rid of yours and let the system clean its self.
