Three weeks ago to the day my house was robbed in the middle of the day and I had to clean up the mess, deal with the insurance paperwork nightmare, and then deal with identity theft. I would have told you sooner but since I was going on vacation I didn’t mention anything because I did not want to advertise that my house was going to be vacant for a week. But I’m back and ready to rock and roll!

The Vacation:

I just came back from the vacation of a lifetime! My Mother, brother, son, girlfriend and I spent 4 nights and 5 days in Havasupai which is the scenic part of the Grand Canyon. We hiked over 40 miles in 6 days and my son, Adrio, was phenomenal because at 6 years old he was able to kick butt on the hikes, have a great time, and enjoy a once in a lifetime experience. I’ll share stories and pictures in the coming weeks.

For now I just wanted to let you know I’m back and there is so much happening in real estate and for real estate investors that I can’t wait to get you caught up with the market and tell you how to create massive profits from the opportunities being presented daily.

More to come…

FYI: But first I have to tackle getting a nasty virus off my main computer. I’m pretty tech savy but none of the normal software and tricks can shake this one. If you would like me to post some great freeware programs for AntiVirus and Anti Adware let me know by commenting in my blog.

    My frontline defense:

    avast! ( http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html)
    ZoneAlarm (http://www.zonealarm.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/freeDownload.jsp).

    Then, to be sure, several times a day (or at least just as I’m shutting my computers down) I will run the following, in this order:

    ATF-Cleaner (http://www.atribune.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=25)
    CCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com/) (NOTE: Run both “Cleaner” and “Registry” … I’ve never had a problem when I’ve “fixed” an issue found during a Registry Scan… but ALWAYS “backup changes” to be sure … it almost always finds an “Invalid Default Icon” issue with ZoneAlarm and if that is the only “problem” it’s safe to not “fix” it)

    On a regular basis (at least once a week) I will run:

    SpywareBlaster (http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html)
    SpyBot Search & Destroy (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html) (NOTE: Don’t forget to “Immunize”)
    Abexo Free Registry Cleaner (http://www.abexo.com/free-registry-cleaner.htm)

    About once a month (when I’m not going to be doing anything with my computer(s) for a while) I will run:

    a-squared Free 3.5 (http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/download/)

    And yes, you do have to update ALL of these regularly or they won’t help much (but everybody knows that already, right?). :-)

    HINT: To keep my desktop semi-organized, I put all the icons to these programs in one folder, which I label “Lysol”.
    NOTE - ATF-Cleaner does NOT install on your computer. This very small program loads when you run it. I download all these files into their own folder INSIDE one folder (which I label “security suite”). For ATF-Cleaner, I create a shortcut which I move to my “Lysol” folder, but you could also just move the entire file.

    I hope this helps!

    Without the advertisement for prepaid legal, I agree Avast is great and free for personal use, and Spybot makes a good free spyware tool. In addition, LavaSoft makes Ad-Aware to remove ad tracking and the like — it overlaps with what Spybot does, and it’s free. (yes, they want you to upgrade) Lavasoft
