A New Year's Resolution That's Easy To Keep

With New Year's here, we all will be making a bunch of resolutions. None of which we will end up keep through the month of January, much less the entire year. But delete4good.com has a New Year's resolution for you that you would be wise to keep. This year you should make a New Year's resolution to protect your privacy. And delete4good.com wants to show you how to make it happen. And we want you to keep this resolution this year and from now on. I am astonished at the statistics concerning identity theft. The 2005 numbers aren't in yet but, in 2004 over 9.9 million Americans had their identity stolen. And if history repeats itself, well over 10 million will have their identity stolen in 2005. Yet, only a small number of us do anything to protect our most valuable asset-our identity. According to Forrester Research, 27% of the small scale companies do not even bother to use an anti-spyware software. Webroot's State of Spyware 2Q 2005, revealed that 33% of corporate PCs were infected with spyware. And, nearly 80% of home PCs are infected with spyware. The first thing that you need to do is buy a high quality spyware and adware detection and removal program. Delete4good.com recommends two great products. Then, the best way that you can stick to this New Year's resolution is make it part of your budget. That is of course assuming that you have a budget. Either way, just sock away $10 a month to put towards protecting your privacy. At the end of the year you will have $120 committed to protecting your identity. That's a great start. Assuming that you purchase one of the programs that delete4good.com has recommended, you will have plenty of money left over. Each year you can upgrade your spyware/adware detection and removal software plus purchase other items to help protect your identity. Those items can include a locking mailbox to protect thieves from stealing your mail or a good paper shredder to destroy all of personal information. Two other items that everyone should have is a good fireproof locking box or safe and a locking filing cabinet. They are cheaper than you think. More and more people are beginning to realize the importance of being proactive when it comes to thiner privacy. A great way for you to do something about protecting your privacy right now is to make it a New Year's resolution. And delete4good.com would like to see you stick to your resolution. By setting aside just a few dollars a month you can ensure that your most important asset, your identity, is protected in 2006 and from now on.
