How to secure your Windows XP from Hackers

Microsoft is going to end its support for Windows XP from April 8th and in case you are addicted to it and don’t want to let go of it, then let us tell you how to secure your computer with this obsolete operating system as the vulnerabilities in this aging computer OS are vast, making it easier for hacker to steal your data.

Switch to Chrome or Firefox

If you were using Internet Explorer (IE) for surfing internet then you should let go of it as soon as possible because IE 8 was the last version that has support for XP but it has stopped receiving security updates so you should switch to Google Chrome as it plans to support Windows XP users as long as April of 2015. Firefox on the other hand has announced no such plans of stopping support for XP users. SO change your browser immediately if you want to carry on with Windows XP.
