Is your PC safe enough to do your taxes?
It's crunch time for those that plan on doing their own taxes and many will prepare their annual "blood-letting" to the IRS with tax software on their personal computer.
Over 22 million of you self-prepared and electronically filed your taxes last year and this year even more are expected to do the same.
But is your computer harboring any hidden agents that are just waiting for you to start entering your sensitive personal information? What should you do before you start preparing your taxes on your PC?
DON'T TAKE CHANCES! This week's topic is one that EVERYONE should pay attention to or risk being one of the 10 million victims of Identity Theft each year.
