Just a word though about downloading tracks in general. Karaoke downloads are generally like any other downloads. Please be aware that there are a lot of unscrupulous people out there on the world wide web who want to scam you any way they can. When you download ANYTHING to your PC there is a chance that you might be inviting viruses, adware or spyware onto your PC. Ensure that your PC is fully protected BEFORE you do any karaoke downloads.

Viruses are malicious programs or code which literally infect your computer causing it to malfunction and/or do unexpected things. Before you even think about downloading files from the internet please ensure that your anti-virus software is up to date and that you have an active firewall installed. Windows has a built in firewall but you would not be wise to rely on this alone. Always ensure that your anti-virus software automatically updates whenever you are connected to the web, otherwise the latest worm or Trojan may gain access to your system prior to the updates to your software being installed. My preferred anti-virus software is by Kapesrsky Lab one of the world leaders in anti-virus software. I recommed their all in one Internt Security package which includes anti-virus protection, anti-spyware and a firewall.

Spyware and Adware are fast overtaking email spam as the biggest problem on the internet. These programs are delivered together with what ever you have downloaded, usually without your knowledge. Spyware typically monitors your web surfing habits and reports it back to the spyware originator and there is some evidence to suggest that your personal details could be vulnerable. Adware similarly places a program on your PC which will deliver to you annoying and irrelevant pop up adverts whilst surfing the net. Both spyware and adware are a serious infringement of your privacy. Even if your anti-virus software claims to stop spyware and adware, I strongly recommend that you have seperate spyware protection.

If you have no protection and/or you have noticed these annoying pop ups I strongly suggest that you click here to perform a free scan with Stopzilla in order to see how bad the situation is. This program specifically targets spyware and malware. You will only have to pay for the program to remove the spyware/adware not for the initial scan. Another thing to bear in mind is that a quite a few of the providers of anti-spyware products will actually pollute your system with spyware when you download their program. In essence you are simply changing one lot of spyware for some more. Therefore use a renowned anti-spyware provider such as Stopzilla.
