Responsible and Selective Downloading

October 24, 2011

Not every downloadable content should be downloaded for one’s own protection.  Sites we encounter online are not always what they seem to be.  Responsible and selective downloading is the practice of searching for relevant contents from trustworthy sites and downloading them with no intent to infringe on other peope’s rights.

Dubious sites are often the source of malware that can drastically affect computer systems.  Even sites that are considered safe and reliable can unknowingly pass on viruses after being victimized by malicious intent themselves.  It is considered standard practice to run a virus scan on any downloaded content before it is opened.  In this way, the protection is doubled instead of simply relying on other people’s promises.

Downloading that has been specifically allowed by content owners may carry certain limitations that users should be aware of.  Downloadable web sites, programs, documents, RSS feeds, flash contents, videos, music, games, or pictures typically provide the means to accomplish the task very easily.  Within seconds, the desired content is ready for use as files provided by the Internet host is quickly transferred to a computer’s hard drive.

The availability of a wide range of downloadable materials has served computer users very well in terms of having instant access to information when it is needed.  There appears to be no topic left untouched by the far-reaching arms of online capability.  Answers to questions are are just there for the picking.

One need not be a computer expert to master the skill of downloading.  In fact, the so-called computer illiterates among us can manage just fine.  As early as practicable, internet users should consider getting a downloading manager utility before the task becomes troublesome.
