10 Biggest Brain Damaging Habits

1. No Breakfast People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level. This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.

3. Smoking It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar consumption too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air Pollution

The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation

Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts

Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain

Warning over fake Windows update Microsoft has advice about how to spot fake updates Users are being warned to watch out for a fake Microsoft security update. Circulating as an e-mail the fake message points people at a bogus website that claims to host critical security updates.

But anyone downloading from the site will get a virus installed that opens a backdoor into their computer the program's creators can exploit.

Security firms and Microsoft urged users to ensure they visit legitimate sites when downloading updates.

Fake sites

Anti-virus firm Sophos spotted the e-mail which uses subject lines saying "Urgent Windows Update" and "Important Windows Update"

In the body of the message is a web link that looks like it should link to the Windows Update website but in fact links to a site controlled by the malicious hackers.

STAYING SAFE ONLINE Install anti-virus softwareKeep your anti-virus software up to dateInstall a personal firewallUse Windows updates to patch security holesDo not open e-mail messages that look suspiciousDo not click on e-mail attachments you were not expecting

What are the threats on the net? Anyone downloading the fake update on the bogus webpage will have their computer infected with the DSNX-05 trojan.

This opens a backdoor into the PC that could be exploited by the creators of the malicious program.

Anyone falling victim to this could leave computer owners vulnerable to identity theft or having their computer used to send spam, attack other sites or host dubious material.

Microsoft said it only sent e-mails about security updates and incidents to those that have explicitly asked to be sent them.

Also it said it never sends out information about security problems before its website has been updated with information about problems.

This means that if users cannot find information about security problems mentioned in an e-mail on the Microsoft site, they should be suspicious of the message.

Microsoft also urged users to type in the name of the website they are trying to reach rather than use a hyperlink as these can hide spoof websites.

"Users must be very careful to be sure they are going to the official update websites, rather than just following links in emails which have been sent by hackers," said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at Sophos.
