What is the best thing for preventing rust inside computer?

Could you tell me if this white thing is rust or something else:

It turned red when I heated it with fan.
If you have any idea what it could be, please reply to:



Wow was that on a boat or something? Yeah it looks like rust, what I would
do is take it all apart and sandblast the metal then repaint it, if you
don't have access to a sandblaster I would put all the metal parts through
the dishwasher to get them good and clean, then dry them out and paint the
internal metal with POR-15 anti-rust paint, that stuff is great. If you
can't find that, some spray on Hammerite is decent stuff. Really though,
buying a new case is probably the easiest way to go about this, they make
some nice aluminum ones now that won't rust.
