there are alot out there but as u noe



avg is the best that is out there



but also norton is gud, but it costs $$$
avast.com. its the best that ive seen and used.ands it fast to istall and free!
the best anti-virus is kaspersky



its not free



you get what you pay for if you pay nothing



that your likely going to get nothing or a bad anti-virus



such as avast
I have used Norton, AVG, AD-Aware, and almost every other one there is and DO NOT use them because you will still have viruses hidden on your system!



I use NOD32. It's the best adware/spyware/popup/firewall software you can get. Plus, it notifies you BEFORE your computer gets infected,unlike the others. NOD32 comes with a 30 day free trial. You will not get good virus protection for free. Your computer's health will only be as good as what you invest into it.
AVG . It's free.

it is probably just a setting. from a blank spot on your desktop, right click and select properties, select the setting tab on the colors section pick True Colors and on the screen area select more. I set mine to max but you may like is somewhere in the middle.

Go to the following page and look for the Green symbol to downoad a free AVG anti-virus software which is as good or better than those you pay for like McAfee, Norton, et al. I have been using them on two computers for years without a single virus or trojan getting through.



http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/...



Would anyone know where i can go to download free anti-virus software for free?software



yes www.avg.com
You can try AVG anti-virus. If you have Windows you could try Windows Live Care as well.
combine



"AdAware SE Personal" with



"SpyBot Search 'n Destroy"



and you will be ok for sure totally free fully functional programs recommended by computer magazines



AdAware recognizes viruses too so they can't latch onto your machine
download this. AVG a shareware program it has the option to activate or not. Good program..
if you have comcast you can download mcaffe, i would also recommend spyware terminator.
Avast is a free anti-virus program that seems to work well. I have heard alot of good things about it and I have had no problems with it.

Spybot - Search %26 Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S%26D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

When on dial up I paid for and downloaded Norton anti virus software. This would not load up onto my

I went onto broadband and took security cover through BT/Yahoo. I have now paid for 2 security items. How can I obtain a refund from Symantec for the first item which would not register on my computer. Symantec are good at taking my money but poor on assisting when there is a problem. I paid 拢39.99 and can ill afford to loss this money.



When on dial up I paid for and downloaded Norton anti virus software. This would not load up onto my computer.norton



Symantec is one of the antivirus programs that take most of the resources from a computer, making your computer incredible slow. I don't think there is any chance for you to get your money back, so just get a free antivirus software that works fine, much better than Symantec. You can find some antivirus programs, as well as other free software and more information on this website: www.kiete.com

easy you muppet dont pay for anything till u got it
I don't think you stand a hope of getting the money back from Symantec - but count yourself lucky, I have found Norton to be one of the most CPU hungry AV programs I have ever had the displeasure of using!



So you are at least spared the hours of torment watching your PC do absolutely nothing whilst razzing the hard drive like the end of the world was nigh!
div, you should have downloaded it twice, you havnt got a leg to stand on
When you take out an annual subscription for Norton anti-virus it is an annual subscription. If you have technical problems installing their anti-virus then contact their technical support.
norton is crap. get avast.



norton does not recognize new viruses, in fact i had norton before and my computer was shutting down by itself, then i did a thorough virus scan with avast and found 8 trojan horses that norton never recognized.

Use the online scanners initially to clean up your PC. If the first one doesn't clean the PC then use another. There are loads and they are all free!!



Then pick a AV software (like AVG or AntiVir , etc) and install it on your PC and update the virus definitions. These are free as well!!

I have a remote access Trojan horse virus on my laptop among many others.What anti-virus software should i?product key



If your computer is barely working, it will be a bit tough and you will need to be quite patient to get it cleaned up. The reason is that when lots of viruses are running, they slow down the computers a lot so visiting web sites for antivirus software and downloads will definitely take a while to load. Please be patient.



A good place to start would be to try to run and clean up the viruses online without having to download a lot of software and running installations plus reboots...



There is a company called Panda Software that has been rated very good by PC Mag and PC World. See the sources for the link.



If you are able to clean up a lot of viruses, make sure you keep running the online scanning tool by rebooting after every clean up and running the scan again until your computer is found to be clean of viruses.



Once you do that, it would be a great time to also clean up any possible spyware and adware that might be running on your machine. So make sure you download a really good AND FREE adware tool called Ad-Aware SE by a company called Lavasoft. See the sources for the link. The tool is free and all you have to do is to keep updating the definitions. As with the antivirus tool, make sure you reboot after every clean up and run the tool again until the tool doesn't find any more spyware or adware.

How I deal with my computer crash after I installed two anti-virus software?

My OS is Windows XP (SP2).



Now I can not get into safe mode to do my repair work. Moreover, everything is dead after logging on the mechine.



How I deal with my computer crash after I installed two anti-virus software?security



If you can boot from your original installation disk or your backup partition ( some computers like newer HPs with a single disk) then either choose repair or if you're experienced enough you can edit the registry to remove one or the other. If you can get in at all you can run msconfig (start, run, msconfig)and use a selective start to exclude AV from starting then uninstall one of both products and start over.



How I deal with my computer crash after I installed two anti-virus software?trojan

There is a definite problem between the chair and the keyboard.
uninstall , what you installed and then restart with pressing F8



it will take you to the system , choose safe mood



hope it will help you .



take care...................................
If it's dead, how did you logon??
\ reformat your comp.
Reinstall the whole opertaing system unless you have some important stuff
That's the main reason why I don't use anti-virus.
u shoudnt have two i thought. it can slow it down and overload it. if u keep trying it should eventually load up. good luck
%26gt;Yer gonna format and reinstall XP. Get real comfortable when you call Microstuff to get it re-initialized...I recommend a cooler of drinks, a headset (so your arms don't fall asleep holding the phone) and an extra pack of smokes...yer gonna be there for a while.



Two anti-virus programs are a real bad idea...they "mess" with each other. Especially if one of them is marketed by Symantec.%26lt;
2 anti virus programs on at the same time will fight each other.

Guyz can u tell me frm where i can gt an Anti-Virus software for my multimedia mobile?????????

Well, how about telling us which particular model your "multimedia mobile" is? Unless it uses Symbian, Windows Mobile or PalmOS operating systems, there are neither viruses nor anti-virus programs for it - and unless it uses Symbian S60 R2, you don't really need an anti-virus program anyway, because viruses for the other platforms are almost non-existent.



Now, maybe you don't know which operating system your phone is running - that's excusable. But if you had told us the precise model, I would have found out that for you. As it is now, the only answer I can give you is: try again with a more precise question.

Why do most users seem to think that because they run anti virus software that they are immune to at

Becuse they don't fully understand the nature of the problem. Many infections can be "invited" in as well. Running a current, updated antivirus is a good practice for the average user, but everyone needs to know that no antivirus is 100% effective against all infections.

Effective marketing techniques used by AV vendors, combined with ignorant/ uneducated end-users. An overwhelming portion of the computer owning populace has absolutely no interest in the way their machine functions, as long as they can get on Myspace and download mp3's. If they can pay 59.95, click install, and believe they are immune from possible harm, they are happy.

What are the risks to a business if there is no anti-virus software on it?

What are the risks to a business if there is no anti-virus software on it?stinger



you must have antivirus !!!



go to link below for help



What are the risks to a business if there is no anti-virus software on it?virus scanner



Computer viruses, worms, trojans, etc., can wreak havoc to any sort of computer, regardless of its Internet connection method. Some of these "bugs" can totally erase your hard drive and all saved data or entries. Some can spread through your computer and any network of which you are a part, and you can infect anyone who receives anything from you. Other critters can help a hacker steal your computer and/or personal/company information and let them use it for their own purposes, even buying things with your credit card, etc., which you will have to pay for. Anti-virus software should be an essential part of ANY computer, whether or not it's used for business or personal use. Any computer connected with the Internet is susceptible to viruses and other nasty things, so there's really no sense in setting yourself up for trouble. There is also spy-ware available for free downloads (such as Lava Ad-Aware and Spybot) which can protect your computer against tracking cookies which allow an outsider to know literally every on-line exchange you have on your computer and which will result in hundreds of unwanted pop-up ads, and which can permit others to pry into your personal financial information and even get your address, phone number, etc. Contact your local computer store, let them know what sort of business you run, whether or not you are networked with other systems or computers, and listen to their advice about which anti-virus program would best meet your needs. DON'T put yourself at needless risk. It costs very little to protect your computer, and a great deal to restore it if your memory is wiped clean and you're left with a useless machine.
Big companies have protection and still get info stolen and other problems. Having none is a good way to lose all information and any trust customers have in the company.
The risks are pretty extreme.

AVGFree at www.grisoft.com is the one I use, and I prefer it to anything N***on puts out.
I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from http://www.download.com/ I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps

you could try quickheal (quickheal.co.in), it works well and it might just fit your budget. It has all the features that mcafee, norton etc will give but at half the cost AND it's 100% Made In India. However, for using its recovery disk you will have to have original os license.



Whats the best price one would happily by a "Made in India" anti-virus software for PCs?worms



It would depend entirely on the reputation of the software.
Why will one go on to buy anti-viruses, when there are so many free ones available that are effective? And if at all someone will buy, then why won't he invest a bit more money to get sure-shot virus protection like Kaspersky or BitDefender? Unless your anti-virus is sort of super-effective, it is hard to gain market share.
sorry yaar...with the budget u r mentioning u will be looking 4 a log,long,long,long time...i'd say extend u r budget and buy Kaspersky internet security or NOD32

Should I have the windows firewall turned on or just use the anti virus software that I use?abtuvurys 2005



you shd use both as it anti-virus software ensures virus attack and firewall ensures no hackers attack your computer. double security :-)
You should enable your Firewall as well as your Virus Protection.
IF YOU ARE OPERATING ON THE OPEN INTERNET WITH YOUR FIREWALL OFF YOU ARE INVITING TROUBLE YOU WILL SOON RECIEVE----Firewall on /run anti-virus regularly---much less likely you will watch your programs melt like hot plastic
u should turn on the windows................
Both should be on...for more info look at your security center in your control panel.

What are some websites I can go to to download some free anti-virus software, and firewall protectio

if at all possible can you put some links on here, too?



What are some websites I can go to to download some free anti-virus software, and firewall protection stuff?vincent



Here's some ideas to "roll ya own" Internet Security Suite for free. Free is always the best.



1. For your Anti-Virus......(Always use only 1 A-V)



I like the AOL ActiveVirusShield. Don't let the name AOL scare you. ActiveVirusShield is made by Kaspersky which is one of top-rated anti-virus vendors in the world.



In recent tests, the most popular free anti-virus, AVG, was only able to detect about 82% of a very large sample of viruses. On the other hand, ActiveVirusShield was able to detect better than 99% in the same test.



Full test results are here:



http://www.virus.gr/english/fullxml/defa...



ActiveVirusShield has excellent virus detection rates and is extremely light on using your computer resources.



Updates many times per day to detect new malware.



Free to anyone, AOL member or not from:



http://www.activevirusshield.com/antivir...



2. For your Firewall..........(Always use only 1 firewall)



An excellent free firewall is Comodo Personal Firewall. It can pass firewall "leak tests" that even most of the "paid-for" firewalls cannot pass.



And Comodo has a great support forum. Where the CEO / President of the company might even himself answer your question! Check it out at:

AVG all the way!!



Excellent, and I can tell you a lot of companies use the free version, which tells you straight away that it is good!



Hi does any one know how and where I can get free anti virus software?adware



According to personal experience, Norton Anti-virus makes the computer very slow, but you can try McFee. I am using it and the computer speed is good enough. Get it freely installed from your computer vendor.
www.grisoft.com - the AVG home edition is free. Can't run it on Windows 2003 server, though (can't run it on any server - it's home edition...)
download.com
Bitdefender have a free version, but you know at 拢20 a year I have to say buy it, it's way safer. Most free versions have parts disabled, AVG is pretty good, but applications such as Bitdefender include Anti Trojan and email checking as well. and lets face it if you have anything you value on your computer don't take the risk.
I agree with everyone one else that has recommended avast I've used it for over a year now and it's been flawless.

im a norton fan but i had to use avg as norton couldnt detect a virus that hackers were using
The answer is a resounding yes! It's the one I use. It updates itself daily. I have it set to do a full scan every morning. You will find over time what a smart choice you have made. It is one of the best ones out there. And it is free. Congratulations! - C!
It's probably one of the better free anti virus's and arguabely the best. But it's not the best anti virus around. However while it's true that you get what you pay for, AVG is more than good enough for a free anti virus and I use it myself.
AVG is good cause it's free and it works.
norton is too bloated and hogs the cpu if you have an older machine..



hopefully you installed a firewall also, get zone alarm free if you didn't..



better solution to add a router with a firewall as well.. so you have a hardware + software firewall

you can find total free copy of node 32 unlimited but u need to know the installing procedure which is bit difficult. following is link and procedure.



After installing nod32 without restarting the OS and applying the crack, go to the nod32 system folder located inside program files where u should find a registry key named nod32fix, u should double click it and apply the key. After that restart the system. be sure to unplug the internet when first booting up the pc to apply the following step. After first turning on the pc, go to nod32 control center and open the Amon tab then click setup. go to exclusions and press add and then folder. search for eset's folder in program files directory and select it. there u have it, press ok and then ok to exit.



u have just made nod32 neglect the crack inside its folder. if u want to scan the pc later after updating it and the program happens to find the registry key and detects it as a trojan, u just have to go to quarantine and restore the object "it is the registry file from eset's folder.



follow the link and search for NOD32 in search window



Good luck

Vista machines now tend to come with either Norton or McAfee anti-virus protection which are just fine when configured properly. Another option is Microsoft's Live OneCare. Check the specs out on any anti-virus protection you consider using, but as long as you continue to update your protection and maintain your Firewall any anti-virus program will do fine.

you only get a couple of months free as i had same probs had to buy full version for 1 year subscription they dont tell you that when buy new pc or laptops got mcafee
The Norton A/V software is usually only a three months free version after which you have to pay a renewal fee. Personally I would recommend that you remove Norton with add/remove programmes and then get a free version. I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spy ware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/ On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. Hope this helps.
I have this problem with Norton. I went to Norton's web site for the fix. Since you did not state the name of your anti-virus software ,I can't be of any more help.

How do i remove Norton from my computer so i can install some different anti-virus software?

Uninstall any other antivirus and/or Internet Security program that may be running on your computer before you install any other Internet Security or Antivirus software. This can be done by going in your Control Panel under Add/Remove Programs. Delete anything that has to do with Antivirus or Internet Security. Then install current program that you purchased or downloaded.

Download a program called CCleaner(it's free and it's brilliant! They ask anyone who can, to make a donation, but you can download it completely free). You can then remove Norton through your contol panel %26gt;add or remove programs. Click on Norton and clik on remove. After you have done this, do a registry clean with the above program and you should be all set to install your new program.



If this doesn't work you might have to get someone to clean your registry by hand as it seems that Norton leaves traces behind that make the new program difficult to install. However I have done exactly what I told you and it's worked.

to remove spyware use ad-aware SE (free), and the best suite to protect your computer is Norton Internet Security. It protects you from hakers, viruses, worms, instant-messaging virus, etc.
Personally i like adaware for the spyware, and zonealarm for complete computer protection.
You can remove most of it by going to.... (on internet explorer) tools%26gt;internet options and delete cookies and files. I recomend Ad-Aware and Windows Defender (you can serach for it on the microsoft website) to remove spyware. Both programs are free

This is 200 past your spam blocker? Here are a couple of thoughts.



Did your volume of spam suddenly jump, or did your spam blocker just stop working? Could there be a virus that disabled your spam blocker?



Is the spam blocker on your machine or on your ISP (mail host)? Once my ISP changed the way their spam blocker worked, so all my filters that used to catch the spam had to be adjusted to the new format.



In the future to minimize this problem, I suggest getting a new email address for your friends and important email. fastmail and nerdshack are two good free ones where you can get pop access. You can also use one of the free temporary email hosts like spamgourmet to create temporary addresses for sending to companies or on lists.

That's a great question. And it is precisely why Panda Software launched their new "Infected or Not?" campaign. The whole point of it is to raise awareness on that exact matter (and, of course, they get to promote their new products).



They let people try Panda's latest detection tools for free at http://www.infectedornot.com , then they gather statistics from these free trials which are later published as an "Infection Index" (Infex)



The results are shocking. Most of the pcs are infected, even the ones that are kinda protected by some antivirus software.

I am thinking about downloading Firefox to my laptop. How does it work with Trend Micro anti-virus s

I currently have Internet Explorer and I am looking to change. My husband just brought a MAC so he has Safari. I have a Dell and just want a better browser, any suggestions?



I am thinking about downloading Firefox to my laptop. How does it work with Trend Micro anti-virus software?antispam



As I think your question has been adequately answered, I'll only add a browser suggestion. I primarily use Opera as my browser. It hasn't been around as long as Mozilla/Firefox which I also use occassionally, but I like it more. Unfortunately there are still some sites out there that aren't browser-neutral, though I'm finding it more and more rare to come across any that I can't access with either Opera or Firefox.



I am thinking about downloading Firefox to my laptop. How does it work with Trend Micro anti-virus software?avast



Firefox works fine with all major AV software.



There are things I like about FF and some about IE7.



Either one works fine.
You should have no problems.



Here is the requirements:



Software:



* Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) 6.0 or later



* Mozilla Firefox 1.0.5, 1.0.6, 1.0.7, 1.5



* Mozilla 1.7.12



* Display: Monitor that supports 800 x 600 resolution at 256 colors or higher

I am trying to set up a wireless connection and have been advised to turn off my anti virus software

I have CA security centre and there is no option to just disable it. Do I have to uninstall it totally and then reinstall it again after?



I am trying to set up a wireless connection and have been advised to turn off my anti virus software?antispyware



You should never need to turn off your AV software just to connect to a wireless network. If you have Windows then you need to get to your network connections window. To get there click on the start menu, then click on run. Once it opens type "ncpa.cpl" (without quotes). Then the network connections window should open. In that window you should have an icon for your wireless device, it will tell you if it is turned on (sometimes you have to turn it on, it won't turn on when you start your computer) Otherwise, you can right click on it and choose connect, and if there is a wirless network in the area, like say your home, then it will connect to it.



If it doesn't connect to a network, then you are going to have to find a wireless network. You are going to want to right click on the wireless icon again, and this time choose "view avalible wireless networks". This will bring up a list of all the wireless networks. You will want to choose your home network, or find the name of the network that you are trying to connect to and then hit connect. This should automatically connect you to the network.



I am trying to set up a wireless connection and have been advised to turn off my anti virus software?best antivirus software



Since you don't have to install any software (other than the driver if you added the wireless adapter), you don;t have to shut off your anti-virus. Just let Windows set up the card, view the available networks, select yours and connect to it.
good luck with that. some viruses trick you into doing this to send you a virus, spyware, malware, etc....



only trust if you have done this before....

Which software of Anti-Virus is useful for Macintosh?

I have some virus in my Macbook, so could u help me which software of Anti-Virus to kill many virus from my Macbook?



Which software of Anti-Virus is useful for Macintosh?antivirus protection



you can't go wrong with either norton or mcaffee. I prefer norton, but that is just because I got used to it as a brand name in the mid 80's.



Which software of Anti-Virus is useful for Macintosh?computer repair



Wow. That is a suprise to me. The only thing I would suggest you do is reinstall Mac OS with the restore DVDs that came with your MacBook. After you are done with that, try getting a program called ClamXav.
Stay away from Norton if your running Mac OS X. It'll do more harm than good. Use ClamXav, it's free and made for a Mac.



I'm curious, how do you know your Mac is infected?
I have the same question as Elbert. What is it that leads you to suspect that you have a virus? The Mac OS is designed so that any application that needs to be installed for the first time will have to have permission to do so, i.e. authentication.



Before deciding on installing an anti-virus program, run some diagnostic software on your Mac first. Run Disk Utility or Cocktail. For a more thorough check, get a copy of Disk Warrior (stay away from Norton) or some other disk repair program.



9 times out of 10 I have found that a Mac just needs to have a little maintenance done to it to bring it back to 99%.
Norton's was origonally created with Mac in mind, as McAfee was designed with Windows in mind.



You can't go wrong with Norton's in this case.



I hope this has helped. Good Luck!

Best FREE Security Software??? (Spyware, Anti-virus, Firewall)?

What is the best Security software that is free and include Spyware protection, firewall, and anti-virus. I currently have AOL Safety and Security Center (http://safety.aol.com). I was wondering if there is a better.



MUST BE COMPLETELY FREE (NO TRIALS)



Best FREE Security Software??? (Spyware, Anti-virus, Firewall)?antivirus scan



There's no best FREE security software suite. These utilities try to do many things and end up doing a bad job. You're better off using individual apps for a specific purpose.



Best FREE Security Software??? (Spyware, Anti-virus, Firewall)?computer security



The best free Anti-Virus programs are AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition (they also have free anti-spyware and anti-rootkit) and avast! Anti-Virus.



The best free spyware removal and prevention tools are Spybot Search %26 Destroy, SpyCatcher Express and Spyware Blaster. Each works a bit differently so having them all can really help a tech with pervasive infections.



You can find links to the download pages for these as well as other free software packages here: http://www.gara.com/freesoftware/securit...
Download Norton, AVG , Avast which are free antivirus software. They do protect your computer and you can keep updating them once in three days or so. Ad-aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at http://fixit.in/antivirus.html and http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html
AVG ,Avast and Antivir are free AVs....spybot search and destroy, ad aware are good anti spyware and Kerio, zonealarm for firewall...

Free anti-virus/anti-spyware software?

Where can I download free anti-virus/anti-spyware? I want anti-virus/anti-spyware that actually detects and eliminates viruses and spyware from my computer on a free version.



Free anti-virus/anti-spyware software?antivirus software



All of these are ones that I personally use and all are free.After you install any of them,make sure you update them to get the full affect.



AVG Removes I-Worm/Stration 路 BackDoor.Generic3.GBB and .GBC 路 Worm/Generic.FX 路 Exploit.WMF



http://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/...



Spybot - Search %26 Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S%26D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

Free, Effective Anti-Spyware/Virus Software?

Spyware and Viruses have been the absolute bane of my computer life in the past, and I'd like to make a fresh start with the new computer I'm getting. Can anyone suggest a free anti-spyware/virus program that is actually effective? Thanks for your time.

So many companies trying to make money by selling you products to keep your computer safe and clean, all of which are freely available.



Hope this helps.
You can free download antispyware 2008



http://www.antispyware2008.info which is an essential tool to keep your system free of dangerous spywares, protecting your privacy and your PC.



It also works very well for me
Avg it's highly reccommended you can download it from download.com but if you want a different version google it there is a lot of sites to download it from. HOPE THIS HELP'S.
I like you also had problems with the viruses and but after downloading ADAWARE from lavasoft and NOD32 from ESET my computer has become as smooth as butter.

Recommended free Anti Virus and Firewall software.?

I have been using the free Norton AV software that comes with BT internet.



Since updating it has gone from being slow to really slow and I need a new solution. It currently takes up to 5 minutes to be useable from boot up and around 30 seconds to open my web pages!!!



I believe AVG AV is good so I will probably use that for anti virus protection. I now need a good free firewall.



I would use Zone alarm but I believe the new one only works well with Vista, from what I have read on Download.com.



Is the windows XP firewall adequate to deal with most threats? I use Torrent software so I need to be relatively secure.



Anyone got any advice?



Thanks.

I have AVG and Zone Alarm,both free and very good.....
Go here and there's a whole list

MaCaffee is the best and is the easiest to use
go to download.com



and type in firewall



I think they rate all the downloads as well, that way you can see who likes what! Good luck!
personally i wouldnt go free i would simply download avg professional then get crack for it. if u wanna know where u can get a crack from email me and ill let ya know
Try Bulldog
AVG is wonderful AND free. I had McAfee forever and it really slowed down my system. Try AVG at:



http://www.download.com/3000-2239_4-1074...
avg is definently the best antivirus out. stay far far far far far away from norton it is a virus in itself. Spybot search and destroy is the best spyware scanner/blocker/remover out. get both programs free from download.com
Sygate Firewall is one to consider with a XP system.Simple but very effective.http://www.freewarefiles.com/program_9_9...
Avoid free *anything*. That's why you have problems.
i had norton anti virus and the firewall it made my computer slow and unable to get in sites and people contact me so when license ran out i got AVG free edition, zone alarm firewall had these for three years not a problem.

Looking for anti-virus/Internet security software.?

I'm looking around for anti-virus and internet security software - usually I use Noton Internet Security. Someone has suggested AVG - what exactly is this and is it trustworthy? People have also suggested free downloads such as lava soft, are these genuine and to be trusted, why is it free, what do they want from you in return?



Looking for anti-virus/Internet security software.?aurora



avast and avg are both good never had the probs i had with norton good luck in your search.



Looking for anti-virus/Internet security software.?download



I think you are using some kind of cracked software because free antivirus software is never as good as software that need to pay. you want to change because you are afraid ...
try avast or agv type in web browser any of these and you will get a free antiviris
Microsoft currently offer their Live OneCare for a free 90 day trial if you're interested in that. It'll scan for viruses, spyware, has a firewall and can help back-up existing files. It's worth a try maybe?
Have a look here for a huge choice of FREE packages http://www.winaddons.com/top-300-freewar...
You need a good antivirus and a few antispyware programs, here's a list of the best free ones http://www.basicspywaretips.com
i think the best antivirus is: avast home edition, its got allot of feeters like "p2p shield" "boot-scan" and it comes with a screen saver, so wen your pc go's to screen saver, it scans all your files!!

Good Call. Prevention is better then cure :). AVG is the best free antivirus. However for Spywares, I dont know yet. I have tried a couple, but not a lot of them have worked great for me. Checkout some reviews before you actually try the softwares. Trying / Installing sofwares and then removing them because they are not good, does more bad to your system files then anything else IMHO.
For antivirus try avg and a great one for spyware is spybot.

there are a few problems here,first you have far too many security programs running,the 2 anti-spyware programs you should use are spybot and adaware,uninstall the others they are not needed and are causing conflicts within your operating system



with reference to your anti-virus,avg is the worst possible program you could use,it has a terrible interface and its detection rate is diabolicle,it misses viruses and tells you that you are infected when you arnt



avast 4 is a brilliant anti0virus program(http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.ht... works well with the above spyware software



with reference to formatting your drive ,why not use a 98 or me start up disk,get one from http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm,dow... the 98 oem link and transfer it on to floppy by running the program.exe

Anti-virus & Security Software?

I am shopping around for Norton Internet Security Software for my laptop. RRP seems to be about 拢39.99. I have seen some websites selling this for less, some state 'retail boxed' at 拢34.99 and the same product with the letters OEM is priced at 拢18.99, what does the OEM mean, and what is the difference? There is also the download versions which also seems to be cheaper - are there any disadvantages to this? Are there any trusted websites selling this software besides symantec?



Anti-virus %26 Security Software?bmw



download *avast-antivirus



*ad-aware-spyware scanner and destroyer



these two are free and much quicker

Personally i would say don't bother with norton as it's not as good as it's supposed to be,and from using it myself in the past and others who have used it it slows your pc down.



i would recommend downloading antivira for free and using that,or theres always avg another recommended free one.



I use anti vira and since changing over from norton my pc has been working better and faster i would recommend using spyware terminator as well with this which is also free.Both prgrams together don't take up half as much space as norton either.
Why pay when you can get all you need for free: http://www.winaddons.com/top-300-freewar...
OEM means that the product is meant to be shipped with some one's equipment, e.g. bundled with say a Dell PC as 'free'. Usually, it is OK, but sometimes they don't have everything. E.g. an OEM DVD drive may not have all the software that the retail version includes. You have to buy by the method that is most convenient for you, and shop around.



But like previous answers, why not use AVIRA or some other free software. They are very good.
OEM - Original Equipment Manufacture (I think) but why not go for the free stuff instead of buying it - works just as well - to be honest I had Norton and took it off my PC coz it was crap - I now use AVG from www.grisoft.com free download and better than Norton -



You can also get Adaware free from www.lavasoft.de



or go onto



www.majorgeeks.com



and search in left side of window for all the free security stuff - works a treat

Give NOD32 a try, its not free though. Though there is a 30-day trial available. Its the best one I've used, its detected some things that AVG Free Edition missed completely. Don't use Norton AV, its a bunch of bloatware.

I am 100% against what is know as "total security". Just think how hard it is for one antivirus, antispyware, firewall to keep your system secure. Logic will tell you that "total security", can no way keep all these security risk secure.



Here is the data on the antivirus that I have used for the past ten years. An I am required by law due to my profession to keep my PC's 100% clean. I use an antivirus from Beijing, China. You pay only a one time fee of $29.99 for life for each PC, includes 7 or 8 daily auto. updates plus all new versions or life.

Hi purplepeace59,



You don't stream antivirus. You put an antivirus program on your computer and it watches everything you stream or download for a virus and protects you from them.



If you don't have an antivirus program you need one.

What is the best Anti-Virus computer software?computers



nothing is ever the best alone, there are some commercial softwares that are "all arounders" which are bulky and have to pay for it. The reason why all arounders are not good is because they use too much resources than 4 programs doing their task together. When I used Norton or Mcafee, my computer lagged so severely that I went nuts. Then i started to try new programs that are free and surprisingly, those programs all together don't lag as much as one big program.



i use: Comodo firewall 3(with defense+ disabled), avg free(backup antivirus), avira antivira(main antivirus and is extremely powerful but make sure you configure the settings to everything high except the scan priority to low because of scanning lags), spybot search and destroy(spyware killer, but needs to be manually updated and immunized every week, which isnt a problem)

Yet it doesn't seem to block out the bad guys, I also use a combo of adaware, spybot, registry mechanic, even yahoo anti-spy but it doesn't stop anything. If I'm lucky one or the other will remove the problem t'ill the next time or will cause major problems. can anyone please suggest something...where am i going wrong?? thanks to all....Peace..

You should have an anti-spyware solution on your computer. I recommend that you go to http://www.download.com and get AD-AWARE and SpyBot Search %26 Destory. Install, run, update and scan your computer with both programs.



There is no BEST. If we all had the same solution, then the Hackers could get us with ease. So we should have a great diversity of anti-virus and anti-virus solutions. Go with the ratings to get something good.

Avast
avg and spyware doctor tried and tested myself thats better than reviews
As for Antispywares, spybot - search and destroy and lavasoft's adaware se are great ( go to download.com and see most downloaded program list for adaware). Anyways having 2-3 antispywares are well and good.
Norton or McAffee
go with Ad-Aware first, in my opinion, then go ahead with spybot. DONT USE SPY SWEEPER!!! thats the worst antispyware program out there, it actually puts spyware ON your computer! (BTW, this is with my experience as a computer specialist.)

You need to run those programs in Safe Mode (tap F8 as the computer boots up and choose to boot to safe mode). It is possible a virus is preventing you from scanning your computer.



Ideally you should run a virus removal program in Safe Mode (without networking) and reboot and repeat the scan and reboot until there is a cycle where no virus is detected.



The idea behind the Safe Mode is that the operating system would only load your essential programs and drivers to the memory and hence there is a 鈥渉igh鈥?chance that the virus-infected file is on the drive but not loaded into memory. This would enable the AV to clean it easily and the next reboot/scan would detect nothing. There could still be a small possibility that one of the drivers or programs that are loaded by the OS in the Safe Mode is infected. That鈥檚 why you need to keep rebooting and rescanning to make sure you鈥檝e found them all.
