View Full Version : A good free antivirus program
Someone pls give me a strong decent anti virus program .. I download a few things from the web like Babylon and my computer reacted badly to it.. I am not sure what I have currently on the computer to protect me but I can tell you this is the fourth laptop in a three year span...
I found crapcleaner which I am pleased with, but my mom's computer has met with a certain fate recently and I don't want mine to suffer the same..
Jazakoum Allah khyran

^I would suggest the same. If you're downloading free anti-viruses from the net, they're most likely crapmultiplier.

I use
AVG, and it's served me well. I've got the free edition; but there is pro version you can pay for with extra features.
Check it out.

Salam Sister,
I found Agv free version to be good for standard protection, I also downloaded spywareterminator for real time internet protection, I would advise not to add the toolbar, I found information saying the free spyware terminator is effective but toolbar is adaware (do not add that). These in together cleaned up our comps well. And they are free. Safe surfing Sister.

Eugh
Norton; never!
Zonealarm does the job for me however, you can always use AVG which is outstanding!

bah anti-virus - I am glad I left that world. Mac rules!
sister, you should AVG. It is the most stable and killer free anti-virus known in the market. Do you have adblock plus for firefox? because it helps to minimize lots of garbage.

norton is not as good as it is used to be; there are many better than norton out there. It has become a garbage tool if you ask me.
EDIT
more good Firefox addons:
this and
this
I haven't tried them myself but they seem good

Agreed brother. Norton has had it's share of "top internet security suite" and hasn't achieved to sustain it until today.

I have been with popular
Norton Anti-Virus which makes my computer too slow, I was not happy with the program. So I get rid of my computer, then my computer is back normal fast:statisfie.
I figured out AVG AntiVirus or Adware are pretty good.
Currently in my computer is I used
AVAST ANTIVIRUS (One year only), click here
more info. My computer is still running fast smoothly without Norton program.

AVG free is the best one sis , i have been using it for years and works pretty well, if you need hacker protection (only if you know somebody is trying to hack you :P ) i suggest you use a firewall in the second link.. you can get it here
http://download.cnet.com/AVG-Anti-Vi...-10320142.html
http://download.cnet.com/2701-2023_4...esLeftColumn.0
and this link essentially gives all the good programs relating to security in 6 categories .. may be u can read this and download which ever you feel is needed ( all are FREE and respectable softwares)
