[Snag219]

AVG-Free Anti-Virus:

It's quite a nice, simple to use and well-made package (I've never had any viruses it didn't detect).

For Spyware:
http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE...045910.html?part=dl-ad-aware&subj=dl&tag=top5

It's quite a nice, again simple to use and thorough anti-spy/mal/adware system.

AVG works great, and doesn't use much system resources.

I have the new Nortan and its pretty nice. It has spyware protection and it doesnt ask to allow programs to get to the internet anymore it just does it. I never have any virus or spyware when it runs the checks. I used to use a free spyware program called Search and Destroy, its works pretty nice. You can find it by searching it in google.

 

[Rogue Sniper]

you mean Spybot: Search and Destroy ?

avast and spybot s and d w/ teatimer works great. along with adware personal se.

leave avast and teatimer running and use spybot and adware if you are trying to track something down.
