Free Anti-virus software?
Does free anti-virus software give good enough protection as opposed to the expensive ones you can buy?
Yes it does. Either AVG free or Avast free is usually good enough for individual use.
I second the guy who commented below about Avast or AVG I've used one or the other as long as I've had a computer - and they have always taken care of everything virus wise.
I had enough people tell me that Avast was better - and so now I use Avast free after using AVG Free for the longest time

I have Microsoft Security Essentials. It's free and it's great for me.
Free anti-virus software like AVG will provide enough protection as opposed to the expensive one.
those are the two i had in mind ... Microsoft Security Essentials and AVG.
I agree with the people that use AVG free! I also use Spybot S&D which is also free!
Microsoft Security Essentials provides excellent protection without any associated cost.
I recommend to use Norton on your computer. Download and install the Norton on the computer.
You can install the free Norton from the following link.

For the past 5 or 6 hours I have been dealing with some fraud and identity theft that I discovered and I'm now really weary of my online security; I hope some HP "techies" can help... I use the Windows 7 built-in firewall and I use the free version of Avast for antivirus. ...
