FREE antivirus programs?
 

I have my cousins (computer illiterate) here and i am removing spyware and all that shit. Is there something free and basic for him for antivirus? Some people should not be allowed near a pc ...

norton;)
getit off kazaa

Solo Antivirus is free for 30 days I think. Search for it at download.com

Or send him here http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

Don't be a cheap bastard Juicy... Get Norton and while your at it throw SpyBot and Zone Alarm Pro on. If he is computer illiterate get him protected so you don't have to do it again

Trend micro is good. Use that. Or you can always Download the shareware version of McCafee.

I have norton 2004 disc here but I dont want him bugging me when the shit starts I need a dodo proof solution

Find out what lil2rich is running. He always comes here with questions and I haven't heard any from him about this subject :1orglaugh

haha

I highly recommend AVG
It offers anti virus protection for your pc, as well as for your incoming & outgoing email.
They update their databases on a regular basis too.
For a free program, it's pretty tight. :thumbsup

You can do an online free scanning at

I'd have to agree with Deb, AVG kicks ass. Free, new updates all the time, and it hasnt missed anything yet.

there's no good free software in nature.

yup, free & working :Graucho

ZoneAlarm was the worst shit I ever installed.

try avg real good

Heres a place to get AVG without entering yoru info.

do you know for over 4yrs now i havent run an AV or firewall other than the one that came with my most recent router?

Only had a problem once with virus but it wasnt bad enough to make me format or lose anything.

I prolly just jinxed myself though, heh
