A more professional look at these products
Anti virus product list from Wilders.org.. It is sad that there is no favorite mentioned or price listed.
What I am looking for
- Something that doesn't bug me every year that I have to resubscribe
- I can live with 3 years (the life of the computer)
- Something I can run 1 to 5 computers without an additional ton of dollars
- Combined with all of the security features firewall, anti-virus, spyware
AVG comes recommended
David recommends AVG which is free. I am going to try this.
Ad-aware from Lavasoft to protect against spyware
I have just downloaded and installed it on the laptop from download.com. I will keep you posted how that goes.
