You can also try http://free.grisoft.com for a very good antivirus program.
It's free as well. Dave.

Hi Dave
Yes it´s free, but I believe it´s better to try a whole security package for mostly all users. Of course this is a balance with users which can afford it or not. But if a user have no problem with money a whole security package suite is better. Important to not buying it now, run a trial for a while and then buy 2006 models. They are all coming soon. -- plun Dave brought next idea : > You can also try http://free.grisoft.com for a very good antivirus program. > It's free as well. > > Dave. > > "plun" wrote: > >> Hi >> >> Virus is virus, spyware is spyware and a greyzone between them with >> trojans, you will need both. >> >> http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/default.mspx >> >> Trials: (from other companys also antivirus and firewalls) >> >> http://www.microsoft.com/athome/sec...ds/default.mspx >> >> -- >> plun >> >> >> GZ formulated on lördag : >>> can anyone tell me whether Windows Antispyware contains antivirus >>> protection or would you still need to purchase this software to protect >>> against viruses? >>> >>> cheers >> >> >> |
