Mcafee virus scan etc.... either way they are all spyware

Answer 4

Norton Anti Virus is pretty good. However you should also have at least one other anti spyware program. I use Super Antispyware professional too. Super Antispyware also has a free version which also works well. They always manage to find adware and tracking cookies Norton misses.

Answer 5

Norton is the best one  

Answer 6

There are paid suites and freewares

It is up to you on whether what kind will you use but i will definitely recommend to you the set of freewares that could beat or equalize the performance of a paid suite.

1. Avira Antivir Free Antivirus - this suite is a good one and a great alternative to NOD32 Antivirus which is a paid suite. It is an anti-virus, anti-rootkit, anti-malware, and anti-trojan in one. Click the link below to get it.

Maintaining and keeping your computer secure requires a lot of effort from the user so please scan your computer regularly with use of the first three mentioned programs.

With the use of these softwares, you are now protected than using just a single paid internet security suite.
