Answer 5

Get these two solutions that actually are RELIABLE !!!

AVAST and AD-AWARE.

These tools do an EXCELLENT job, and the "home' versions are FREE to the public.

(The business versions you should purchase)

A.

Avast free Home Edition

Get it here:

http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.ht...

And please do a "thorough" scan as soon as you get it downloaded. The user interface is simple. Click the left side, and in the top menu that comes up, select thorough scan.

When it finds a culprit it throws up an alarm, then you DELETE the culprit, (do not quarantine).

Then allow it to run all of the time, and you will be completely protected. It will "automatically" update itself, also for free.

You only need to renew your registration once a year, also free.

Note: I KNOW of several people who have used AVG and Norton and have gotten a virus anyway.

Don't go with Zone Alarm as it is hoggy and conflicting.

I've tried them all, and have had wonderful results with DEPENDABLE AVAST for the last 5 years.

The corporation I work for uses the Pro version, and has never has an incident. Avast is your answer.

B.

Get free Ad-AWARE spy-removal tool from Lavasoft

http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad-a...

1. Download, install and run this program weekly or more.

Then you can be really confident that you are protected at all times.
