  2. The other day, my free anti-virus program caught a Trojan virus.

    To ensure that the virus caught is not a false positive,

    I upload it to virus total web site to check.

    http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/c3558...

    To my surprise, all the big names in Anti-virus industry cannot detect

    the Trojan. The one that detect the Trojan are mainly the free version.

    Later, I found out that most malwares are designed to attack popular

    antivirus products (like McAfee or Norton), but since free anti-virus

    product is much less used, it's capable of fighting the viruses when

    industry leaders fail.

    So I would go for the free version rather than the bloated and

    unreliable branded version.

    I would suggest that you get Avast Home Edition version 4, which is free

    for personal use.

    Avast is a very effective and free anti-virus program because it can do

    a boot scan in safe mode and it will remove the entire virus on your PC.

    Even those viruses that hide inside the system restore folder.

    Windows utilize a restore utility that backs up selected files

    automatically to the System volume information /System Restore folder.

    This means that an infected file could be stored there as a backup file,

    and most anti-virus programs will be unable to delete these files. You

    must disable the System Restore Utility to remove the infected files

    from the folder if you use another brand of anti-virus. However, you do

    not need to do so if you use Avast to do a boot up scan in safe mode.

  3. You just need these two tools:

    Get these two solutions that actually are RELIABLE !!!

    AVAST and AD-AWARE.

    These tools do an EXCELLENT job, and the "home' versions are FEE 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 quaranteen).

    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
