Hello
I like Anti-Vir has a free virus scanner, it is made in germany, i like germany, nearly everything i have is made in germany.
This program is free, you don't have to register your e-mail with them which they may use that and give to other companies for advert through e-mail, my friend used to have AVG, but he now gets 300 - 400 e-mails a week, don't know if AVG is responisble for that, but my friend is angry, and he did keep a log of who he sign up with which was only about 15 websites, including AVG, so he blames all the 15 for all the junk he gets, who wants to know about viagra, and other naughty things, he also gets love letters from women, he opened one once and it installed a dialer to dial somewhere to spain, and he lives in United Kingdom, SURPRISE 100 POUND telephone bill for 2 and a half minuts online with that porn site, of course he did not know about the virus, his ISP are not bothered about protecting the customers from that, it should be free protection, but you have to pay an extra 2 pound a month to have all international calls banned and all premium calls banned, now at least if it happened to me with my ISP i will be protected, my ISP will not expect me to pay for that call, i know they sent me an e-mail and told me there policy, although they said to watch out and if it happens to turn off internet and ring there 24 hour support they will then trace it and they may take that company to court. Not like my friends ISP, where they threatened to take him to court and force him to pay the 100 pound he owed them, he paid it anyway, especially when the threatened court action.
you can also try kerio firewall, thats a good firewall.
personally i use mcafee virus scan 8 pro, and i use black ice defender. I never turn either off, even if these game companies ask me to, is it so they can put a virus on your computer, very suspicious hay, don't you agree.
I installed a game once and it said when you play this game you MUST turn off all virus and firewall, and any other background programs that are running, well guess what the game was an internet online only game, hay so just anyone then could hack into your computer while you was playing the game and put a virus on your computer, or maybe you get a virus from another play theat has just sent it through the server to you.
