best free anti-virus and anti-spy.

[jbchillin]

I bought a new computer about six months ago and the free trial of kaspersky anti-virus is about to run out. i currently a mix of that and windows defender on my computer but i was wondering if there were any better free versions out there.

i don't use my anti-spy/anti-virus religiously because i don't do things that put my computer at risk but its always nice to have just in case.

Avast is the anti virus software that I use, and it works quite nice.

I'm with Aylaine for Spyware though -- Malwarebytes works great.

Anti Virus, for me is Microsoft Security Essentials. Whenever I watch hentai, sometimes I get a nasty bug here and there, but it always saves me butt from viruses. As for Spyware, I feel MaleWare Bytes is really the standard now. It's really good and it's never failed me before.

Those are my suggestions!

Another vote for Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes. Just remember - ONLY ONE antivirus at a time.

Good luck!

Avast! has served me well since I switched over from AVG. It doesn't get EVERYTHING, but a fair degree of common sense will last you.

I contracted the dreaded System Tool a while back after getting an unauthorised redirect by accidentally clicking on a banner ad (¬¬) Avast caught most of it, just had to track down the source in safe mode. Now I'm clean as a whistle! (I hope)

If your gonna pay for Anti-Virus try something like Ma Cafe. Otherwise I have been using Avast for years. Never put a foot wrong.
