    Anybody have any suggestion as to a good "free" anti-virus software? I've been using AVG and it's timed out so I need help.
    TIA,

    Em, I recommend that you get ESET's NOD32 Antivirus. It's not free, but it's head & shoulders above the freebies, especially when coupled with MalWare Bytes to curb the non-virus issues designed to just be a pain, slow your system, or flood you with pop-ups. Freebies aren't kept up to date as well as the ones you pay for, and the sicko's who sit and dream up problems are an active group.

    We get Norton 360 with constant guard for free from our cable provider, no problems in the last 4 years with this setup either.

    Yep, click the free down load, BUT READ everything there is one window asking you if you want (fill in blank) as you homepage. I always say no because I like using Google Chrome. It will find things that Norton's stuff couldn't, I know this because I use to use Norton's. Take your pick all are good, some better then others, it just depends on your needs.........joe

    Comcast ........... good stuff

    The big reason they do that is because they want to keep their servers safe. So logic says keep the users clean and the data centers will also be.
