    This is about protecting your computer from spyware/adware/viruses comming on your hardrive from sites, is there any decent FREE protection applications to download which shield your computer from such viruses

    I know you can get paid ones (Nortons Anti virus- etc) but are there any free ones you use? and how successful are they?


    ONE IMPORTANT THING....about this application- I need a application that will safeguard my computer from viruses ever comming on my computer....

    I DONT need somthing to scan my computer that will clean it up, but a program that will be active on my desktop that will block/prevent viruses from comming to my site (i have also updated this on my post)

    I've only ever used AVG Free and I have never gotten a virus.
