LimeWire doesn't start? (LimeWire FAQ doesn't help?)?

I cannot start LimeWire; it doesn't (cannot) run at all. LimeWire Support http://www.limewire.org/wiki/index.php?t... doesn't help also.



1. I don't use any spyware or antivirus software (besides Spyware Doctor which also doesn't run at the moment I start LimeWire, even at the background).



2. LimeWire icon is not on the System Tray



3. Java is installed again (the latest version)



4. LimeWire is installed again (the latest version)



So what can the problem be? (Firewall? But it hasn't even asked to block or unblock LimeWire from running and LimeWire is not in the list of my blocked applications of Firewall)



Any suggestions?



LimeWire doesn't start? (LimeWire FAQ doesn't help?)?antispyware



Limewire sometimes slows down your computer and some programs doesn't run normally so I suggest you to uninstall limewire and see what happen. If it doesn't work the best way to get out of those problems is to do a recovery of the whole system and it will be as new as you bought it. And no worry I did that to my computer like 3 times because limewire.

Itunes slow uses up all cpu?

Everytime i run itunes my whole computer goes very slow. I know that this isn't down to the laptop as it is a top of the range power laptop. I know its not down to my symantec antivirus software as i've disabled it and it is still really slow.



In an attempt to improve the speed i cleared my harddrive of all excess music and put it all in one folder. DID NOTHING. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I know this isn't the 1st case of it.



Itunes slow uses up all cpu?antivirus download



Is it using all of the CPU when it's not doing anything, or just when it's downloading things from the internet? You can check in the Windows Task Manager to see what percentage of the CPU is being taken up by iTunes. You also might want to gander through the list of processes to see if there is more than one instance of iTunes running. If you download lots of podcasts (particularly the ones with video) it takes a lot of CPU and network resources and it would explain the slow down. You will also want to completely shut iTunes down when you aren't actively using it.

In the past week my DSL connection on my laptop has slowdown it is connected via WIFI?

I have a Dell laptop and it is connected to a 2Wire system. I have run all of my Norton antivirus software, defender, spybot and I have a fire wall that is active. I am careful when on the internet and I have not found anything. Thanks



In the past week my DSL connection on my laptop has slowdown it is connected via WIFI?antivirus downloads



Several things for you to check..



1. Reboot the 2Wire -- simply pull the power plug, wait 2-4 minutes plug it back in and wait for it to complete the boot cycle.. see if the speed returns.



(Sometimes routers need rebooting too.)



2. Be sure you dont have a "freeloader" check your wireless settings and be sure encryption is enabled.. might be a good time to change the "password" for you encryption just be be sure. You can check the router logs to see if anyone else is connected.



Check the signal strength and noise levels if neither of these two takes care of the connection speed. I use NetStumbler for this. It is free to download and shows noise vs signal levels.



You can use http://speakeasy.net/speedtest to see if you are getting good speed from the DSL.



Check your DSL speed using a wire to see if it is normal. If not, call your ISP and have the line checked, they can go bad and do.

Small doubts about virus?

1.why virus attacks only .exe files?



2.why virus modifies the existing file without deleting it which is easier?



3.virus is definitely a program,how does it execute automatically on its own,it may go to startup directory,but how?



4.deleting or modifying a file is easier in C, i mean an application can be developed easily such that on its execution the specified OS files be corrupted.Antivirus software wont say it is a virus. what additional features will a virus have?



Small doubts about virus?antivirus programs



1) It doesn't. Viruses can attach to dll files, doc files, etc... Basically, it can attach to any file accessed by the computer.



2) Some viruses do delete files. My guess as to why a lot only modify would be because it could be easier to hid from antivirus software.



3) To infect a computer, a virus must somehow be accessed. That's when the virus infects the computer, and supposedly starts up on it's own at a later date or immediately.



4) Viruses can lay dormant until a specified time to act. Viruses are programs that do damage. Viruses are usually associated with being malicious, but can just monitor activity on a computer.



Small doubts about virus?computer protection



You're welcome. Report It

1. The majority of viruses I've encountered attack through registry keys and rouge DLL's. Virus's that go through EXE's are most probably trojan programs that display false information whilst downloading more viruses and stuff onto your computer.



2. Wouldn't it be more easier to overwrite the file?



3. Registry and DLL's

How do I get McAfee completely off my computer?

I bought a new antivirus software and I removed McAfee from the computer and restarted the machine, but I keep getting popups in the bottom right of my screen of McAfee updates. Is there a way to completely remove this?



How do I get McAfee completely off my computer?antivirus protection



i believe McAfee updates is a seperate program that you have to remove.. go back into your "remove" programs and make sure that you have removed everything with the name McAfee on it.. hope this helps...

you will have to go to mcafee and down load there removel tool and then run it on your PC .
Manual Uninstall



My Computer--%26gt;C Drive--%26gt;Programs--%26gt;Mccafee--%26gt; Delete all files and send to recycle bin

Now Open HKEY Local Machine--%26gt;Software--%26gt;Right Click Mcafee and Delete



Restart
Easy way. I had the same problem the reason is because it is still in the registry. Go to Add/Remove Programs and delete anything to do with McAfee. Be sure to remove security center. Then go to http://safety.live.com/site/en-US/center...



and run the scanner. for clean up. It might ask you to install some ActiveX controls jsut do that and let it scan. It will find registry errors just click delete and then restart your computer. It should not come up anymore.
Delete anything in A%26Rprograms with McAffee on it, I believe there's a separate updater.

Unknown Computer Problem?computer virus



thanks for the vote



but i would like to know what helped you Report It


You will probably get a million answers here but if you are not familiar with pc's they I would HIGHLY suggest you take it to a dealer and have them fix it. If there is nothing on the pc that you need then insert the Microsoft cd and reinstall the O/S. That will wipe the entire drive and will clean it up.
Of course you can't stay on the Internet. If Internet Explorer has disappeared, you don't have any way to browse the Internet. If you can't do a system restore, you have to hire someone to reformat the machine. Don't kid yourself, if your problems are as bad as you say they are, you're going to have to pay out some cash to fix it.
if you have an anti virus program on your computer, then do a scan to check for any virus's. then you can delete all found once the scan if over.
You may be able to get some anti virus software to clean it up, but once you get to this point, it is best to save all the files you can and re-install your computer. Even if you get the bug fixed, you will still probably have some damaged files in there. So save all your important stuff, then erase everything, re-install windows... and then add add the anti virus from the beginning.
Please take no offense, but if you were unaware of the existence and threat of computer viruses, then I fear that you would not be qualified to do what needs to be done to get your computer dis-infected and up-and-running. Sorry.

Ohh wait... is it AVG? I know AVG has an on boot scan feature that runs by default to check for viruses prior to windows loading.



But I'm not so familiar with windows as I don't work on many windows machines anymore and the only one in the house (a glorified print server and game machine for the kids) runs 98. I'm also not up to date with AV software as I don't have much of a need for it. The 98 machine has an old version of AVG on it, I haven't gotten around to putting something like Winpooch with ClamWin on it.

Why does my private network start receiving data from the server when i am not requesting it?

Thanx



Why does my private network start receiving data from the server when i am not requesting it?computer repair



First thing is make sure you are only running ONE anti-virus at a time. As far as data from the server, it depends on how it is configured. If there are shared programs across the network with the server as the repository, there should be a syncronization time established for server to client else each users data will be at a different rev. level. Again, depending on setup, the windows updates may be set to push from server to client.

What is the best free downloadable AntiVirus software?

i don't believe that a free antivirus can be best. it can be good, but not best. like grisoft's free software. it is good, but it also got a lot of times when it doesn't detect a virus going rampant in my computer.



best way to have free that is best is to consider to join beta testers of antivirus softwares. either they'd give you the software for free or you'll have a good deal for it at the end of the testing.



What is the best free downloadable AntiVirus software?computer protection



In my opinion, the best resident protection from a free product is AVAST! - it provides realtime protection for standard activity on a PC, web browsing, instant message, and peer to peer file transfers, along with other layers of protection. I consider the best on demand free antivirus scanner to be Bitdefender 8 - it does not provide realtime protection, but offers a very fast and highly rated on demand scan, complementing AVAST's realtime protection.

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following linkhttp://www.computeractive.co.uk/. On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps

You can also download Ad-aware by going to www.lavasoftusa.com!!! Hope this helps. Ad-aware is completely free. Norton anti-virus runs about $49.99ish.
Actually I would get the AVG antivirus Free edition. Its probably the best free antivirus I've found.
Here you have several options:

I would go with AVG!
The best tested and always wins industry trials is NOD32.com
AVG Anti-virus Free Edition. It is completely free. There is no trial, and it updates its virus definitions as often as the big, expensive players do.
Windows Live OneCare from Microsoft.com.



Norton and all those other ones are going to slow down your system like crazy. Windows Live OneCare becomes part of the OS, and lets your system keep running the way it should.
By far the best free antivirus is Avast. www.avast.com. It catches and deletes what AVG misses.

well,antivirus (may) cause a problem after a certain stipulated period of time and they do not have that extreme sense to catch the very low risk anti activity that starts corrupting the system files slowly.my experience says that you should use NOD32 antivirus 4 your loving PC.you will sure experience the power and elegance of NOD32's ThreatSense Technology from the first day of its use.it offers the best protection from viruses,spyware,adware,phishin... attack and many more.keep tommorrow's threats at bay with the 'pro-active detection' technology.it has the smallest footprints and the fastest performance - bar none till now.

Buy anything but Norton....it can totally fry your computer...happened to me and other people I know.
Linux.
You simply can't not have the cheapest and best Anti-Virus software...you get what you pay for. Free or nearly free Anti-Virus programs simply do not off the protection of legitimate companies like Norton's. The BEST you can get is Norton 360 but it is one of the more expensive programs. That's because it's not just Anti-Virus, it's also Anti-Spyware, Active Fraud Monitoring, Back-up and Restore protection as well as Windows and Hard Driver Optimization. It can also be installed on up to 3 different computers at one time so you can share with friends or family.
Avast. It's free, easy to use, upgrades automatically so you stay up to date on viruses, monitors e-mail too.

Which is the best freely downloadable antivirus software?

In my opinion, and according to a number of testing sites and computer publications, Avira. (http://www.free-av.com)



Which is the best freely downloadable antivirus software?free antivirus download



Free antivirus sometimes you get what you pay for.



I personally use AVG (free.grisoft.com).



It is updated at least once a day, usually overnight.



It really depends on how careful you are, what sites you are going to, and what you are downloading. I use Firefox for the pure fact of security... Internet Explorer has Active-X controls, and many vulnerabilities in that program are taken advantage of through those Active-X controls.



AVG is the most widely-known free antivirus and they make some very good programs for purchase also.

On your start menu click control panel. Then press aadd remove programs. It should load a list of installed programs. Click on the one recently installed. Make sure you do not press remove or change, unless you're looking to do that.



How to turn on already installed antivirus software?kawasaki



Try looking in your program's folder and clicking on the .exe file if there isn't any icon on your screen or anywhere else.



Could you be more specific?
Well anti-virus are already in action or ON so no need to turn it on... if you manually offed it click the anti-virus running in your tray ( where windows clock is located) ............. and confruige it's settings



NOTE: IF YOU ARE USING AVG THEN IT CAN'T BE TURNED OF... SO IF MISTAKELY IT GOT TURN OFF... YOU'LL NEED TO RE START OR REINSTALL IT!
i think when u load the anti-virus you will be prmpted for a software activation.then you'll have to enter the activation code given to you when u bought the software, the code are on the cd cover.

Which one is the best free antivirus software avg free or avast home edition ?

I see the AVG fanboys and cheerleaders are out in full force again here on Yahoo Answers!



AVG is crap!



Mostly noobs, the naive, the computer illiterate, and children use AVG Free. These types love AVG because they say it is easy to use and almost never bothers them with any pop-ups or warnings. Of course AVG Free never bothers them, it hardly ever finds any virus to warn them about!

etc. etc. etc, ad nauseam, AVG fares poorly.



AVG has proven itself to be a miserable performer at best. Missing almost 20%, while trying to detect known malware, in some tests. Not to mention almost non-existent heuristic detection and infrequent "once-a day" updates.



AVG. = Average, at best!

Can i install more than one antivirus software, is it safe or can lead to any problem?

McAfeeOAS has been installed in my laptop,can i install any more.



Can i install more than one antivirus software, is it safe or can lead to any problem?hp



Just use one software. Which one is up to u. maybe McAffee is a memory consumer but is a good one. If it not just antivirus - and it like firewall +spyware + antivirus i dont see a reason to remove it. just keep it untill ur subsciption ends and then u find out what to do. u can use a free antivirus plus free programs for spyware and intrusion protection or u can renew ur McAffee subscription.



p.s: yes u can install more. In some cases it will not work together, but my advise is not to use more than one. There are viruses that some antivirus dont find and stuff like this but just use McAffee, its good for home use. Give it a try, although i prefer Norton :-)



Can i install more than one antivirus software, is it safe or can lead to any problem?mcaffee



NEVER install more than ONE anti-virus program on your computer. Each program will react to the other to your constant disadvantage. AVG is the only anti-virus program you should use because it's the best and it's FREE!
antivirus software packages often do damage to each other do to their investigative nature. As was suggested above... uninstall McAfee and install AVG Antivirus from Grisoft. The free version is fantastic.
Only one anti virus software at time will work fine. Keep it updated online, so that your pc is protected from the new virus threats.
Remove McAfee and install either Avast or AVG - it's best to only have 1 antivirus at a time.
Juz install one and update it regularly....more antivirus softwares will slow down ur PC
There is no need for more. However may I suggest you try AVG Free as opposed to McAfee. It is a much better overall program.

i think the soft ware will delete on aclick on notification report.



What should I do if my Antivirus software detected i have virus on my PC but it cannot delete or quarantine itnorten



research a better program on Panda.com
write down the virus and do a search ont he web about ways to remove that specific virus. try safe mode as well.
Go to your ALL PROGRAMS to see if you have pc doctor if you do click it and follow thwe steps.Then, you should look for a better security program than the one you have.
You do not say what software is failing. If it is not Norton, go to Symantic.com, find Norton Anti-virus, there is a link to have your computer scanned, fixes will be suggested. So far, I have had nothing get by the combo of Yahoo mail AND Norton. And, I just don't open attachments, even if I know the source...Bummer, isn't it?
It could be a "false positive". Go out to one of the free scanning sites of a brand other than your software (use McAfee if you have Norton, Norton if you have McAfee) and let them scan your machine for the virus and see what results you get.
And henceforth another reaason you should have pruchased an Apple computer.
Update your antivirus program regularly.Otherwise reinstall your anti virus program and try again.Or else try a different program.
I find the free AVG anti-virus software very helpful. Here's a link:



http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl...



Just scroll down to the section that says "AVG Free for Windows installation files" and click "avg71free_392a744.exe". The file should begin downloading.

Can someone tell what the best antivirus software available with a very limited budget.?malware



Everything has a free download here!



1. For your Anti-Virus.........................



Personally, I use the AOL AntiVirusShield. Don't let the name AOL scare you. AntiVirusShield is made by Kaspersky which is one of top-rated anti-virus vendors in the world.



In recent tests, the most popular free anti-virus, AVG, was only able to detect about 82% of a very large sample of viruses. On the other hand, AntiVirusShield was able to detect better than 99% in the same test.



http://www.virus.gr/english/fullxml/defa...



AOL AntiVirusShield has excellent virus detection rates and is extremely light on using your computer resources.



Free to anyone, AOL member or not from:



http://www.activevirusshield.com/antivir...



2. For your Firewall......................



An excellent free firewall is Comodo Personal Firewall. It can pass firewall "leak tests" that even a lot of the "paid-for" firewalls cannot pass.



And Comodo has a great support forum. Where the CEO / President of the company might even himself answer your question! Check it out at:

yes you do need it, virus's access your computer as soon as you open the Internet, why don't you try some free ones to see which one runs best on your comp with out slowing it down
Have you found out if anti-virus is the main reason for being slow?



Have you checked on other things like the RAM size and the kind of applications running on the machine?



Check those before other things.
try this



use link to show how



http://netsquirrel.com/msconfig/
Yes you need antivirus. If you get an infected email and open it then it can spread to everyone else in your address book, which in turn can spread via their computers.



It's how viruses are propogated. Maybe be you should see if you can install more RAM.
Anti-virus programs usually don't stop spyware and you might be getting that. You might also have too little memory on your computer.
antivirus is useful.. esp with the increasing threats.. ur system performance depends on which one u are using..

Just insert it into your disc drive and follow the instructions from there. Unless of course they're not in English either! Then I would suggest taking it back to where you bought it from and getting the English version. I will tell you though that I have the English version and it was a pain to install! Took a lot of time going through all the steps. I prefer McAfee. Way easier!!
Place the CD in and just keep pressing the Y button or right pointing arrow. It should install it properly even if you can't read it.

AVG and Avast are two good free antivirus programs; however, from my experience, once you have a nasty piece of garbage on your computer, sometimes nothing works and you have to do a hard drive format and start from scratch. Go to Trend Micro House Call and try to use their online scanner first- it's been very useful in my past ordeals. Next, try to download and run either of the above two. If this is a trojan, try www.xblock.com and try out their free online scanner too.

If I were to buy (eg. Norton) antivirus software, how long would it last before I had to buy it agai

Forgive me for being dim, but is this something you have to buy/renew every year: does it run for the calendar year or just 12 months from when you install it?



If I were to buy (eg. Norton) antivirus software, how long would it last before I had to buy it again?



12 months from the day you install, i.e. 28 January 2007 to 28 January 2008.



Rather than pay for Norton (which is a resource hog) why not go for free, good and recommended programs? I used Norton for six years, but since I've used free programs, my computer is a lot faster. Definitely worth trying the free programs before you make a decision.



For good, free and recommended security programs, please go here



http://www.webuser.co.uk/forums/showflat...



I recommend AVG as an anti virus, although eTrust's 12 month free trial is excellent (I'm using it and am extremely impressed).



If you need other programs, go for Zone Alarm firewall, AVG anti spyware (formerly Ewido) and SpywareBlaster.



If you click on the names in that list I gave you and it will take you to the official download site.



Please ensure that you keep them all updated for full protection and check for any updates when you first download them.

Does anyone else here thing NOT having antivirus software installed is DUMB?

Coming From A IT Secruity Expert



I'm a security expert and all my PCs I own don't have a Anti Virus program on them. I know how viruses/worms/trojans work and can even code them myself. Matter of fact i'll let you in on a lilttle secert you can still get viruses with a AV. For example all the little exploits Windows has like buffer overflow where I can insert the code and have it executed without the Anti Virus Software doing anything. Some hackers like to get fame when they find one and they will make whats called a rootkit.



I don't use a AV cause it just hogs ram and takes up space on your HD. The only time I will use a Anti Virus is if I was admin of a network and I had to keep it secure. Most of the time when a network is compromised it is done by one of the users. Probably downloaded a program with a virus binded to it.



These are the best ways to secure your PC.



Firewall.



Keep Windows updated.



Does anyone else here thing NOT having antivirus software installed is DUMB?abtuvurys 2005



it is dumb



Does anyone else here thing NOT having antivirus software installed is DUMB?antivirus programs



It's ultimately the individual's decision to have anti-virus software or not, but anyone who doesn't is either dumb or really enjoys having to reinstall their OS every week, due to the virus that locks up their PC and destroys the hard disk.
I dont use anti-virus software and have never had a problem. I use a good fire wall and know what is comming in and out of my computer. I have found that anti-virus slows down my comp and is quite un-usefull as long as you know what you are doing
no i find it not dumb at all especaly if your stressed for resources so as long as you use care and dont dl every godforsakeing file you see i have ran av free for 3 yrs with no problems though i do use scanners i dont have a resident live av
U r a moron without it, its russian roulette, its funny though when people have to buy a new comp, ahah
Hi!



Not having some PC security up and running is... more than DUMB! Imagine this: it is highly probable that right now someone is reading your e-mails and stuff, and sends letters to your friends... to an unlimited extent... This is what may happen if someone takes control of your computer.



The worst part is this: any computer that does NOT have some anti virus installed has a 50% chance to get infected with at least one virus during the first 12 minutes after installation.



Good luck!

check your firewall settings
First there is hope, depending on the why of things. I had no problem loading the page so I know its not a broken link, therefore something else is causing this. In order to find out what is going on you need to post some more information, specifically the error returned when the page doesnt load... ie DNS error or whatever is on the page that does load. If its a DNS error the simplest way around it is to use a DNS Server in your internet settings that is up to date and complete, the one supplied by your ISP may net be up to par as many are not. I am connected via sattellite and my isp Direcway has horrable DNS servers, i get around this by manually assigning my DNS server to Primary or first 64.151.103.120 and Secondary to my ISP's DNS server. This eliminated many problems loading some www sites. If you need assistance with makeing the necessary changes you can contact me via Yahoo Messenger username fsedcb or fsebentley, i usually monitor one or te other.



I hope that is helpful :-)
What happens when you try to connect? Are you getting an error message?



Works for me, in Firefox, Internet Explorer and Opera.
don't bother. it doesn't work with me either.(im using 3 browsers) it's an error in the site itself. they must have stopped or eliminated the site.

What free firewall works with free avg antivirus...software?

Zone Alarm free edition is probably the best. Once installed you can go onto Steve Gibsons site www.grc.com and select Shields Up to test the ports on your computer for leaks. Usually it is a complete pass meaning your computer will not be accessible via the internet.



What free firewall works with free avg antivirus...software?adware



Windows Xp Service Pack 2 comes with a firewall. You also need to install Microsoft Windows Defender to get good security



What free firewall works with free avg antivirus...software?antivirus scan



zone alarm is probably your best choice and there's another one called black ice
An excellent free firewall is Comodo Personal Firewall. It can pass firewall "leak tests" that even most of the "paid-for" firewalls cannot pass.



And Comodo has a great support forum. Where the CEO / President of the company (Melih) might even himself answer your question! Check it out at:

most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser. you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus.



i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser. as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.



besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.



download firefox for free, Just have a try:

i would recommend avast antivirus. it's free and real good.
Make sure you do not have another antivirus installed on your computer. Two instance of antivirus can cause conflict.
go 4 hotshot anti virus coz its better
I would uninstall it and go with a reputable brand (McAfee,Norton) too many of the free one solely rely on XP components and the slightest variation can cause BIG problems. Run defrag and scan disk BEFORE installing new anti-virus.

How do I get rid of fake antivirus software and its "Security Toolbar 7.1"?

someone accidentally downloaded this while they were using my computer. I've deleted every file I can find attached to this so-called security; however, I can't get the toolbar off, and I can't get the icon off the bottom toolbar. This is soooo annoying and sneaky. They made it look like a windows error message, but it was some other company. How do I get this crapola off?

Spybot - Search %26 Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S%26D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

while i use CA Vet Anti Virus, best one their is, neva had a problem



Can u tell me which is better antivirus software?auto protect



Good question. I've tried both Kaspersky and Norton, and heres a few things you might want to know:



Norton is a big file. If you're low on disc space, you may want to try Kasperky.



Norton is not very effective when estimating the time of a scan. Kaspersky, although does not give you time, gives you a percentage done, so you can estimate the time left.



Norton gets updates every day, whereas Kaspersky gets updates about every other day.



Norton was rated better then Kaspersky in a recent Consumer Reports Issue, but not by much.



So, depending on how you value these points, choose the anti virus accordingly... Good luck

Well, Norton Anti virus 2007 is fine. However, why dont you try symantec or AVG. They are pretty responsive to threats.
the top sellers (which is why they are good) are either Norton or mcafee
I don't know about the other you have listed but i can tell you from my recent experience of the last 24 hours, Norton's 2007 may not be worth its salts.

What can you say about these programs?



Is avast one of the best free antivirus software,and Ad-Aware SE personal one of the best free anti-spyware?antispam



AVAST is an excellent program and will provide great protection.



When it come to Antispy programs you want to have at least three programs providing active full time protection. AdAware SE free does not provide this. It is great for doing scans and removal after you are infected.



Windows Defender Beta 2, Spybot Search %26 Destory (Tea Timer turned on) and SpywareBlaster are a great start for full time protection. All three can be downloaded here:



http://www.filehippo.com/



I recommend you download AdAware SE and keep it on your computer to do regular scans. As the name implies it strength is removing adware programs.



Ewido (now called AVG Antispyware) has a 30 day trial of the full function program. After the trial period it will only function as AdAware does. You can still update manually and use it for scans and removal. It is the best general Trojan remover.



You can get these a File Hippo also.



Is avast one of the best free antivirus software,and Ad-Aware SE personal one of the best free anti-spyware?avast



So far its the best.
On of the best you need or THE BEST,
I have heard alot of good things about Avest. But AVG is free too and is good. As for spyware scanners im gona tell you truth some pick up some spyware that others missed. So I would get two spyware programs. The one you have is good but get spybot aswell. And keep them updated spyware and anti virus software
Avast is one of the very best free antivirus programs that actually works 100% of the time. Avast free version is the same as their corporate version. They require you to fill out a short form, so the can send you a free key as the free home version or corporate version both require registration keys. When you receive your key via email, just install the key and the email address that you used. The key for the free version is good for one year. After one year you just request a new key.
