This software is good, doesn't take much system resources and is free! To do a scan simply, right click and scan now.

Avast is loads better than AVG. Its not as friendly but don't let that put you off.
Have you installed it yet? Because when you do, it does a full scan for you.
After that, you'll have an icon on the bottom right hand side of your taskbar, you right click on that and select 'Start Avast'.
A help screen comes up when you use it, and when you hover your mouse over the icons it tells you what they are.
Or you can right click on the taskbar icon and select 'Start Avast'.
You can also download files to the desktop, or open any file, right click on it and select 'scan with avast' to check them.

Well, I never heard of it but if you go to your nearest electronic computer store, ask for Norton Anti-Virus.
