I wondered if my laptop is secure enough!
I Have:-
Zone Alarm Firewall (Free Pro Trial Version [Just installed from Windows Firewall])
Panda Anti-Virus 2007
Windows Defender
And I scan my PC at least once a day!
Is my laptop secure enough or do I need more?

To be honest there is not any such difficulty a secure pc. as quickly as you turn on your pc, the possibility is everywhere. anyhow, it somewhat is often a bad difficulty to have 2 anti-virus put in on a working laptop or pc because of the fact they are going to conflict, so as a substitute of keeping your pc they are going to combat one yet another and that they are going to omit some viruses that are attempting to get into your workstation. Configure your abode windows firewall and you'll be effective. individuals are lazy they simply bypass away their abode windows Firewall or any firewall with the aid of default settings. it somewhat is undesirable on the grounds that there are some open ports which you do not choose and hackers got here across those open port and that they income from them. For spyware use SpyBot seek and injury. it somewhat is an exceptionally solid utility and that's unfastened. the main shelter gadget is as vulnerable as its person.

Also install an anti spyware and scan the PC. I can give a few links that offer free virus and spyware removers...! Ad-aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html

You seem to have more than enough, one advises you to have Windows one care , do not , I put this on and it slowed my computor down somewhat, blocking out alot of that which I had authorised, try getting Zone alarm, a freebee to a certain level you pay for the full version

Your computer seems quite secure - just remember to update your virus checker. Your windows defender should protect you from spyware/adaware, but it wouldn't hurt to run an adaware scan every week
