There is a lot of free software available.
ANTIVIRUS: My favorites are AVG at www.grisoft.com,
then AVAST at www.avast.com
SPYWARE CLOBBERERS: Spybot S&D at www.safer-networking.org and Ad-Aware at www.lavasoftusa.com
FIREWALL: Zone Alarm at www.zonelabs.com

LOL Everyone has their choice of anti-virus software, personally I like Norton, have never had a problem with it and it has saved me from viruses many times... its all a matter of ones opinion. Use what is right for you, do some research and choose, anything is better than nothing and you can always change to something better. Do keep in mind though (regardless of what everyone raves) You do get what you pay for, FREE is just that. One with a good firewall is a great idea also.

Using Linux rather than Windows is the best free internet security software.

Norton is over-rated, I've tried it, AVG, Panda, and Mcafee.
To be honest I found Mcafee to be best.
Although if you are looking for a free anti-virus programe then AVG is spot on. Infact when my girlfriends subscription to Mcafee runs out then I'll most prob go back to AVG.

I use Norton Internet Security. It has anti-virus, firewall and anti-spam which suited to my security needs.

No its not Norton is rubbish its full of flaws. I would highly reccommend Zone Alarm. Its has internet secuity including virus protection and firewall. You simply cannot beat it.

avg have a great free version and also fantastic ones to buy you will need to search the name though because it is on the manufacturers web site and not a stand alone site

Zone Alarm has its gliches also - it`s not that good!
Norton has it`s good and bad points.
AVG is not to bad.
If you are on the internet without anitvirus & antispyware, you`re either brave or crazy :-)
