For your PC to be OK, you have to protect it from viruses and hackers!
The virus is a small program that attach itself to other files from your computer and can harm your computer, by restarting it, freezing it or even by deleting your files or stealing your personal information.
To keep your computer safe from viruses you have to use an anti-virus program, like Norton, AVG, Kaspersky, Avast, Antivir, McAfee, Bit Defender. Some are free and others have trial versions.
Here you have some links to download the free versions of some of the best anti-virus programs, as well as other security tools:

If you combine these two together they are just as good as Norton Anti-Virus. I don't use Norton, but I use thses two and im totally virus free. These are both free too. Lucky you!

Avast is great. Haven't got a virus yet, but I would also suggest a hardware firewall for the ultimate protection.

You used the word 'reliable' and 'free' in the same sentence with 'anti-virus program.'
Sorry, one or the other.... can't have both.

in my opinion i admire Norton, in the journey that your computer already has viruses on it then you definately would possibly no longer of had the anti-virus set up wisely and advert as for the inter no longer working in line with danger somebody had already hacked your computer and your going to prefer extra effective than in common terms a scourge secure practices now to bathe your computer. i prefer to propose which you're taking your computer to get wiped sparkling and then set up a scourge secure practices on the computer and carry directly to date and run weekly virus scans on your computer(you could set norton as much as do this immediately) to make confident your no longer getting contaminated anymore.
