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 the web ..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

I would NOT download viruses if I were you. Just hope you will never need your new anti-virus protection.

No, you don't want to do that! Just be glad that you're using some kind of AV protection and be happy about that.
Testing an AV program is like testing a condom by finding a woman who's got an STD and having relations with her.

Dude are you crazy- you surely are not wanting to test an actual virus? I seriously think this has got to be a first- but if you are curious the best places to hit are gaming sites and myspace they carry the most crap I have ever seen on my computer.

Playing Russian Roulette with viruses is not recommended.

You must be mad. If you deliberately download them and install them you are telling the virus software to ignore them They will trash your machine, as the software will then never try to stop them.
