Review of free norton::How do I get 100% safety on my Norton AntiVirus - Ask ...








If               you               have               a               computer               that               connects               to               the               Internet,               you               need               to               protect               it               against               things               like               viruses,               spyware               and               other               malicious               programs               that               could               infect               your               system.

If               you               don't               want               to               have               to               pay               for               this               protection               for               whatever               reason,               or               if               you               just               want               to               try               out               some               programs               for               your               computer               before               buying,               your               not               alone.
               I               would               not               want               to               have               to               pay               for               some               of               the               programs               I               have               seen               on               the               Internet               that               some               companies               have               put               out.

Some               can               be               down               right               frustrating               to               use               and               are               so               confusing               that               the               common               home               user               would               be               lost               trying               to               use               it,               much               less               computer               technicians               like               those               at               companies               who               specialize               in               trying               out               software               for               our               benefit.

I               have               looked               at               the               current               crop               of               anti               virus               software               and               protection               and               give               you               some               help               whether               it's               free               anti-virus               or               trial               versions               for               you               to               try               out               and               see               if               you               want               to               spend               your               money               on               the               programs.

               I               am               doing               this               because               I               have               kids               in               4-H               and               they               just               bought               a               laptop,               it's               used               but               has               the               latest               of               everything,               even               Norton               Anti-virus,               but               only               the               trial               version.

But               they               don't               want               to               have               to               spend               the               money               on               software               when               they               won't               be               going               on               the               Internet               much               and               when               they               do               it               will               probably               be               at               my               home               or               at               the               local               4-H               office               on               their               system.

I               do               want               the               computer               protected               though.

And               I'll               start               out               with               some               of               the               free               anti-virus               protections               available               over               the               Internet.

               With               any               anti-virus               protection               there               are               two               important               parts               to               them,               updates               and               removal.

If               the               program               does               not               get               updated               regularly               against               the               most               current               viruses               then               it               is               no               good               against               those               viruses.

And               if               you               can't               remove               the               viruses               the               program               only               tells               you               that               you               are               infected               and               you'll               have               to               go               elsewhere               to               get               rid               of               it.

               AntiVir               Personal               Edition               Classic               is               a               free               program               available               here:               http://www.free-av.com/               
               They               have               free               anti-virus               for               windows               and               Linux,               Free               BSD,               Open               BSD               and               Solaris.

This               is               nice               for               those               that               have               those               other               operating               systems.

The               programs               are               free               and               they               have               download               sites               where               you               download               the               installer               for               the               program               and               then               the               program               will               download               and               install               on               your               computer.

This               works               fine               if               you               are               already               protected               with               the               anti-virus               or               have               a               firewall               like               windows               on.

If               you               do               not               have               protection               you               should               not               go               on               to               the               Internet               without               at               least               your               firewall               for               windows               on.

They               have               the               usual               updates               for               their               program               which               is               what               anti-virus               is               all               about.

               AVG               Anti-Virus               is               another               free               program               available               here:               http://www.download.com/AVG-Anti-Virus-Free-Edition/3000-2239_4-10342876.html?tag=lst-6-2               
               It               is               from               GriSoft               and               is               another               free               program               available               over               the               Internet,               this               one               is               recommended               by               many               sites               and               especially               CNET.

They               give               it               a               4               out               of               5               rating               and               users               on               their               sites               have               rated               it               4.5               out               of               5.

The               program               offers               anti-virus               protection               with               scheduled               scanning               and               rescue               disc               creation               for               MSDOS               scanning               to               get               rid               of               infections               at               that               level               if               Windows               won't               work               on               you.

The               interface               is               easy               to               use               but               pretty               bland.

This               is               the               one               that               I               am               going               to               use               on               our               new               addition               to               the               4-H               Tech               Team               and               will               see               how               well               it               works               over               time.

               It               is               very               easy               to               install               and               setup,               it               took               me               about               fifteen               minutes               to               load               and               set               up               the               program,               with               about               a               half               hour               to               run               the               anti               virus               in               between               that               set               up               time.

It               runs               the               anti-virus               to               make               sure               it               starts               out               with               a               clean               installation.

It               is               easy               to               set               up               and               use.

A               plain               interface               with               buttons               to               the               different               areas               such               as               virus               scan,               rescue               disk               creation               and               task               scheduler.

The               disk               creation               is               a               part               that               I               do               not               use               on               my               other               PC's,               it               is               used               if               you               do               get               a               virus               and               need               the               computer               information               that               gets               infected.

It               creates               a               copy               of               your               system               files               for               the               program               to               use               in               case               of               infection               to               use               for               a               new               install               of               those               files.

The               other               program               I               use               called               PC-cillin               does               not               use               this,               it               goes               about               the               process               in               another               way.

               These               two               are               the               only               free               anti               virus               programs               that               I               found               on               the               Internet               that               I               would               recommend.

There               are               others               but               I               have               only               recommended               a               couple               that               are               rated               as               good               ones               to               use.

If               you               go               to               Download.com               and               go               to               the               anti-virus               section               here:               http://www.download.com/Antivirus/3150-2239_4-0.html?tag=nav_dir

               You               can               find               some               other               free               programs               using               the               buttons               at               the               top               under               rating               to               sort               the               ones               by               CNET               or               user               ratings               and               the               buttons               at               the               bottom               under               license               to               choose               the               free               programs.

At               the               same               place               you               can               find               trial               versions               of               others,               just               keep               the               license               at               all               or               free               to               try               and               you               can               read               about               the               other               programs               available               for               you               to               try.

One               that               is               highly               recommended               on               many               sites               and               by               a               lot               of               computer               sources               such               as               PC               World               is               Trend               Micro.

               They               have               three               free               programs               that               are               great               for               your               computer.

They               have               two               programs               called               CWshredder               and               Spyware               Scanner               that               are               utilities               for               cleanup               and               spyware               removal,               you               can               read               about               them               at               their               website.

The               cw               shredder               is               a               cool               web               Trojan               remover               that               removes               unwanted               cool               web               bugs               on               your               computer,               and               Spyware               Scanner               is               just               that,               a               scanner               and               removal               tool               for               spyware.

The               third               program               is               Housecall,               a               free               virus               scan               that               will               scan               your               computer               and               tell               you               if               you               are               infected               with               a               virus.

If               you               are               infected               it               will               try               to               remove               the               virus               but               you               may               have               to               go               elsewhere               to               get               it               removed.

               Here               is               a               site               to               try               for               removal               of               viruses               for               free:               http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_cleaner.html

               Avast               has               a               free               virus               and               worm               removal               tool               that               works               very               well,               especially               as               it's               free.

I               have               not               used               it               on               my               own               computer               but               did               on               the               new               one               and               it               works               very               well               and               is               easy.

The               big               problem               with               infected               files               from               worms               or               viruses               is               that               they               may               change               system               files               and               make               your               system               not               work,               or               will               get               errors               or               strange               things               will               happen.

The               Avast               recovers               the               infected               files               and               removes               the               worm               or               virus               and               you               may               need               to               restart               your               machine               so               the               system               can               reload               a               system               file               or               registry               file               that               was               possibly               infected.

It               does               work               well               and               is               easy.

               For               anti-virus               protection               that               you               have               to               pay               for,               I               would               suggest               using               Trend               Micro's               PC-cillin               Internet               Security               2005.

This               is               one               program               that               is               worth               the               cost,               it               has               not               only               anti-virus               but               Internet               firewall               and               spyware,               adware               and               malware               protection               and               removal.

It               is               easy               to               use,               configure               and               you               can               set               it               up               to               automatically               scan,               update               and               remove               viruses.

               There               are               others               but               you               can               ask               people               what               they               use               and               find               out               from               friends,               relatives               or               coworkers               what               is               good.

The               biggest               thing               I               would               recommend               is               a               trial               version               to               see               if               you               like               it.

That               way               you               can               tell               what               it               is               you               like               and               dislike               and               find               out               if               you               want               to               spend               the               money               on               it,               or               just               go               with               a               free               program               and               save               yourself.

But               the               big               point               is               to               protect               yourself               and               your               computer               against               viruses               and               all               the               other               stuff               out               there.
