Free Antivirus
#1
I used to use AVG, but picked up a very nasty critter which changed my registry and did some other nasty damage. This was not picked up by AVG. Had to reformat AGAIN. I have done some research and found another one that seems to have got good reviews and is easy to install and configure. It automatically downloads the updates. I get a popup saying the database has been updated.
