Virus Protection

What do you have?...How easy is it to use?...Does it handle ALL viruses, worms and spyware?...How much does it cost?...And how well do you like it?


Adaware and Avast suck, in my opinion......Panda isn't too bad. but it costs more to cover spyware...

Spyware is what certain sites will attach to your computer so they can see where you go. THEN the adware pops up to show you unwanted ads similar to where you have gone.

I had to reformat my computer cause i could only get rid of some of the adware/spyware. The places that offered to get rid of it, but only after you paid. The free ones did shit, and did almost as much damage as the "ware's" themselves.

Yahoo has one, seems to do ok. I'm to affraid to venture out now though lol.

That's the one i had. Doesn't get rid of everything. Seems to work if you don't have any major shit or anything.
