Siders77 Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) Anti Virus: AVG Free. Anti-Spyware: Spybot Search & Destroy. Anti-Adware: Adaware SE. Popups: Get Firefox. It's what I use because it has a built in blocker. Google for these. EDIT: Because I'm nice here are the links: AVG. Spybot Search & Destroy. Adaware. Firefox. Sorted.

Siders77 Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 I find the Windows Firewall is just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 If you're behind a router (in-built firewall), the you probably don't need a software firewall, and certainly nothing more than the Windows Firewall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
