AntiVirus

[Chevy350TPI 12]

I'm running Norton right now ... time to renew the subscription this weekend but I won't fork out money for that.

Anyone recommend anything else? I'm running ... yeah, forget the name of it on my other computer - little red 'V' inside of blue and white shield (McAfee? I don't know) ... seems to work fine.

Suggestions please. Norton has worked fine in the past, I just want something free.

spybot and spysweeper work for any spyware, but I have zone alarm running at all times

[Chevy350TPI 12]

Yeah I've got Spyware Doctor, MRU Blaster, Spybot, and Ad-Aware for the spyware crap.

I'm looking for something to run all and every day like Norton.

Get a subscription hack ... My Norton Internet Security subscription expires in 2116

[Chevy350TPI 12]

This is just Norton Antivirus 2002 - been getting the LiveUpdates every time they offer them so it's up to date I would imagine.

And you're speaking to the guy who unplugs the computer at work because he doesn't know how to turn it off / doesn't have the patience to sit there and wait for it to turn off.

AVG is a great free one. It misses no more than any of the other big ones. However if you have a little cash the best of the best is Kaspersky as it also detect trojans which no other AV does effectively. As for the free Norton, that is warez, aka pirated software, i.e. stolen...

no copyright laws?

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Jmac 24]

There are copyright laws, but every case that had anything to do with downloading software off the internet has ruled that downloading is perfectly legal. However, uploading pirated software is not.

Not for that price.

Only thing Apple allowed in the house is the iPod ... even that's pushing it.
