McAfee has the latest Internet Security that includes \nVirusScan \nPersonal Firewall Plus \nSpamKiller \nPrivacy Service \nIs the 2006 one and is only 49.99 dollars, its worth. I also wanted free software protection, but did never found a good one, the only free ones, they don't do a sh-it, because they are free. But please do install it, just you will pay on time in one year. Try it!

Hi there,\n\nThe easiest and most reliable method to remove this and protect you against it PERMANENTLY is by using a program called Prevx1.\n\nThis currently has the strongest protection and removal capabilities of all security programs. (See Yahoo news article below).\n\nThey are currently offering a Free Trial of their program which will scan your computer and automatically remove this threat amongst others your other security programs have no doubt missed.  Go to the link below and click on "Clean & Protect my PC Now":\nhttp://www.prevx.com

Here you have some good and free antivirus program:\nhttp://askcomputerexpert.ws43.com/download/\nGet one!

There are many free security programs available for download. \n\nAn anti-virus program is a must. If your PC came with Norton or McAfee anti-virus and you have NOT been updating the virus definition files your PC is at risk. If your subscription to Norton or McAfee has lapsed and you have not renewed your subscription so that you can receive virus definition updates then your PC is at risk.\nAn anti-virus program is only effective if the virus\ndefinition files are updated on a regular basis (at\nleast once a week). If you are cheap (like me) there is a good anti-virus program called AVG from Grisoft that is free for personal use.\n\nYou can download it here (link near bottom of page):\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5\n\nBefore you install this program be sure to UNINSTALL\nany other anti-virus program that you currently have\ninstalled. Anti-virus programs don't play well\ntogether so you should have only one anti-virus\nprogram installed at any given time.\n\nThere are 3 good FREE programs that are effective at dealing with spyware, Ad-aware SE Personal (removes spyware), Spybot Search & Destroy (blocks and removes spyware), Spyware Blaster 3.2 (blocks spyware). I have all 3 of these programs installed on my PC and they work well together without any conflicts. After these programs are installed they need to be updated on a regular basis to be effective. These programs will have to be manually updated.\n\nYou can download Ad-aware SE Personal here (click on "Download Now" near top left of page):\nhttp://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-8022_4-10045910.html?part=dl-ad-aware&subj=dl&tag=top5\n\nAd-aware SE Personal will scan your PC and\nidentify spyware that should be removed. Ad-aware\ndefinition files are updated about once a week.\n\n\nSpybot Search and Destroy can be downloaded here:\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html\n\nSpybot Search and Destroy will "Check for Problems"\n(scan) your PC for spyware that should be removed.\nBe sure to use the "Immunize" feature that blocks\nknown spyware from getting onto your PC. Spybot\nSearch and Destroy detection files are updated about\nonce a month.\nAfter you update Spybot Search and Destroy each month be sure to "immunize" your PC so that the updated spyware threats will be blocked.\n\n\n\nSpyware Blaster can be downloaded here:\nhttp://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html\n\nAfter the program is installed be sure to click on\n"Enable All Protection" so the program blocks spyware.\nDetection files are updated about once a month. After updates are installed each month be sure to click on "Enable All Protection" again so the updated detection files are applied.\n\n\nYou may also want to use Mozilla Firefox as your\nprimary web browser. Firefox is an excellent program,\nand I have been using it for several months now.\nFirefox has fewer security flaws than Internet\nExplorer. You will still need to use Internet\nExplorer to download Microsoft updates.\nYou can download Firefox here:\nhttp://www.mozilla.com/\n\n\nBe sure you have all the critical updates from\nMicrosoft for Windows and Internet Explorer.\nOpen Internet Explorer, click on "Tools" and select\n"Windows Update", and download all the critical updates.\n\n\nYou also need a good firewall to protect your PC.\nWindows XP comes with a firewall. It's better than\nnothing but you need more protection. Zone Alarm Basic Firewall is a FREE firewall program that provides good protection.\n\nYou can download it here:\nhttp://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/catalog/products/sku_list_za.jsp?dc=12bms&ctry=US&lang=en&lid=dbtopnav_zass\n\nWhen you install Zone Alarm you will be prompted to\nchoose the free trial to Zone Alarm Pro or just Zone\nAlarm, choose the Zone Alarm (just the firewall)\nbecause it's free. Zone Alarm monitors incoming and\noutgoing transmissions. It will take a little e

Try to install following freewares:\n\n1 AVG to protect from viruses\n2 Spybot to protect you from spyware/adware\n3 Zonealarm as a firewall to protect unwanted access and data transfer from your computer\n\nInstall all above, legal and free.

For free antivirus, you can use AVG\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5\n\nFor free internet security, use ZONE ALARM\n\nhttp://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/catalog/products/sku_list_za.jsp;jsessionid=ESBmGDeYddFtwP1H5r2XYSMBD10Pey12bO1iuuvV1e8RTtyQ4qXJ!-634197662!-1062696903!7551!7552!NONE?dc=12bms&ctry=US&lang=en&lid=nav_za\n\nor just use Yahoo or Google to find it.
