Antivirus software on multiple computers?

Well, I'm sorry to hear that you paid for McAfee because you should have just used AVG Free.  Now, if this is a home environment (or non-profit organization) then you could just put AVG Free, http://free.grisoift.com/ on the laptop and you won't have to buy anything.  However, if this is some type of business (home or otherwise) then you will need to purchase one of the other AVG versions (if not then you can use the Free version).\n\nThe best way to clean your computer is to use CCleaner, http://www.ccleaner.com/ which will remove junk files and clean out the cookies and temporary internet files.  It does a better job than the Windows disk cleaner.  It also has a scanner to remove old registry entries as well (a must if you have installed/uninstalled a lot of programs).

Not to my knowlage you can do the free virse scans off the websites and do it that way.  All anti-virus companys are pretty much the same.  Do not load more then one virse scanner on your computer because they will start to fight each other and make your computer run slow.

If you actuall care about your computer, you will not download any security software from the internet. Many or even most of the free stuff has been modified so that when you install it your computer, it becomes a relay for all sorts of annoying or illegal spam and other nasties.\n\nGet a Mac and you won't need any antivirus stuff.\n\nBuh-bye now!

Of the products on the market today for straight antivirus protection, I'd have to go with PC World's recommendation, BitDefender.\n\nhttp://www.pcworld.com/reviews/article/0,aid,124475,00.asp\n\nThat, in combination with good antispyware, a firewall, and protection against registry alterations and rootkits, will provide your PC with layers of effective defense, as opposed to using a single product that, if compromised, would leave your PC defenseless.

If you want free use AVAST or AVG for Antivirus (completely free)\n\nIf you want spyware use AdAware SE or Spybot S&E (completely free)

you should get basically the same protection from either one. the best antivirus is Norton. if you run both on the same machine one will compermise the other. check online for reviews of the software and see what is being said about it from the users.

Go here;\nhttp://www.av-comparatives.org/ \nand click "Comparatives" on the left menu.\nBTW Spybot is NOT an antivirus as someone suggested. The mis-information that the kids on here give out is incredible!\nGood luck.

From my professional experience as a consultant:\n\nNone of the Antivirus programs are perfect.  No one package "gets 'em all".  The real question to be answered here is which one is the friendliest to my computer yet still does an acceptable job of detecting viruses?  If I had to choose between Norton or AVG the answer would be AVG every time.  Norton (and McAfee) are notorious for screwing up computers and making user's lives miserable in other ways.  AVG is fast, clean, and does a good job.  It's also free if you're a home user.

AVG works best in tandem with programs like Spybot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware, and one other free antivirus of your choice (like say Mcafee Stinger).\nTrusting your system to only one antivirus or trojan/spyware detector is just suicidal. No ONE program will detect everything.\nPS - Norton is the best....at slowing your system down, hogging system resources...screwing up if you try to uninstall it...taking forever to do full system scans...yup...Norton is the best at SUCKING LARGE.

If by security systems, you mean programs that include a virus scanner, you should not use two at the same time.  They will conflict with each other and slow the computer to a crawl.

Get either Avast! (http://www.avast.com/)  or AVG anti virus (http://www.grisoft.com/doc/1). both work pretty good. and they are both free.

Please visit http://www.housecall.trendmicro.com and select 'Full System Scan'. SInce Antivirus software requires continous updating, I always use this FREE online system scan. It has been effective in removing 78 viruses from my computer so far. Hope you like it, don't hesitate in mailing me any other questions at asad_khawer@yahoo.com

NO!!! u must not have two antivirus programs in your PC. Sometimes there will be software conflict. You must uninstall one of them. Don't delete them. you can get free antivirus from the internet I never buy.

you should be able to put it on both computers, only register one, but in the future you can use AVG a free anti-virus or Avast! another good free anti-virus.  Don't use more than one anti-virus on a computer though as there could be compatibility issues.
