What's the best FREE anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-adware software available?


Ad-Aware is not free?

To remove spyware,there are many solutions exist, all of them with their own strengths and weaknesses.
You had better install at least 2 antispyware
Top 5 anti-spywares reviews,comparisons and download links on
http://www.anti-spyware-center.com
You can download and scan your computer for free.

If you want a free anti-virus I recommend in order of popularity, but please choose the right one for you (install only one):

1. AVG Free
a. A simple interface (easier to use than Avast! and Avira)
b. Can detect about 82.82% of viruses
Cons: low virus detection

2. Avast!
a. Real-time protection
b. It has an option to delete a virus once found
c. Can detect about 87.46% of viruses.
Cons: Too many icons and confusing user interface

3. Avira AntiVir
a. It can detect malware better than Avast and AVG
b. It's cute umbrella icon
c. Can detect about 94.26% of viruses
Cons: A very sluggish update

If you also want anti-spyware and I would recommend getting Ad-aware and Spybot Search and Destroy (they are also free).

zone alarm is very good

AVG

I've got " Avast " seems to work fine.

I find avg from grisoft very good.

I have AVG which is pretty good.

Windows Defender -

Firewall:

Always use only one antivirus and firewall at a time to prevent driver conflicts.

its simplier and better to download flashdrive scanner plus virus fighting tool from http://smspoint.googlepages.com its free and safe

download http://www.download.com-spyware-doctor-s

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following linkhttp://www.computeractive.co.uk/. On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps

Ad Aware, Spy bot - search and destroy,Spy ware Doctor are some good spy ware removers. AVG Anti virus and McAfee virus scan are also supposed to help a lot.check out http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-sAFtLsc8e... for more details.

You can free download antispyware 2008
http://www.antispyware2008.info which is an essential tool to keep your system free of dangerous spywares, protecting your privacy and your PC.
It also works very well for me
