Which antivirus, antimalware, antispyware, etc, should I use?

I’ve recently wiped my laptop clean back to it’s orignal state, and I’m currently covered by the Norton Internet Security, but I know that won’t last long. Before wiping my laptop, I was using Avast Antivirus for virus protection and Malwarebytes for malware protection. I’ll likely install those again unless there are better free online antivirus and antimalware programs. which would you recommend? I’ve heard of spyware too, and was wondering what a good antispyware free program might be. and are there any other anti programs that i should be using to protect my pc? that i can get online for free of course. thanks for your answers

  • For Windows 8 — It already has a anti virus built in – Windows Defender which incorporates Microsoft Security Essentials. All you need to do is install Malwarebytes (free).

    Other operating system – Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes.

    Both are FREE.

    Don’t be misled by Free anti virus programs, I have been using them for years and have found they work just a good as the ones you pay money for. Do don’t waste your money.

    Remember this. Nothing is 1 Percent effective. The bad guys are always ahead.

  • i would a highly recommended to use avast internet security update version. thanks sir.

  • I recommend Avast. Just use it again. If it has worked, I don’t think you should switch. Be very careful when downloading “anti-virus” from the internet, because those are viruses in themselves sometimes.

  • Avast + Malwarebytes is a good combination.
