Comodo Internet Security - very good free solution - AV and firewall. Then for Malware - Malwarebytes (free version) and SUPER-antispyware (free version) - both require manual updates and manual scans - paid versions run silently in the background.

Posted: Sun Oct 17, 2010 10:57 pm by swarfendor437:My personal preference is COMODO Anti-virus and Firewall with built in Malware detection; you need more than one malware checker - Malwarebytes is good as is Super Anti-Spyware.

Is this thread hollow? There are certainly some echos in here.Search for COMODO free products and download the free Anti-Virus and Firewall.
For Spyware I use Malwarebytes and Super Anti-Spyware.

Re: FREE ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE AND FIREWALL
This month's PC Pro magazine (issue 221) reviews 16 free and paid-for security suites.
First place goes to Bitdefender's Internet Security 2013 at £19 inc VAT.
Avast Free Antivirus is best of the free ones.

Re: FREE ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE AND FIREWALL
For those that use BT as an ISP and have Option 2, 3 or Infinity, BT Net Protect Plus (McAfee) is available free to download and use on up to 7 PC's - if you like that sort of thing.
