I have Norton internet security but it will expire soon. I was wondering if there were any programs out there for free. There probably isn't but I just thought I'd ask. Thanks in advance.
Yea there is a bunch of free programs that can be a quite effective defense.
Free antiviruses
Important:You may only have one antivirus and one firewall
Avira Antivir Free or Avast! Home Edition
Avira has a easier to use interface and a slightly higher detection rate
Avast! has boot time scanning(cool) and email scanning. Also has antispyware protection
I would avoid AVG free
Reason: It has a lower detection free norton internet security downloadrate, less features and has no antirootkit
Free AntiSpywares
You can have more than one antispyware
Malwarebytes AntiMalware
and/or
SuperAntiSpyware
Some extra stuff you should do
Get a free firewall
You may only have one firewall
Comodo Firewall Pro
Alternative
Zonealarm Free Firewall
Switch to Firefox from IE
Use the MyWot program
Do not use AVG, their free version of software is ineffective. Go to pctools.com and download the free version of ant-virus however, remember, you are "not" going to get a very effective anti-virus software for free from any website, Afree norton internet security download business is in business to make money not lose it. There are only two anti-virus software compatible with the windows software, with signed drivers by Microsoft, one is norton the other is mcafee. Non signed software will breach your internet security, without a doubt, Don't be surprised if you start missing system files after using other anti-virus programs.
Avast. I got a free version, I just have to renew my license every 6 months or so.
Use this link:
if that doesn't work use Google or Yahoo to search for free Avast downloads. Hope it helps.
there is a free version.
