Many people ask me," where can I find free antivirus software." The easiest and fastest way to find free malware removal software is to simply do a search on Google. Type in something like, "free antivirus software," and click on the links.
There are many companies offering internet security programs for free, some are good, some are not so good, and some you should stay well clear of.
I have tried many free anti-virus programs but my favorite is the one provided by AVG. Their security suites seem to get better by the year with the most recent version (8.00) providing the most up to the minute online security prevention available.
The AVG link scanner will actually alert you to sites that it considers a threat to your online security. It does this by showing different icons that tell you whether its safe for you to proceed or not. These icons are shown in your browser when searching for specific items or keywords.
The problem of, "rogue software,"seems to be on the increase. This type of software once installed on your PC or laptop can install spyware, viruses and all sorts of nuisance malware.
AVG's safe surfing software can or should alert you to websites that may be offering this kind of sofware to you as a free download thus helping you to avoid installing it in the first place.
McAfee, one of the better known providers of internet security packages made this kind of technology widely popular. Ok so its obvious that AVG is at the top of my list for free antivius software but they are not the only kids on the block.
Companies like Avira and Avast have also built formidable reputations in providing free and paid online security suite solutions, although I have not had the time to test them as thoroughly as I would like.
So the solution to the question, "where can I find free antivirus software." Do a quick search on Google to find one that suits you and you know to be reputable and install on it your PC. Even quicker is to take my advice and head straight over to the AVG site download their latest version and your good to go.
