get the following, all are free for a safe surfing experience,\n\n\nANTI VIRAL\n\nAVG (free) http://free.grisoft.com/\n\n\nFIREWALL \n\nZoneAlarm http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/freeDownload.jsp\n\nWEB BROWSER - http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird\n\nEMAIL  use thunderbird. It has a good built in spam filter and learns when you teach it. http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird\n\nSPYWARE\n\n http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/\n\n http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html \n\n\nand if you have a wireless router follow these tips,\n\n\n1. Use WPA encryption (WPA-PSK) it's less crackable then WEP.\n\n2. Make a passphrase that is upper & lower case and has some numbers thrown in there as well, again harder to crack.\nsome like mAkE1t5eCurE0rel53 and as long as possible.\n\n3. Use MAC access control so only you or authorized PC's can connect (even if you do have encryption turned on)\n\n4. Turn off DHCP use static addresses.\n\n5. Turn off SSID (and change it) unless your card really needs it (some do)\n\n6. Change username/password of access unit front end\n\n7. Ensure you have the usual firewall enabled on your PC.\n\n8. Paranoia rules, turn WLAN off if your not using it :)

The Geeks at Best Buy nearly always recommend "Spy Sweeper", which was originally just spyware, but now includes antivirus.  You can get it at Best Buy or download it at:\nhttp://webroot.com\n\nAlso, the big ISP's usually provide all the above for free.  Maybe your ISP does, too.

Have you tried AVG anti-virus, it's free, and does a decent job.

First of all dump McCrappy (same goes for anyone with Norton or AVG)... it is just a waste of resources (especially McCrappy & AVG) and gives a false sense of security...\n\nThen go download Avast (free version) from http://www.avast.com ... give them the info they ask (they will not spam you or give out your info) and download and install... they will e-mail you a license number good for 14 months and when it runs out you request another free license... Avast is resource friendly and does a superior job to any other antivirus program out there.... In the 4 years I have been using, I have got 2 viruses that got by Avast... both times my fault and both times soon as Avast did a system scan it found them so I could remove...

If you want free use AVAST or AVG for Antivirus (completely free)\n\nIf you want spyware use AdAware SE or Spybot S&E (completely free)

i don't believe that a free antivirus can be best. it can be good, but not best. like grisoft's free software. it is good, but it also got a lot of times when it doesn't detect a virus going rampant in my computer.\n\nbest way to have free that is best is to consider to join beta testers of antivirus softwares. either they'd give you the software for free or you'll have a good deal for it at the end of the testing.

Howdy\n\nI have a few Free Antivirus programs I can reccomend to you.. I have tried all of the following and liked them! :O)\n\nhttp://www.avast.com/ avast!\nhttp://www.free-av.com/ AntiVir HBEDV\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/ AVG Free Edition\n\nAlso, if your willing to experiment (this product as of now is still in testing)\nhttp://www.windowsonecare.com/ Windows OneCare Beta\n\nIf your fine with forking over a couple bucks, I have another solution -- I am VERY satisfied with the current version of Norton Systemworks. (http://www.symantec.com/home_homeoffice/products/internet_security/nav2006/index.html ). This program is worth every cent, you won't be sorry!\n\nIf you would like to use Norton Antivirus for Free, along with many other tools (Adaware Personal Edition, for deleting spyware) it IS that is possible... You will have to download it through the google pack, which URL is provided here:\nhttp://pack.google.com/\n\nAlso, Check with your ISP (Internet Service Provider).  They are the people that connect you to the internet.  Sometimes your ISP can provide your with AntiVirus for free. (Netzero, AOL, comcast, etc, do.) :O)
