Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 I found these links last spring, and I swear by adaware, and another free program that comes in the google pack called spyware doctor. There are other free versions of spyware doctor, but the one that comes in the google pack is the best. My friend Tom is a programmer, and helped me soup up my first laptop two years ago. The first thing we did was uninstall Norton and install Clamwin. Thats because he said that Norton is good and all, but it so severely slows a computer down, and blocks anything that might have the smallest spyware, that it would be like visiting New York city in a combat tank, and never getting out of the tank. You would be safe but at quite a price. Clamwin is here, and is used to scan for viruses, and Adaware is already linked by , and I vouch that it is pretty good. http://www.clamwin.com/ http://pack.google.com/intl/en/pack_installer_new.html?hl=en & gl=us & ciNum=11 all the stuff except the Norton is really cool thats in the google pack, but you need to remember to only check the ones that you want to install. Google earth and the google screen saver are cool too. Spyware doctor is my fave though. It has a cool AAANNNKKK! sound when it finds the pesky spyware bugs. http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-spyware.htm Mac-out of context Mac... was it you that told me you had a virus protection that you did not have to buy but got off the internet. If it was, could you tell me what it was again? I would really appreciate it. We cannot afford those other ones...they surely are getting crazy in price, now. The one seemed to run constantly and slowed our computer down more and was constantly downloading things.
