any good virus places?

[450raider]

ive switched to dsl over my old dial up a few months ago and have nothin but loved it so far but in the past week theres been a few hiccups coming on, such as i can load a page and itll do it but with "errors on page" and sometimes freeze momentarily and even popups like "take the stupid quiz" or "reccomended that you load this app." so i was just curious if theres anything out there thats free and that really works...... and im not gonna blow $40 anymore for that norton crap, because it gave me a world of trouble last time i had it..

thanks

AVG antivirus - free edition

Never get Norton....ever.


Thanks to the last trip to the computer repair store, I now have 5 anti-virus programs. Ad-Aware 2007, Ad-Watch 2007, AVG 7.5, HijackThis and Spybot. And as far as I know..They're all free editions because we weren't charged for any of 'em.

But because of all those programs, my computers butthole is so tight that if it was too fart...It'd sound like a dolphin squealing.

I use that too - Best free alternative IMO. It updates itself constantly too.
