IPhone 3GS Best Antivirus Program/Protection
I heard a lot of rumors on how IOS does not really need an antivirus because the software application is quite sure just within himself. Even if I have OCD and I am always worried about something. That being said what is the best Antivirus Program (free) that I need to download for the safety of my Iphone 3GS. Even if I could not ever having a virus problem or whatever the cause. It is just a type of "peace of mind" of the thing im dealing with.
It must also be free software because I have no money to invest in the purchase of a request right now.
Please someone help me to find what I'm looking for.
May God bless those who can help me understand my situation.
Thanks again.
There is NO antivirus program for iOS. Because iOS does not privilege any sufficient demand to see what is happening in the operating system or install apps. Your 3GS is safe. There is no need and that you can not use an antivirus.

It is better to have two antivirus programs to be sure?
original title: MS Security Essentials?
I am now under Webroot Internet Security complete and I was wondering if I have or should run/download MS Security Essentials? I read somewhere that it is better to have two antivirus programs to be sure. What should I do?
Hi Richard,
Contrary to what OU a course, you must have a real-time protection anitmalware/antivirus program installed on your computer. Major reason being disputes between two to treat an infection. However, you can have other scanners on request, indeed since no antimalware/antivirus software is 100% sure I'd say at least one to increase daily or weekly scans with your resident security program.
Microsoft Security Essentials offers protection in real time for your home or small business PC that protects against software viruses, spyware and other malicious software.
If you Choose Microsoft Security Essentials cleaning/unistall this guarantee as well as programs of real-time protection previous using tools and methods remove properly.

Another recommendation is free WinPatrol. Although not a software program anti malware/antivirus in the usual sense of the term, it monitors your computer and landlords of any changes to your system that could be associated with malware. It can be run in real time with other products without conflidt because it does not take immediate action on the issues.

Microsoft Security Essentials is compatible with Antivirus programs?
I want to know if Microsoft Security Essentials can be used in conjunction with other programs such as Norton or McAfee Antivirus. Usually, a single Antivirus program denies it. I'm just curious, because I have Norton and I installed Microsoft Security Essentials on a VAIO from XP because Microsoft was pushing it and nobody mentions do not use if you already have antivirus software installed. It seems that everything is working OK, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. Please advise because I wouldn't do something that would affect my computer.
Thank you

Oh yay fellow in love norton and mcafee. I can add you to the fan club? We have T-shirts, expressing our... love... for these programs. hehe
I'm kidding. On the fan club. I also share the feeling that
be freeze before I used these products. Conflicts occur between 2 programs trying to do the same thing, so if you had 2 AV programs both with antivirus real-time protection, they would have conflict while dealing with the virus.
So as long as you do not have 2 programs trying to protect you against the same thing at the same time, you'll probably be fine.
On my computer I have MSE for protection in real time, Spybot to monitor my registry (among others), and Malwarebytes just like an anti-malware scanner, not real-time protection and I cannot remember a time when I never had any conflict.
