  For an anti-virus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, if you're ready
  to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, I recommend one (are not
  run several) of the following three:
   
  Avira AntiVir
  Avast
  Microsoft Security Essentials
   
  You also need anti-spyware software. I recommend that you download and
  install MalwareBytes AntiMalware (freeware).

• Please help me. What is the best antivirus? capable of detecting all viruses

  Please help me. What is the best antivirus? capable of detecting all viruses

  I would recommend mse, and here is the important part, XP as a limited user. If you are running as an administrator, a virus can make any chages to your system, including tampering with any AV you have installed, mse, windows firewall up and running as a limited user must provide a lot of protection,

  running as a limited user can be an inconvience initially, but once you learn how to adapt to it, your pc will be more secure and your exoierence of the user shouldn't be touched that.

• What is the best antivirus, spyware software etc.

  Please can someone help me. I bought a laptop Satellite Pro M40, which is beautiful and installed Norton Internet Security 2006 and Ad-aware, however, I am so paranoid since going on broadband because of Trojans and spyware invade my pc. I posted another message because I control panel open as a shadow image in the background so did a complete reinstall using Toshiba disc, now another shadow appeared when online called Padtouch_wndllabel. I hear that spyware can disguise himself as other progs. I need real help base really like its all new to me, but wonder if there is any other protection measures I can take to check if my laptop has been infected or stop it in the future? -without going into the registry etc files? Maybe I should post this sub forum Satellite Pro that would be better?

  Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

  Hey Beavis,

  I hope you enjoy your new laptop! Regarding the "best" antivirus and anti-spyware, there are unfortunately no one answer. Of course, having a protection is better than nothing, so you have installed Norton security suite is a very good start indeed.

  Personally, I use a number of anti-spyware, including SE Ad-aware, SpyBot Search Destroy programs & and Windows Defender from Microsoft. All this should be happy along the other, but it is very important that you have only one anti-virus program does need to 'control' over the flow of data in and out of your computer. More than a performer normally leads to each program struggling against each other, usuallymaking the computer unusable in the process.

  The seedbed thing to remember with any of these programs is that the regular updates and analysis of the system are the key to catch any visitors natsy - try once a week to start and see how you go from there.

  The other "trick" is to be sensitive to what you do on the internet: by clicking on 'Yes' to all these ads, or accepting what, you haven't read or heard invites the spyware on your system.

  I hope this does not sound too confusing or put you off using your new computer to its full potential - if you're not sure, just after here on the forums. If it's going to save you from frustration and concern, there is no such thing as a stupid question.

  Good luck, enjoy, and I hope this was help...

• What is the best antivirus when running both OSX and Windows 10?

  I have a new Macbook Pro running OSX El Capitan and 10 Windows via Parallels Desktop. I installed AVG Free on the Mac and Win 10 sides, however, it seems to be really stuck on side Windows - that is, he is always "up to date" and driving me crazy. Questions - a) do I need to run an antivirus software on both platforms? And someone has recommendations on programs that are better use? I have an active subscription to McAfee for Windows, I think I could install instead.

  Thanks for any input.

  McAfee, Norton, AVG, etc... They are OK. Usually, you get FREE antivirus software with your internet subscriber.

  Comcast gives you FREE Norton. Check with your site to internet subscribers to the FREE anti-virus software.

• What is the best antivirus program is recommended

  I have received warnings, but have installed so I don't really understand wjy I need more Defender

  Hello

  Windows Defender is AntiSpyware and antivirus not.

  Here's what I use and recommend:

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
  Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

  Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
  (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
  http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
  a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
  Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
  a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  What is the best management software fonts for Windows 7 with automatic activation for CC?

  We ran 5 Fusion (suitcase) for years, but it's SO slow with Adobe CC (worked great with stand-alone software versions before CC versions), but it slows down the PC to a crawl now.

  Font management programs out there that work better with CC + have automatic activation?

  Please search for resolution here or you can post the application to the support of Extensis for Adobe Creative Cloud 2015 - manage ThisFont Management, Digital Asset Management and creation of information
