Is norton antivirus we get from google pack really free?

It's free for a period of time, the you have to pay online to update the definitions or go out and buy it. (Little hint here, even if you buy the program you only get free updates for a period of time and then will have to pay to update your subscription). It's a total rip-off. Download AVG, it's always free, updates everyday for free and catches alot of stuff Norton will not. Also Norton will mess up your system bigger than anything I have ever seen. Stay away from it.



Is norton antivirus we get from google pack really free?free antivirus download



Yes, it is free. I have used it for several months and I have not seen any threat of expiration---Even if there were an expiration date, I believe that you can always just download it again. There are also weekly updates to the virus definition file, but you can always get a daily update by downloading directly from the Norton site.

No. The software is 'free' but you must pay the annual subscription fee for the virus definitions. A far better anti-virus is AVG and it is still free. You can get it here:

It does not run as 'heavy' as Norton's and is far easier to use. Best of all - virus definitions are free for the life of the product. I have used AVG and recommend it to all of my clients for years!
Yes, it is free. But I will suggest u, dont use it. It will create many problems for u. Use avg instead. That is better.
Yep says so right on the box
I didn't get it from there, but probably not. it might be "Sign up for one year and get three months" thing...
probably not.

I have Avast Antivirus in my PC. Now I need free Firewall. Any suggestions?free spyware remobal



fire wall from what??? this is the Q u must ask ur self 1st ,not just coz you want a fire wall !!



as a usual user u dont need firewall coz even firewall cant protect u ,,all u need is a good antivirus upgraded just in case



and a firefox browser coz it automatically block pop ups and some ads not all but it have 1000000000 of extensions of security and fancy that can change ur web life into something new ,and by the way spywares dont affect it ,,



zonealarm: this is a real great prog u can even depend on it as anti and fire it's suite is great but some times it gets buzzy from all undetected alerts it tells u i give it 8 from 10 if u can handle it



windows firewall:is **** it just keep telling it need upgrade and it never doo,soo make it off,if MS can make a good firewall system belive me it would sell it in the market



give a try to www.opendns.com it will speed ur surfing and u can even filter ur web life it's like a software thats not installed on ur pc real awesome give it a try



dont depend a lot on antivirus or firewalls and all this



blah blah



dont feel u r watched coz we are nothing as end users and if one day u become a super user belive me u will know how to protect ur files,,so dont expend ur cpu and ram on nothing.

I need a good antivirus thats the full version and for free?

right answer gets best answer plz



I need a good antivirus thats the full version and for free?free spyware



I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following linkhttp://www.computeractive.co.uk/. On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps



I need a good antivirus thats the full version and for free?live update



AVG works really well for me.



Not entirely certain where I found it because I downloaded it a really long time ago, but it frequently updates and I've never had to pay for it - and never had any problems which is amazing because I get a lot of files sent me from all sorts or weird and wonderful people.



If you google it (google knows all) you should find the download page pretty easily.

Go to http://www.infowebcentral.com/secure/ and at the bottom click on "Free Anti-Virus Software".
go to http://www.avast.com/ and download
Go for AVG free home edition...n update it on regular basis....its pretty good...n moreover if u used panda/norton/aol/anitirus/qh earlier...u will see the difference....AVG will never slow ur system...the process is pretty well organized.....



I can tell u frm my exp....in 2004/my final yr of engineerin we were threatened by Parite...no antivirus of tht thime were unable to remove this virus........thn we found AVG....try it n njoy it.....
AVG and AVAST are the two mostly recommended; they are both free. Avast requires yearly registration; AVG does not. Updates are good for both, but Avast has fewer problems. The AOL antivirus is good but acts like a virus itself and prevents legitimate downloads and installation of some of your programs.



And good luck trying to get rid of that AOL program. At least Norton has a free tool at Symantec to get rid of Norton; it would be helpful if AOL provided a similar tool. My personal favorite is Avast, of the free anti-virus programs. Nothing is 100% though, and switching to Mozilla Firefox or the latest Opera browsers eliminate spyware and malware pretty much. PC World, Kim Commando, Leo Laporte all give good tips.
notrin antivirus is my favorite
Avast Anti-Virus.....

Spybot - Search %26 Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S%26D is free.
