Question by Deltagirl: Any one know of a great virus protection for a laptop that is not Norton or Mcfee.?
I need a great computer protection for my Laptop. The Norton I got for my laptop for some reason never caught the virus. I had to go into the program and make it do a scan before it caught it. I need something that will alert me when there is a problem. And then fix it. Anyone know of a good program?

    Avast from Alwil Software is both good and free. I’ve been using it for years on both laptops and desktops. You have to re-register once a year, but it is free. http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

    I changed to Avast a few months ago, I have also got superantispyware and Malwarebytes. I recently changed to Comodo firewall which seems fine and I seem to boot up quicker. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans Hackers etc. 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
