zoboz111 Posted November 22, 2006 Author Share Posted November 22, 2006 i'm stuck not happy ... how cheap are they to buy ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neeeeeeeeeek Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Buying one wont make it any better. Search for avg free at download.com and install it. you can pay them for more features if you really want to, else download zone alarm firewall and adaware. the new free zone alarm has lots of new features.

sccsux Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 but it say the free version does'nt have: Anti-Spyware Available only with commercial versions Use Spybot and/or Adaware SE. Anti-Spam Most emails can be spam checked on the server. Or you can use a third party plugin for whichever email client you use. Firewall Of course not. It's an AntiVirus product, get zonealarm (or Sygate, or Comodo) 24/7 Technical Support But there is a free online support forum:). High-speed updates Wow... Updates only take a few (5 seconds). Multiple languages Hardly earth shattering though, is it? Detailed settings I admit, this is a drawback (though I just have it scan everything [that's 2 hard drives with 16 partitions] and it takes about an hour). Consent for commercial use Most free programs are free only for personal use, not commercial. If you're wanting an "all-in-one" I'd reccomend ZoneAlarmPro. It's got AV, FireWall, email protection, spyware protection and probably some other stuff. Though using AIOs can (sometimes) cause more problems than they solve (especially in the case of Norton).

melthebell Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 like i said theyre trying to nudge people into buying their all new all singing all dancing all in one packages get the free avg get a free firewall or make sure windows firewalls enabled get adaware and spybot for spyware Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
