    Solution to infection from Viruses/Adware/Spyware/Hijacking

    I had Mcafee Antivirus, SpywareBlaster, Spybot 1.3 and AdAware SE installed on my PC. Every few days I would run AdAware SE and Spybot and they would always find and delete some infection. I then Installed Kaspersky's Antivirus and SpywareGuard.
    Now when I run AdAware and Spybot NO infections are ever found.
    I highly recommend these software.
    SpywareGuard is free and Kaspersky Antivirus can be downloaded for a 30day free trial.

    There are a number of members here, myself included, that regard Kaspersky very highly.

    Also Kaspersky is updated two or three times a day, unlike Mcafee and Norton which is updated once or twice a week.
    But SpywareGuard unfortunately has not been updated for over an year.
    I know this Website dosn't and shouldn't recommend one manufacturer over another, But these two software are in my humble opinion "NUMBER ONE"

    There are a lot of programs that are recommended by a lot of people on a daily basis but none that are sponsored by VRDR. I do think it's important at least with security programs to make sure that our members know which ones we all think are good and which ones we don't (opinions on *that* can vary wildly but that's another issue LOL) because not only can ones computer health be at risk but personal and private data like credit card numbers, for example, can as well.
