Thanks! I appreciate this!!
and even if they are turned on - if they are not working properly, that makes
me nervous. I like an operational fireall, & anti-virus on my computer. Plus -
I always have spywardguard and spywareblaster on , and I run my anti- spyware
programs often.
I have Norton's anti-spam 2004 on this computer - so far, I'm not too thrilled
with it. I may go back to mail washer. I'm not crazy about the spam coming into
my computer! and half of the spam is picked up by norton's filters, and half
isn't. A friend said she is using McAfee's and she really likes it. I 'dunno'
!!

Hi Cris,
Avast and H & Bev AntiVir are both good free AV programs
eTrust ez Armour LE is the lite version of CA's eTrust wich is also good.
I have links to them on my virus pages;
http://www3.telus.net/mikebike/hackfix_program_updates.htm
An AV program is only effective if it is truned on , full time scanning and
udated frequently.

Other than AVG, what FREE anti-virus programs do people recommend?
I put AVG on here, but am not at all happy with it.
It won't scan e-mail on anyone's screen names but mine. I think e-mail
scanning is very important.
And every time my screen name needs to be activated again, I need to log
off and log back on - and sometimes re-boot, in order for my e-mail to work,
because AVG is 'stuck' - liike now. I'm typing this, but it won't be sent
until I close everything to re-log in, or re-boot.
I still plan on purchasing an anti-virus software down the road - but not
right now.
I know that there was one free one suggested - I don't recall what it was -
so if you wouldn't mind telling me again, that would be great!
and has anyone heard of AVAST ? It sounds familiar to me, but I don't know
anything about it.
What about the cd that I have from the microsoft service pack 1? 1 year of
eTrust ez Armour LE - computer Associates?????
thanks!!
Cris
