Antimalware 2009

3 free packages provide antimalware protection that's almost as good as a pay-for package like Norton. They're updated the same way just like the premium software so they should keep you protected. In fact two of the free packages are part of premium integrated suites.

AVG Free
www.avg.com
Antivirus. Just get the basic edition which is free.

Zone Alarm
www.zonealarm.com
Firewall. Again, just get the free basic firewall.

Spybot S&D
www.safer-networking.org
Antispyware.

NB - the protection of these three packages isn't as total as Norton 360 or other suites. There are other pieces of free software that fill the gaps the three listed programs don't cover and I'll list those at a later date.

I am not I because of this force or entity. I am "we"
