hi,
i've been using avira FREE for 3 years now and never had any issue/problems with viruses,malware,trojans because Avira Free protected me very very good!!!
So instead of buying an antivirus product like Norton, Eset/Nod32, Mcaffe etc you can use AVIRA FREE and it will give you more protection and all this without money, better protection just no cost :D
And the best is: it will NOT slow down your PC as other Antivirus

google avira free download and install and then you're protected better then any antivirus, they scored much better then others on antivirus test 2011.


Bye Good Luck all.

How do you know that? Maybe you were never attacked by a virus.

Avira is a good AV program, but so are some others that are free (e.g. Avast, MSE). I myself prefer NIS2011, but the same applies. Maybe I never got attacked.

I was attacked by virus, malware many times, and AVIRA FREE protected Blocked and Deleted the virus, while on my other pc i used Avast most viruses the Avast could NOT stop,

Avira is the best AV, it has been even proven from av-comparatives and many other antivirus test's !!!

I personally tie a very tight reef knot in my ethernet cable.

It's a proven fact that computer viruses and trojans cannot negotiate multiple sudden sharp bends.

This method has kept me safe since the days of connecting two empty tin cans together with a long piece of taut string.

As a backup only, I also have Nod32.

Just in case.

If you unplugged that ethernet cable, you would be even safer - LOL.

I have to say that is the most sensible security prevention I have heard recently.

Excellent! ;) :D

What funnel size do you use to get the NyQuil into the Ethernet adaptor? The antibiotics I would rub on the Ethernet cable - it gets inside via osmosis.
