Renew or Change ?

One more point about MSE, it has not been know to cause problems. I do BSOD work and most of the others have caused BSOD, which you do not want. They also cause freezing and slow downs.

Its when you are happy playing your games or sending an email to a friend or whatever and then all of a sudden the computer stops and the screen turns blue

BSOD.
Major problem finding out the cause and stopping it.

Not just games.It can happen anytime, doing anything.

Hi :), On my PC I have just got (second hand) it has Vipre antivirus premium installed (Expiration Date 12/02/2011) so when the time comes should I renew and pay or go for a freeware alternative ? (I don't know a lot about Computers but now I have this one I intend finding out a lot more !) any advice appreciated :)

I agree with Rich and Kari's advice. However, Vipre Antivirus Premium is a very good internet security pack. As a long time Vipre user, I can assure you it wont slow down your computer and its detection capabilities are also very good. :)

SpeedFan is a temperature and fan RPM monitoring program :) You can also use it to adjust fan speeds.
