Free Virus Scan - Kaspersky Lab
When people hear the word free, an alarm goes off inside their head. You are getting something for nothing, in most cases this can be a great thing, but when it comes to internet security this may cause harm rather than good. You wouldn’t always accept a free thing, you may accept free concert tickets, a free movie pass, or even a free car; but most people wouldn’t accept a free bank account, or a free lock for your house door from an unknown source. The same principal goes for free internet security. Not to worry though, this article will show you what to look for when searching for free internet security software for your computer.
There is no real secret behind it, many protection software packages offer the same thing, but how do you know which one will protect you, and which one won’t. It’s simple; you look at the ones that have won awards, and the ones that people recommend. If you are looking for free anti virus software, then AVG is the way to go. They have a professional version that includes more features but their free anti-virus is very good. If you are using cable internet, or fiber optics, anything that keeps you connected to the internet once your computer is on then you need a firewall. One name stands apart from the rest, and that is Zone Alarm. Just like AVG, ZoneAlarm has a professional version that has more features but you must buy the software in order to get the benefit; and just like AVG, their free internet security will do the trick.
So now that you have Anti-virus and firewall protection out of the way, then all that’s left is some anti spyware protection. There are a few very good free programs out there but the two that most people recommend are SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes. Both of these are free and both are fantastic, they have daily updates that are all free, and running them is a click away, very user friendly.
Once you have all of those 4 programs, you have your free internet security package ready. Your computer will be protected from all sorts of threats. Depending on the amount of files installed on your computer the AVG can take some time to scan the computer. It is recommended that you get in a habit of running all 3 programs (3 not 4 because ZoneAlarm is a firewall and that can be up at all times) once a month (but not all at once, that can cause problems). So at the end of every month run AVG, then SuperAntiSpyware, and finally Malwarebytes. This will ensure the best results, and it will keep your computer safe, clean and secure.
