Sincere thanks !
Hi Ken - Wanted to say thanks for your time & help - I really appreciate your unselfish nature of helping others & me out of bad situations. Having a computer virus is a very stressful thing -especially when it is on a very important computer that holds vital information to your personal life or small one man business.
I have read alot of info on the links you listed and would like your personal opinion as I have a new machine I will be setting up and and transferring alot of my files to. At present I have Norton 2008 antivirus on my existing machine - it ties up alot of resources, is expensive and didn't prevent me from being infected - I'm not sure I like it. Based on what I've read - on my new machine I would like to install spybot (probably disable tea timer because I receive alot of popups from it and I'm not sure if things are good or bad), commodo firewall , spyware blaster and the antivirus program Avira.
In your opinion - is this a good combination or should I not install some of the above programs or install different ones that work better together? Also - this new machine will be critical for me and my small business - should I just use the free version of Avira or pay for the premium version ? (cost is not a big factor for something like this).
Again any advice is greatly appreciated - and thanks Again !!!
