"AVG free 8.5" You can configure it to scan after you have finished using the machine on an evening and it scans and then turns it off for you. Very convenient. The free version is somewhat difficult to find on the AVG site. You will also need something like "Spybot search and destroy" for malware. If you are working behind a router in a home network you don't really need a firewall (turn it off in services), unless you want to monitor software that likes to "phone home". > > On Wed, May 6, 2009 at 6:04 AM, mike wilson <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > ---- Walter Hamler <[email protected]> wrote: > >> My old desktop PC went brain dead so I got a new PC tower unit only. > >> Fortunately I was able to put the SATA drive from the old one into the > >> new one and after transferring just a few files I reformatted it and > >> now have a extra internal drive. > >> I kept the old 17" crt monitor and therin lies my query.
