I need some, restored my laptop to factory settings and could really do with a good antivirus for free. Thanks!

AVG or the standard windows one. Those are the only ones I know of, sorry. Can't help you much here.

That's a stupid combo.

@OP

MSE + Malwarebytes

or

Avast! free + Malwarebytes

Thanks meldo. Which would you recommend more? MSE or Avast!?


I like MSE because I previously used it, but maybe Avast is best. What do you think?

Apparently MSE is ever-so-slightly better than Avast, but overall it's preference.

Use MSE/Avast for active protection and Malwarebytes for scans.

So MSE, Avast and Malwarebytes. Ok, one more thing. Are all of these trial versions or are they permanent. Most free antiviruses are 30/60 day trials.

Because they are both used for the same thing.

Also AVG isn't as good as it used to be.

All are permanent. Also, only get one. Avast or MSE. They may conflict with each other.

MSE comes standard with most computers...it did with mine anyway.
Also Malwarebytes is free, with a paid version for more features (you dont need them anyway)

I agree. AVG somewhat let me down but it's clearing systems are really efficient. I've disabled AVG scanning for viruses, I use MSE for that. AVG cleans my system of junk really well.

Perhaps I should have said that.

I will use MSE and Malwarebytes.


I got AVG immediately just to be safe for a while, but now that I am getting MSE, will I delete it?
