Posted by Cyb3rk Bade on 2nd July 2008
Going on the web without any antivirus software is for certain a suicide action for any user. We all try to protect our PC, but not all of us can really buy an antivirus software to protect our home PC too. Few years ago this was a real problem because was only few free solution for this and many times that “solutions” give just a fake protection. Now almost all serious antivirus software companies, offer powerful free solution for home users and this is a huge step ahead for business company who buy the software too, because their employers have also home computers and many times they carry files from home PC to office PC and back. Maybe antivirus software companies, just realize their job will be much easy if they will try to protect both sides (home and office) and because of that, they offer this free solutions with minimal but good protection for home users too. As home users, many of us don’t have same strong computers like we have at office, and in this case how an antivirus software use and keep busy our PC resources, become very important to avoid a significant slow down of our home computer.
We recommend you here a very good free solutions from AVG (for your home PC), with minimum spend of your PC resources, with free daily update automatic and what is really special on this software is “Safe Search” add. This means Safe Search protection provides you advices about search results. For example, when you search something on google, near every result of search you will have a star input there by AVG who show you health fo the site pages before you actually go on them. If you put mouse over that star you will also get few more info about the site and about potential danger if it is. A green star show you all is ok there and you can go to that link with no worries about. A red star, means that is a dangerous site with active threats and if you folow that link you may have problem when just open that page. It also have 2 level of risky for potential dangerous site. Remember, this “Safe Search” will not protect you from threats from that pages (only pay version do this), but will show you there is a threats, or a potential threats, before you actually click on that link. And in my opinion this is a great level of protection from a free antivirus software.
I use AVG free antivirus from few years already and I can say this antivirus is really do his jobs and protect my PC with great results. I recomend you this free solutions too to try it and if you like it and find it usefull, to keep it and use it.
