Hey thanks LaBaMan =D i appricate the praise, Nod32 is a qaulity program, its paid for though, i think people can have just as secure a pc using free ware.

And yep, this site is great, out of all the forums i'm on i like this one best :)

however, sometimes it didnt remove troyans
Well, no AV is perfect, thats why i use a number of online scans etc along with my AVG.

rav009 - that's a great list, thanks a lot! wow that must have taken a ton of time to put together!
I do have a question, do you think "error killer" is worth the money (for those of us that need to keep the # of steps short and easy!) or do you feel one of the free reg cleaners you've already posted is the same or better?
Again - thank you for that list! Have a great day everyone ...

-Anti Virus
I have used AVG and Avast, and find the Avast user inter phase is much better, but what AVG lacks on user friendliness it will make up for in virus detection over Avast from my experience, but I feel Avast is still sufficient especially with it's boot time scan function.

-Anti Spy ware
Ewido is quite good as it got almost all of SpyFalcon and Spyware Quake off my system, but at the end of the day it took HijackThis in order to get completely rid of it.

For typical protection I prefer Spybot Search and Destroy, but use Ad Ware SE and MS antispyware for back ups.

-Firewalls
I used McAfee Express Firewall that comes with AOL but switched to ZoneAlarm when we canceled AOL. ZoneAlarm has offered far superior protection against incoming requests then McAfee Express did.

-Browsers
FireFox is THE BEST. IE just plain sucks, and Avant is very good sub for IE as it incorporates the best of both worlds on a limited basis. Avast has a limited pop up blocker, therefore I switched to FireFox because of the better pop up blocker and some handy extensions.

-Reg Optimizers and Etc
I stumbled on Free Ram XP Pro a few months back, and love it. No more constant booting to restore system performance :)


Just wanted to add my 2 cents, but thanks for the list. There are a few things i may check out anyways. :)

@gilyvon1,

"does anyone know how to deinstall spyware search and destroysince it doesn't come with the file to do so????"

Do you mean uninstall Spybot S&D?

@jaimittal,

Your welcome, glad it was of some use, watch out for the update! :)

I am in the processs of doing so actually my friend, here's a little sneak peak:

Windows Freeware Security Essentials!!!

Had to update this thing sooner or later, so here I go, this time around more pics and info, enjoy.

Basically, the whole point of this guide is to show you its very possible to successfully run your computer using freeware security apps, you need security apps no matter what your level of experience is, they are essential, if you follow this guide carefully enough the result will be a nicely secured computer all done for FREE.

Just because you paid for it doesn?t mean its better than a freeware app, I'm sure you have all heard the storys, "I uninstalled Norton Anti Virus and installed AVG Free, it found 4 Trojans that Norton didn?t even know existed!" etc.

Symantec's Norton products are an example of this, they are really popular these days, probably because they are attractive, simply to use and effective to a certain extent, however they still have ALOT of improvements to make before I ever use them again, plain and simple resource hog if you ask me, waste of space inferior protection....however that?s just my opinion :)

My new setup came preloaded with Norton Internet Security 2006, it was gone within an hour of my comps first run as I am never going down that road again.

Its important that you know a little before you follow this guide, I have made an assumption about you if you are reading this, I have assumed you can open a browser and read English, that?s it. 

You should read these:
Computer Virus

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Virus

Spyware

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spyware

Ad ware

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adware

Malware In General

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malware

Read them?, right, so lets get started shall we?, first of all, lets install an AV (anti virus)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Web definition of Anti Virus

Аntivirus software consists of computer programs that attempt to identify, thwart and eliminate computer viruses and other malicious software (malware).

Аntivirus software typically uses two different techniques to accomplish this:
Examining (scanning) files to look for known viruses matching definitions in a virus dictionary
Identifying suspicious behaviour from any computer program which might indicate infection. Such analysis may include data captures, port monitoring and other methods.

Most commercial antivirus software uses both of these approaches, with an emphasis on the virus dictionary approach.


From:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti_virus

It is highly recommended you keep an AV, if you don't I will promise you will be kicking yourself and so will your kids when they find out they can't log onto Msn Messenger as you've taken the careless approach and not installed an AV program, now you realise you are prone to all the malware on the web and this will cost you time and money, please have some sense and try not to let your pc get into a horrible state like this and to the smart thing, install an anti virus program!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anti Virus Software For Windows

REMEMBER TO ONLY HAVE ONE OF THEESE INSTALLED AS THEY WILL CONFLICT AND CREATE FALSE POSSTIVE RESULTS

AVG FREE
(Writers Choice)


GRISOFT once again received the VB100% Award by independent malware advisor, Virus Bulletin, in June 2006. AVG Anti-Virus proved itself by detecting all In the Wild viruses, while generating no false positives, during both on-demand and on-access scanning in Virus Bulletin's comparative tests.

Download AVG FREE-----> http://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/tpl/v5

AVG Free is an excellent anti virus app that you can have faith in, protection you can trust to keep you out of sticky situations, this is my pick and I highly recommend its use, I've used it for years and on many a pc without a single worry and it has proved to be effective in doing what it does, give it a try today for nothing, can't hurt can it? :)


Thats just the start, you'll love it I promise, the first one was just a quick one I did, this ones a little more extensive.

Anyone familiar here with the HOSTS file? It's a file that sits on your Windows box in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
Basically, if you know how to add entries it will -block- you from visiting those sites (and those sites from visiting you).
Any cookies or HTTP traffic sent to your computer will be blocked out. This isn't a hack, it's a rarely documented feature of Windoze. Learn about it here- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HOSTS

Hi Rav, just wanted to thank you for your guide and I love the new look of the update, very professional. My Norton Internet Security Suite subscription finaly ran out yesterday so I zapped it all with the norton removal tool and now have AVG and Zone Alarm installed and updated and running sweetly. Now the resource hogger that was Norton is history I can reclaim some of my speed and enjoy safer web use. Thanks again mate, keep up the good work.
