Wheew. Managed to semi-fix my laptop (hopefully). Restored it to an earlier point, and installed everything possible to get rid of the ten or so Trojans (!!!) that were there. SpyBot Seach & Destroy, SpyBot Blaster, updated Java, Avira, , Comodo Firewall. Never ever using McAfee again. Piece of shit. Anything else you guys reckon I should install?

I don't use any anti-virus software.

They are redunant if you possess common sense.

Get rid of all of that crap and use Kaspersky or Nod32.

I do use common sense, and don't go onto dodgy websites and never open junk emails (well, I hope that's fairly common sense anyway). But ending up with as many Trojans as I did was just !!! Taking no chances now.

It needs to be free--permanently.

Use firefox with adblock, no script, flashblock. I don't use it but web of trust is good.

Don't download any unknown exes.

You only need adaware or something.

free avg is pretty good, but i hear kaspersky is good too. Not sure if its free, but i can possibly find download links for the full version, just like i can with the full version of avg

 

[jb_nc]

YOu also don't need a firewall. Your router + any windows version from XP has an inbuilt one that works fine.

They can be.. found for free if you're really that stingy, or use something like Avast!. I'd personally avoid AVG; it's naggy.

NOD32 i.e. ESET is what i'm using at the moment. Can return a few false positives, but doesn't hog many resources at all; very fast to run (being written mostly in assembly and all).

i download fucking mountains of porn and i have no viruses or anything. i pick up a trojan every now and then but avast, spybot and adaware keep me clean.

ran a scan the other day after a big splurge and it was fine
