Free Security Suites

Many security suite or internet security suite software company offer this kind on product, but usually pricey, so here some free & good software that you could combine by your self :

(choose only one for each criteria since multiple program wouldn’t do you any good, in fact it will conflict with each other and could probably crash your system)

1. Antivirus, For Antivirus program you could choose either :

· Avast Free Antivirus

· Avira AntiVir Personal - Free Antivirus

· AVG Free

Avast Free Antivirus come on my first choice, cause personally I found it the one that suites my needs the most. Second comes Avira, it’s still the antivirus that have the lightest impact on your pc performance, but the additional ask toolbar that bundled with the program just drive me out of it. but it’s still a good piece of software, and have the highest detection rate in many independent test to. Than there’s the most widely known AVG antivirus free for you to choose, got no comment on this one, cause I just simply like Avast or Avira better than so far.

2. Anti Malware /Anti spyware

· Malwarebytes’ Anti-malware (MBAM)

· SuperAntiSpyware (SAS)

I personally put MBAM as my first choice specially on removing infection on an already infected PC. And if you have the money, I found MBAM is very useful both preventing infection with their real time protection and website blocking features. While SAS is also a good choice, in protecting your PC, but in my experience with both software, MBAM come slightly on top, maybe event the far better one.

3. Firewall

· PC Tools Firewall Plus Free Edition

· Online Armor Free

· Outpost Security Suites Free

· Comodo Frewall

· Privatefirewall

· Zone Alarm Free

For most common user, PC Tools Firewall Plus Free Edition, Online Armor Free & Zone Alarm Free would probably the best choice, since it’s doesn’t pop up as much as the rest of the available choice. For more advance and experience user Outpost, comodo or Privatefirewall will be the better choice for you. For common user I suggest PC Tools Firewall Plus Free Edition as the first candidate.

Besides Security Program, don’t forget to updates your system for any critical updates & use a good browser for surfing the internet such as Mozila Firefox, Google Chrome, or Opera and make sure that you keep them up to date.

And the most Important thing is the keep improving your behavior and attitude, learn to develop a save browsing habit and do not use crack or patch, cause their no security program that can 100% protect you from harm, they way you use your computer and what you are doing to it also play a major role to keep your system healthy.
