spyware doctor and NOD32

but its not like they're ever running

you dont really need virus/spyware protection unless you just suck and fail at life.

I have, Weebrook Spy Sweeper, Norton Antivirus and Firefox but im not sure if Firefox is for viruses.

Ad Aware and Pest Patrol.
It's not good for your computer to run multiple anti virus programs on your computer - it just makes it more screwed up.

Spy Sweeper and AdAware. Not really for viruses, though.

I use AVG (free version) and Ad Aware (also free version). Both seem to work really well. I've used them for years and have never had a problem. And they're free! =)

i think mine`s called "avast!"?

I use AVG for virus protection and I used to use Ad-aware for spybot detection but it stopped working. So now I'm using Spybot search and destroy.

lol ? virus protector?

why would you wanna protect a virus?

^jajaja.

Lol I don't use virus protection. I find it easier to make sure you know what you're downloading, and do not go download masses of porn that could very easily have viruses linked to them. Plus viruses are updated so often that it's hard for the protection to keep up with all of them.

McAfee Suite - Best ever.

If you safely surf the web (a.k.a. you don't watch porn or download f**king zwinkies and shit). You shouldn't even need antivirus if you keep windows up to date, but I do that it just in case.

AVG Free Edition works wonders, and so does Windows Defender. I haven't had a virus in over 3 years, but then again... I don't make a habit out of watching dirty movies and downloading "nifty" bull shit.

I use to have Avast!
It use to scare the crap out of me sometimes because if my speakers were loud that little man would come on and say warning virus has been found!

I used to have Norton, but i have to buy the full version for the whole thing. ugh.

I downloaded Prevx. it's really simple to use for me. plus it doesn't keep asking me to update ever 5 seconds or to buy the premium version (i downloaded the free trial even though it isn't one since it didn't expire yet even though it has been 3 months) I use Spybot Search and Destroy for spyware, adware, and such.
