You can try the new one from Microsoft or go to www.download.com and search for one

The top ranked one is from webroot but is only free to try.

There are some things that all pc owners should have and use.

1. Firewall
2. Anti Virus
3. Spyware Protection

There are free programs that you can use to protect your computer if you can't afford to buy protection. Also rememner to keep the programs updated because new viruses etc are born on the internet every day.

An unprotected pc is like sex without a condom. Eventually your going to get something nasty. :(

i would also recommend what homer recomends, he seems to know alot of good programs to have on your computer, for me ad-aware seems to solve 80 % of my problems,but there are others that work as good. Advice - you can never have enough malware protection on your computer, but you can have too many virus scanners(they seem to conflict with one another) .

if you have windows XP, you can just do a system restore to an earlier time.
