A few days ago, I wrote a post asking opinions about free antivirus.
I´d like to thank all my fellow bloggers who shared their experiences with me.
If any of you needs a free antivirus software, here´s what they recommended me:
~ Joy-Anne uses AVG, she said "it hasn't failed me yet".
~ Rebecca uses a free version of Grisoft AVG and also Comodo Forewall and Antivirus combination.
~ Monica uses Avast.
~ Shinade also mentioned AVG but she prefers Norton.
~ Mytheory recommended NOD32, he said "it's free and also a light-weight antivirus, the performance has score 3.5 out of 5"
Before reading all comments I had to find a solution. I couldn´t afford to risk my dearest notebook health. So, while I still had the antivirus running I looked for information on Entrecard blogs.
I visited Computer Aid Blog, the author recommends a combination of tools, for example:
~ The free version of Avira AntiVir and an antispyware solution such as Windows Defender.
You can read the whole post and all recommendations here: Computer Aid - Best Antivirus & Antispyware.
Once again, thank you all for sharing your experiences with me!
Sharing is the true spirit of blogging.
See you soon :)

I Need a New Anti Virus Software: Which is the Best Free Option?
I´ve been using a paid anti-virus software for some time but my subscription finishes today. I´m happy with the software I´ve been using because it has protected my notebook from many adware and other malicious attacks.
I really need protection for my machine because I do a lot of blog-hopping and visit new websites every day but once there´s free software available I think I should give it a try.
I already have internet connection and domain costs, I´d really like to cut expenses and I´m seriously thinking about doing this change.
The question is: Which is the best free anti-virus software available?
If you´re using free anti-virus software, would you please share your experience with me?

Problems with Adware, Torjans and Other Bugs
Hi everyone.
My PC is infected again!
I´ve been trying to fix this problem since yesterday but my antivirus is not effective against the bugs I caught while bloghopping. It identifies Adware but doesn´t remove it. I guess I need to find another software to remove it.
If you have suggestions, please leave a comment.
I´ll be offline trying to fix this problem.
Hope I can get back soon. Cheers.
Update, 23.oo pm:
I installed "Search & Destroy" software and it was able to exterminate over 50 bugs!
I´m not sure if this software cleaned everything because my Panda still identifies Adware. The Alexa toolbar is always identified as Adware. Well, at least things look normal, I can open both browsers like before and make my EC drops in normal speed.
I caught this bugs while bloghopping so some drops aren´t worthy. I already know some blogs that have bugs, sorry but I won´t visit them again even if they drop here every day. Today, I had enough trouble, lost many precious hours and I´m not sure if everything is fixed.
Well, back to work. See you.
