free anti virus and spyware ?
I know this has prob been done thousands of times, but was wondering where and whats the best free to install ? These get updated regularly so updated software would be good

Anyways I got to update my brother computer and he needs antivirus and spyware, he getting lots of pop ups, lol.. mainly for porn so god only knows what he been lookin at !!!! but his missus is gettin a bit annoyed as the 5 year old kid cant get on the cbeebies web site now because of the porn pop ups.

cheers

Lavasoft Ad Aware (free version)

Spybot Search and Destroy

Formerly "Ewido Security Suite" now part of AVG...

Ewido was always my fave for this but it's not free. You used to be able do download a trial version to get you out the shit, but i dunno if they are still doing that these days.

Im paying £18 a year for my AVG subscription. It stops most but not all, even with daily updates. I also run random Ad-Aware scans which seems to pick up the things AVG doesnt. Strange that 'cos Ad-Aware is free..
ad aware software downloads and reviews at Download.com
