What Is The Best Free Anti Virus I Can Get?
My son just moved in with me and he is getting hooked up to the internet tomorrow (Friday). He will need a anti virus right away. Do you know where on the net he can download a free anti virus?. Something that is good and works correctly.
Please send a link if possible.
Thank you so much for your help.

If you want a free anti-virus I recommend in this order (install only one):
1. AVG Free
a. A simple interface (easier to use than Avast! and Avira)
b. Can detect about 82.82% of viruses
Cons: low virus detection
2. Avast!
a. Real-time protection
b. It has an option to delete a virus once found
c. Can detect about 87.46% of viruses.
Cons: Too many icons and confusing user interface
3. Avira AntiVir
a. It can detect malware better than Avast and AVG
b. It’s cute umbrella icon
c. Can detect about 94.26% of viruses
Cons: A very sluggish update

If your internet provider doesn’t offer you these services,try either http://www.pctools.com or http://www.microsoft.com. Both offer free downloads & trial offers. I’ve used software from both. Hope this helped.

there is no best free antiviruses.
even free version won’t give complete protection against viruses.
best Antivirus kits: NOD32, AVG, AVAST, Bit defender.
