Protecting Your Computer-Anti Virus Solutions

In todays computing world, we use our PC's for just about everything. For the most part, if you visit legitimate sites, do not open e-mail attachments that are from unknown senders you probably will not encounter the inconvenience of a computer virus. Sometimes even with the most careful browsing, one of the ugly pests could find their way to your computer. For this reason, running a good anti-virus on your machine is a must. There are a number of choices out there. Some are free while others charge an annual renewal fee. For the free version I recommend AVG anti-virus. If you want premium protection, my favorite choice is Total Defense. This solution uses very little system resources and picks up virtually all viruses in ther wild. See the links below.
