How to get ultimate protection for your PC without spending a penny

I’ve been testing out whole lot of antivirus software out there. i had subscription for kaspersky internet security 2010 which i’ve been using since forever because awhile ago when kaspersky was still in version 8 i really loved it and i thought i dont need anything else. but again as my hobby, from time to time i tested out other protection suites that came out or had major updates.

1 ESET smart security ($69.99)

2 Kaspersky internet security ($79.99)

3 Avira premium security suites ($53.95)

If u look at it $80/year on average is not a whole lot of money to spend to get ultimate peace of mind while browsing the Internet. Over the past i have bought all three and tested it out and even have bought others like bitdefender, norton, Mcafee etc etc which i dont even want to talk about. then recently i’ve been testing out free antiviruses and other addons trying to find out the best way to protect my PC that hands down beats all those expensive softwares. I tried numerous of them for past few months. now i think i finally came to a conclusion. Yes !!! i finally found a way to create your own security suite that will give you ultimate protection and you dont have to drop a penny. Every software i am about to recommend can be found for free on the Internet.

So How do i get ultimate protection for free ?

You will need Three different software, i will get into it on detail later on but here are the list of softwares:

1 Avast Antivirus

2 Comodo personal Firewall

3 Spyware terminator

setting it up for the first time will be little hard especially with comodo but after that everything will be a breeze, because everything is light on system and doesn’t burden your process. let me go through it on detail one by one

1 Avast antivirus

Avast is unbelievably amazing anti virus software for being free. It has real time scanning. Boot time scanning is a cool feature. when u schedule a boot time scan it restarts the computer and runs only avast on the system and the scans is detailed and fast because nothing else will be running on the background at the moment. I have never had a false positives and it have detected almost every threat on real time. I have had numerous trojans removed by avast that Kaspersky hasn’t been able to detect.

if you would like more info on Avast or reviews on what people are saying head over here to cnet.com.

2 Comodo personal Firewall

Well as we all know it is an inconvenient truth that windows firewall sucks (excuse me for using that word but i had none other on my mind). and No antivirus will be complete without a strong Firewall. Kaspersky had a real good firewall and others like ZoneAlarm are not that bad for being free But Comodo’s speed and performance blows everything to dust. Comodo Internet Security, Comodo’s award-winning free security suite, offers prevention-based, Default Deny Protection (DDP) technology to prevent malware in your PC. Conventional security suites ignore prevention, focusing only on the eventual detection of viruses. Basically, this means that it will allow all applications to access your PC resources by default as long as the application is not on your security software’s blacklist of already known malware. Comodo Internet Security includes an extensive white-list of safe executables called the ‘Comodo Safe-List Database’. This database checks the integrity of every file and application asking for access to your PC. Comodo Internet Security will alert you of potentially damaging applications before they are installed. This is a ground-breaking method of protecting your PC. Traditionally firewalls only detect harmful applications from a blacklist of known malware – often-missing new forms of malware that are being created and launched daily. Comodo Internet Security is continually updated and currently almost 3,000,000 applications are in Comodo Safe list, representing virtually one of the largest safe lists within the security industry. Put simply, the good stuff gets in, and the bad stuff gets nowhere near your PC’s insides. Our latest version includes both DNS protection, to make sure the URLs you visit are safe, and the option oh installing the HopSurf toolbar, a new and innovative way to surf the Web. Comodo Internet Security is now available in 15 different languages, and comes included with a free 30 day trial of LivePCSupport. Best of all, it’s free for life.

it was real easy to install and everything.After the first reboot it askes you bunch of question and you will have to decide if you want to allow network access or not. not a big deal,if you know what the softwares are. if you dont know then just block it.simple.

overall best firewall in the market. it asks you almost everything, everytime something is trying to access the network or your computer. Its up to you to allow or block it. but its so easy “Even a Caveman can do it”.

This spyware scanner and removal tool does the job, but enabling some functions may cause slight slowdowns and it’s not ready for Vista.

Spyware Terminator’s crisp, clean interface uses simple buttons and tabs to operate and set options.
