Free Virus & Spyware Removal Tools

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

Last weekend I finally had a chance to update my Toolbox of free software I use to remove and prevent viruses and other malware:

Free Virus & Spyware Removal Tools

I’m still using a lot of the same great free programs I’ve been using for a long time. Malwarebytes and SUPERAntiSpyware are still my top picks to remove viruses. AVG and AntiVir are my picks for real time virus protection and CCleaner is still my favorite for cleaning up Windows to keep your computer running fast.

There are also a couple new programs as well. I’m currently testing Panda Cloud Antivirus as another layer of protection to be used in combination with AVG or AntiVir. Panda Cloud is super light on resources and is best at keeping viruses off your computer.

If you’re already using AVG or AntiVir install Panda Cloud in addition and let me know what you think.

Thanks!

Great Laptop Deal – Acer Under $550

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

TigerDirect has a great deal on an Acer Aspire AS5740-5255 LX.PM902.131 Notebook PC – Intel Core i3-330M 2.13GHz, 4GB DDR3, 320GB HDD, DVDRW, 15.6″ Display, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, Blue.

If I were in the market for a laptop today that’s the one I’d buy. We have three Acer laptops in our house and I highly recommend them. These probably won’t last long at this price.
