I finally got my new system and downloaded the free AVG scanner but for some reason i get shitloads of commercials and adds on every page i visit on the internet. New pages opening etc. So i was hoping if anyone here can guide me too a good site/link/program to sort it and make sure my new pc is protected. preferably not 30 day trial version that you have to delete and reinstall etc since i'm no wizzard when it comes to those things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Avast for AV. Free but you need to register each year. Mallwarebytes Anti-mallware and Spybot Search and Destroy for mallware and similar things.

Amazing how just going to a site with no Java installed and still pick up shit. Most AV do nothing for you except slow your system. It needs to be checked with a program like malwarebytes. I got the pro so it scans real time. Has not slowed anything down. Catches lots of things.. you can have popups to show was it being blocked. 1 license cover 3 computer for $25. Now I feel save surfing for gay midget porn again. TedsofBeverlyHills and BigPapaDean 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you use Firefox (which is recommended), get script blockers such as 'noscript' and adblock+. Also Ghostery. hxtr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

If I do get a Bad virus that will more than likely diminish the performance of my PC even after getting rid of the bugger,It only takes an Hour to completely restore everything I have. I have a spare 120gig hard drive Loaded with windows and most of my games that I play.Doesn't take very long to Clone a Hard Drive.Every couple of months when I Blow the Dust out of my PC out I plug the 120 gig in and back up everything After making sure that I have no Viruses or Spyware. Viruses and Spyware are Very easy to detect if you Know what Processes are for what and how they should act.

For Win7 - Microsoft Security Essentials For Win8 - It's built in; just make sure it's on (which it is by default.) And yes - stay away from facebook, by all means. Evil empire. LOL Use ABP (Ad Blocker Plus) in Firefox and Chrome if you're worried about ad networks. And you should be. Don't UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE use Internet Explorer! One exception - use it to download either Firefox or Chrome. That is the extent of its value. Merlin007 and JohnnyDos 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

HELL NO.Not EVER again. SuperAntiSpyware was a Fake AV just 5 years ago that downloaded Dozens and Dozens of Infected toolbars and and Browser Hyjackers and all sorts of NASTY shit. I don't give a Flying fuck if they went legit or not that shit costed me personally Many hours of suffering and time to back up what little it did not infect and reinstall everything. Malwarebytes is very good and Adblock+ popup blocker for Firefox is all you need. Use Malwarebytes Game Mode feature while your gaming.AV is still active but does not actively scan incoming data.So it won't interrupt your gaming and PunkBuster won't bitch about it.
