Maintaining a PC Without Anti-Virus Application

Hi Margene

Not having an anti-virus is risky business if you have access to the Internet. You will be infected in no time and your important data could become lost. A free anti-virus is better than nothing, in fact far much better if the anti virus is a part of one of the leading security product in the market.

It is not only safe to download and install free antivirus but it is very feasible. There are excellent free anti-virus for home users that is well capable of preventing viruses.

I can give you two examples, Avast and AVG. These are the two top free anti virus in the market today. Both uses the same antivirus engine that is there in the paid version, so it is just as effective as the paid version. 

So I advise you to download and install any one.

Hi Margene,

Others says you can maintain  your computer pc and free from viruses without downloading a software for Antivirus. 

It's for you to choose and try what they do. How?

• Minimally access a web page in which it permits you to download some files, and executes scripts.
• Disable the plug ins which you actually do not use.
• Avoid using a software that downloads unsecure files for free.
• Disable the auto run when using a USB and use a WinRAR and have it activated to delete the virus manually.
• You can also use a firewall to prevent the other users from accessing your pc.
• Do not just permit anyone because if anybody has the access to your pc you they will surely find viruses on their way to accessing an unsecure sites.
• Make sure you always have a back up copy of your folder importantly after installing your Operating System, so if anything happens to your pc you can  always return whatever the changes you have done anytime without formatting it.
• Remember not to permit access to the software you are installing unless you manually update it.

    Hope this might help you.

Thanks.

Yes, it is very safe to download and use the free anti-virus application online. But always bear in mind that some of free antivirus has limited to kill viruses and worms not unlike if you are going to use the license one. There so many inexpensive antiviruses found online.  

There are many viruses created everyday so therefore our antivirus also should be updated always for us to encounter any new viruses attacked on our desktop.

But for the meantime that we don’t have enough money to buy a license antivirus just we can use the temporary one and moving forward of any changes.
