A question about computer programs!?

I am trying to keep my computer up to date and keep it free of adaware, viruses, spyware, etc. I have downloaded Ad-Aware SE Personal, AVG free edition, Advanced Windows Care V2 Personal, IObit SmartDefrag. Is there anything else that I should download to keep my computer safe? Please let me know. I prefer downloads that are free...I don't want to use things that are a free trial. Only downloads that are 100% FREE..thanks in advance.



A question about computer programs!?live update



CCleaner (www.ccleaner.com) does an excellent job cleaning up temporary internet files, cookies, temp files, recycle bin, and prefetch folder.



Hitman Pro (www.hitmanpro.com) will let you automatically install, update, and run in Safe Mode many of the best free and free-to-try antispyware programs all with one click, including SPybot Search %26 Destroy, Lavasoft Ad-Aware SE, SpywareBlaster, Ewido, and free trials of Webroot Spysweeper and PCTools SpywareDoctor. The free version of Spybot Search %26 Destroy allows autoupdates, but Hitman Pro helps in keeping the others up to date with one click.

Remember to do Windows update as that patches the windows operating system.
Naw, look like you are covered pretty good. But I would still Spybot Search and Destory and run that also. It is an adaware scanner. The reason is that not all adaware applications get all adware.
girl u worry to much i only have a trial version of kaspersky and i still dont use it



relax, my advise is just use the ad aware and uninstall the others they will slow down ur computer and internet connection seriously
I just use Adaware and windows firewall.



The only thing i could add to your list is turn on windows firewall (it comes with windows)



Then just remember to run adaware about every week, and let it update.



you should be good.
