[Hidden-tech] Free anti-virus for PC?

[Andy Klapper]

I use Microsoft Security Essentials and have been very happy with it and it
is free.  I used to have Norton but it used to drag my system performance
into the ground.

I'm looking for a fast, simple way to protect my old PC while I update my
websites.

 

My situation:  I moved to a Mac over a year ago.  The software I use to
update my websites is on my PC and I don't want to buy a version for Mac.  I
just want to go in and make some changes...simply.  But, I want to protect
my PC while I do that.  

 

PC World recommends Avira and Avast as the top 2 free software programs.  

 

Does anyone know if downloading Avira or Avast would be sufficient and not
overtax my old PC which I think is 5 years old and can't handle a lot of
activity at once.  I also left my books on the PC using Quicken so I want
protection for that reason too. 

 

Thanks for your help,

 

Naaz
