Free anti-virus software is failing to keep computers protected from viruses, malware and spyware. Many of these programs do not include a firewall. A firewall is a program that blocks viruses from tunneling into your PC through the web browser. In addition, free anti-virus programs are the most easily hacked by virus writers. Free anti-virus programs fail to deliver updated anti-virus signatures that detect the most recent viruses.
Action to Take:
Only install a commercial anti-virus program that includes a firewall package. There is a dramatic difference between the level of protection provided by commercial anti-virus and free anti-virus software. Hackers have targeted free anti-virus programs because they are the easiest security tools to breach. Many of the paid anti-virus software manufacturers update their virus signatures several times a day.
