Anti-Virus | File Viewers


Anti-Virus

  • Windows Updates
    Keep your computer up to date! Check to see if you need updates for Windows, your programs, your hardware or your devices.
  • Office Update
    Keep Microsoft Office secure by running Office updates.
  • FREE AVG Anti-Virus
    Free virus protection for private and non-commercial use.
  • FREE Spybot - Search & Destroy
    Detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging.
  • FREE Ad-Aware
    Provides you with advanced protection against spyware that secretly attaches and takes control of your computer, resulting in aggressive advertising pop-ups, sluggish computer activity, even identity theft through stolen bank details, passwords, and credit card account numbers.
  • Internet Storm Center
    The ISC was created in 2001 following the successful detection, analysis, and widespread warning of the Li0n worm. Today, the ISC provides a free analysis and warning service to thousands of Internet users and organizations, and is actively working with Internet Service Providers to fight back against the most malicious attackers.
  • CNET Security Center
    Information on the latest Internet virus and security threats.
