Can someone please help?

I have installed AVG Antivirus Free Edition on my PC. Can you tell me if there is a Free Firewall program I can download also, that would be good protection, and go with AVG Free Edition? Also, is there any other kind of protection, I need, that you can recommend that I download to make my pc safer?

Open you windows file and check on the security status of your MS firewall. Set it to the desired protection level. That is free.

Go to CNET.com. In the lower left find the download area and open it. You'll find numerous pay and free programs for download. Add to your AVG another complimentary program called Antiviras AntiVir. It cleans what AVG can not!! It is free and like AVG can update daily and run at set times.

While your on the site consider adding Adaware, SpyBot, and CCleaner. you run them manually and they are easy removal tools for spyware and malware. Check with your internet provider for additional free protection via your toolbar. Comcast, for example, offers a wonderful Norton AntiSpware for my toolbar. Good Luck to you.

the most basic firewall is built into windows XP called "windows firewall". click start %26gt; control panel %26gt; then go to "windows firewall" %26gt; click on the bubble next to "On" %26gt; uncheck the "don't allow exceptions" check box if it is checked %26gt; then click on the "exceptions" tab %26gt; put a check next to all the programs you recognize and that you commonly use and uncheck all that you don't use or don't recognize %26gt; underneath the list of programs put a check near "display a notification when Windows Firewall blocks a program"
