 | Comodo Internet Security Suite This is the best program we've found available to date that combines a complete solution for antivirus and firewall. The program is 100% free though if it does detect a threat it will solicit you to contact a professional and pay the company to help remove it. This is not necessary though because the program will quarantine and remove any threat automatically by itself. - Antivirus - Firewall - Schedual Scans - Set internet zones - Add custom rules - Real time protection monitoring - Optional secure DNS The one downside is it comes with some programs that you may wish to uninstall, like it's own browser and a few additional security programs. |
