    Hai dude, the best antivirus alongwith spam controller and Firewall i have come across till now is ZoneAlarm. Just find it on Zonelabs.com. Its quite satisfactory and far better than Norton.

    If you want a suite,
    then download ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite or McAfee Internet Security.
    If you want tools then,
    ZoneAlarm Pro – firewall
    McAfee VirusScan – anti-virus
    Spy Sweeper – anti-spyware

    most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser. you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus.

    i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser. as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.

    besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.

    download firefox for free, Just have a try:
