Should I use two anti-virus programs?
Hi can you help me regarding internet security? I have McAfee security and also Microsoft Security Essentials? Do I need both and if not which one is best?
You don’t need two Internet security programs, one will be fine and having two or more security programs running on your system runs the risk of them interfering with each other.
On balance, we’d recommend the Microsoft program simply because it uses a lot less of your computer’s resources than McAfee’s Internet security and anti-virus programs. The computer security companies also have the habit of stinging you with expensive upgrades every year or so.
We have a list of the free internet security programs available on our Four Free Anti-Virus Programs post. All of these software packages are fine for home use.

For the last many hours I’ve been trying to eliminate spy ware from my desktop computer. I ‘m having a hard time getting it eradicated. I wonder should you have more suitable ideas (free software) on how to have it done.
