It was already a decent paid anti virus option. Pretty cheap with that discount..

I dont get why anyone pays for anti virus anymore

The free ones are perfectly acceptable

Free antivirus is the way forward. I will never pay for an antivirus package again, personally.

I use Avast, its free, updated daily and it you can upgrade by paying if you want it to do more. The only downside is will remind you everyday if you want to upgrade.

i agree,

have been using microsoft antivirus on 3 computers with over a year and it does the job perfectly, i download a lot and it still does the job fine.

Spyware and malware are more of a threat these days anyway, antivirus packages dont have much to do. To that end, this is the best spyware removal tool:

Get a Mac...no need for antivirus

You know, you're right. I really should throw away my perfectly working computer and spend twice as much for a mac instead of installing one of the many freely available antivirus programs. You have shown me the light, thank you.

Someone's having a bad day.

I'm having a good day actually. Just in the last 3 threads I looked at, the last posts were unhelpful and pointless. It gets to me.

LOL (more of a snigger actually but yeah out loud)

It used to be the case that the only reason you'd have AV on a Mac was so you wouldn't forward any infected windows files you received.

Anyway here is a freebie from Sophos for Mac users

It's kinda hard to do that when they infect stuff like google ads.

adblock plus & noscript are your friends
