    Can anyone recomend any good free antivirus security? I had Norton but its expired & they want €75 to renew! Tried Avira but the firewall kept blocking my access to the web

    I'll third Microsoft security essentials. I have been using it for ages and had no problems.

    edit: I forgot to mention http://www.virustotal.com you right-click files and you send them to this site and they scan them with like 100 diff virus scanners its really good and free :)
