Tool tip: Anti Virus
However, as this is a Windows pc (sigh), I need to put some anti virus software in there. There are several free ones out there, but my definitive favorite, and one that seems to go under the radar very often is Active Virus Shield.
It seems to work well, not to slow down my computer (at least not noticeable) and has a nice UI (which is more than you can say about AVG).
So if you're looking for free anti virus software - give it a try.
