Ok - I had ANOTHER laptop DIE a BLACK death - ( Not the dreaded Blue Screen- just NOTHING)

I got a low end $450 Lenovo lap top and the free included Virus program will end in a few days.

Is Avasti still the best free antivirus ?
What about a Malware program ?

Any other recomendations to add ?

Let me know
Cheers

Another great  day in the adventure of exploration and sight.

Microsoft Security Essentials (free) for AV. Better than and not bloated like Norton or McAfee.
AVG and Kasperky AV/Antimalware is highly rated as well and often on discount from Fry's

Malwarebytes or Spybot are good anti malware tools although i have heard others prefer others
