    I used avg free deal-then I had some unrelated spyware problems and had to
    get a new computer...it came with escan-costs about $25 a year..get rid of
    worms -and stuff I have that is of no use... does not clog up
    computer..between me and my kids we are on the net 8 hrs a day.. I have
    renewed twice
    I am happy with escan-I have a spyware program also
    webroot-about $25 a year..
