As someone who doesn’t like spending money on software unless I really have to, I’m always on the hunt for free programs that can help protect my computer. Ever since I started using the Internet I’ve had the most essential protection software, and I rarely paid any money for it. The top three are antivirus and antispyware programs and firewalls.
