PC Protection?

[Danny]

I recently revieved a message that I needed to update my bluyonder pc guard, I did and it doesn't let me use half as much features as there used to be now

So now I get pop ups every second and my pc isn't protected so I was wondering if anyone has a link to a good pc protection program that prevents pop ups and protects againts viruses? Any good one will do aslong as it's not a trial.

I know this isn't really a good discussion topic, but hell I don't want my pc to get infected.

I use these to 'protect' my computer:

ZoneAlarm Pro - Firewall + Spyware scanner, I think there is a free version.
AVG Free - Virus Protection/ its free and always updating...
Webroot Spysweeper - Good but if you want free I personally recommend a combo of "SpywareBlaster" and "Spybot Search and Destroy".
Lavasoft AdAware SE - For finding and removing Adware (free).

All of the above and be found at: download.com

And if you use Firefox (which I recommend you do if you don't) there are extensions that block ads, pop-ups, and certain scripts (codes).

- Adblock
- NoScript

System Mechanic Pro 6 made my PC worse. I wouldn't recommend it. -_-

Night, I wouldn't listen to your recommendations even if it was to keep me from drowning.

How did System Mechanic 6 Professional make your computer worse? I had over 200 viruses (to include spyware and adaware) on my computer at one given time and both Kaspersky AV and SM6 got rid of all of them.

The only bad thing about the program is that it can suck resources up faster than a motherfucker (that is if your computer is complete shit to begin with).

Go with System Mechanic 6 Professional

EDIT: That's if your computer can handle it in the first place...
