    Can anybody please recommend a good free anti-virus program out there?
    Dont say AVG, I just tried to disable Residental Shield and it would not budge and then it "self deleted" and cant even delete AVG itself now as files are corrupt..?

    + rep to all suggestions.

    Well, you can get a free 30 Day trial of Nod32 i believe. Which is THE best AV out there.

    No trials, I hate them.

    Also, is AD-AWARE worth downloading?

    Ad-Aware isn't an anti-virus, but yes it's a very useful tool. Although you may have some trouble getting it to run on vista

    Ad-Aware is Anti-Spyware, it wont block viruses etc like an Anti-virus but it sure as hell will remove them.

    The antivirus i reccommend is Avira, it's free, no trial etc always free and is a really good
    av. You can download it here

    I decided to go with a Norton trial until I find something better..
    Also, I do know AD-AWARE is Anti Spyware, just wondered if it's any good.
    Thanks for any help..
