Confused about buying security software? Don't know whether to go for an integrated suite or separate firewall, antivirus, antispyware? Check out the new Free Security Software list at SpywareHammer.
OK, it's free so what's the catch?
Simply put, there isn't one. Many of the applications listed are designed to encourage the user to upgrade to the paid-for version. Having said that, everything in the list works well and often outperforms a commercial equivalent - I personally have the free versions of Antivir, Comodo and AVG (amongst others) on my systems. If I didn't trust them, I wouldn't use them.
One word of warning - some of these apps try to install the Ask! toolbar, Yahoo! toolbar or similar. (The ones concerned are highlighted in the list). Please remember to uncheck the option when asked during the installation process - you don't need them.
This list has been compiled by 1972vet - many thanks!
So, what are you waiting for? There's no excuse for running an unprotected system!
