I have Norton Anti Virus 2002 and I 've been renewing my subscription each year but they increased their price from $15 to $25.

Norton Anti Virus 2005 is only $30.

Is there a good free anti virus program?

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I have personally used AVG ( www.grisoft.com ) for 3 years. It's free and you get definition updates almost on a daily basis or at least when a new threat is discovered.

AVG has intercepted every nasty that has been thrown at my PC.

Here are some good free programs that you can use, most or all of them are available at http://www.download.com/:

Spybot: Search and Destroy

AVG AntiVirus: Free Edition

Microsoft Antispyware Beta

IMsecure (If you use Instant Messaging program(s))

Lavasoft Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition


...you can find more AntiVirus, AntiSpyware, etc., software at http://www.download.com/, but I would recommend using the ones that I've listed. :-)
