I have read good reviews of Bitdefender, but when I went to look at their site it seemed like they want to charge separately for firewall and for anti-spyware/adware. Is that normal? I was hoping it would all be in one wrapper.
At present my procedure is every two or three weeks to do the following:
1. Update and run CCleaner (free version).
2. Run Spybot S&D - update, immunize, then scan.
3. Run Malwarebytes (free version) - update and then scan.
4. Run Windows Update to make sure I have the latest important stuff just in case MS has sumthin useful.
5. Reboot.
For firewall I rely on my Comcast modem/router's built-in functionality, which maybe I shouldn't do, but it's nice using these free utilities bcuz of not having to buy it again every year.
Any thoughts would be appreciated because I may replace my old pc soon. It's a dual core 2.33 ghz with Win7 from 2009.
