I use Bitdefender and Malware Bytes. They work well together. Bitdefender is not free, but my data are worth saving, so I'm happy to pay for a good antivirus program. I believe there is a free version of Malware Bytes.

AVG is a good free anti-virus. They have a free basic and a paid upgrade. www.avg.com/us-en/homepage I've had no problems using it on my home computers and phones. |

I use AVAST. Never had any issues with my computers in the 15 or so years I've used it.

"I believe there is a free version of Malware Bytes." There is a free version but if it was me I'd pay for the better version. |

Love this one.  ![]() It's not free, but it's not expensive. |

Thanks all. I'll check them all out, even the paid ones.
