He cannot work out why HP put a separate program on.
Or do you just have to make sure updates are done regularly?

if it's windows 10 then the built in anti virus is more than enough for the vast majority
in my experience
most of the free ones are not up to where to the builtin one is
nortons crucifies more computers each year than most of the viruses it claims to protect you against
trend is fine behind a decent firewall otherwise it's money wasted
mcafee is like avg, it is a trojan in itself
as for the plethora of others like bullguard etc
harvey norman and the magazines love you all......

you need to activate windows itself but it normally does it itself with 3 days
as for the av software, they get a kickback.

Mind field or mine field - could be either I guess
Been following this thread with interest, we've had AVG free for years on PCs and no problems (that I'm aware of).
AVG is now offering extended cover for about $45pa. - but it doesn't seem to be in favour in the posted responses to this thread.
Does anyone know if it is any good ?
How do I get the Windows free program ?
thanks

The windows program is standard win Win !0,,
I think it comes down to How many $$$$$ you lose if you get hacked,,
obviously the more $$ the more preparations you take,,
