List of free internet security suite

[sinu]

Can I get a list of free internet security suites?

 

[Tony Cole]

I don't think there is any, antivirus software yes, but not a full suite.

Most "free" AV suites disable the integrated firewall module. So, in reality, they aren't complete freeware options.

Comodo Internet Security on the other hand offers a complete package with all modules enabled.

Because of this fact it is the only free AV suite I have opted to use... and in all honesty it works great on my AMD W8.1 system.

Properly configured and used, it is solid, respectable protection.

It does, however, require time and effort to learn...

 

[Tony Cole]

Sorry, I forgot Comodo, too many night-shifts.

Qihoo Total Security but qihoo politics is weird

 

[Tony Cole]

Yes Qihoo is wierd, my mate is from Beijing and he doesn't trust Chinese software. Comodo is your best bet.

you also have zonealarm free antivirus and firewall , but it is not recommended because of its rather weak firewall and outdated kaspersky engine and signatures ( free version only updates signatures once every 24 hours )

How about list of free internet security(with firewall)?

Will it uses both proactive and reactive methods?

Is this compatible with windows 8.1?

last version updated 2011 , so it is not compatible with win 8.1 I guess.

never used it.

 

[starchild76]

your option could be bitdefender internet security , technically it's free , because of the huge amount of giveaways floating around the net : 180 day licenses or 365 day licenses , when it runs out , another giveaway is around the corner

never used it.

They say that it uses proactive method for detecting unknown malware

 

[starchild76]

go ahead and pick the one you like bitdefender has auto pilot mode , which means that you won't have to tweak it in order to get great performance and heavy protection

If you are using W8\8.1 64-bit system, then you will find that these AVs generally work the best:

• ESET Smart Security (paid)
• Emsisoft Internet Security (paid)
• Comodo Internet Security (freeware)

I have tried everything from Avira to Zemana... and the above gave me the least number of problems and protect my AMD W8.1 system at a high level.

However, you may find that your specific system is picky and only likes certain AVs... that is true of most any system. Plus, you might not personally like any of the above AVs and instead opt for something else.

Best AV is a combination of what works best on your specific system and for you personally.

Do not drive yourself crazy by trying to create the ultimate anti-NSA, impenetrable system fortress... it's a waste of time, effort and serves no other purpose than to frustrate and infuriate you.

Find a solid, respectable AV that works well on your system and for you... then stick with it.
