[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 930270, member: 32260"] Protecting family members is a challenge. Several computers together can significantly increase the chances of infection. There are some very good free solutions for security-oriented people. But, If you are not a security-oriented person, then the best solution is buying the AV (family license) which can provide several protection levels and has a very low false positives rate on default settings. Such protection can be applied by Kaspersky Internet Security (and a few other AVs). You can start with very restrictive settings like these used by [USER=36043]@harlan4096[/USER]. If these settings will be annoying for a particular family member then you can decrease the protection level for him/her. Avoid using too much aggressive security setup, because people tend to ignore or temporarily deactivate security features if these features are too much annoying. Use the AV trial version first to see if there are no performance issues on the concrete computers. [/QUOTE]
