My Virus Protection has expired. Anyone got a suggestion for a cheap company to get protection from.

Malwarebytes is a life saver. AVG is pretty good but it can miss a lot. I would keep AVG for anti-virus but also use Malwarebytes. Just run a scan once every weeek or two and it will keep everything else away.

I use AVG free and like it.
Also use Malwarebytes and like it.

I recommend www.regsofts.com for free registry repair.

Microsoft security essentials + malwarebytes will do it. AVG has become nagware and is not as good as it once was.
