I am looking for a list of free antivirus and firewall software. I am
trying to create a list for a project to get people who don't have the
money for the high end AV software to still get protection. Anyone
wanna help little-ole-me?

Yes indeed, google is a powerful tool, however Google is indiscriminate
as to what it offers in that search. You can find porn sites, Free AV
scanners that actually load spyware and tell you to upgrade so it can
remove it, and so on. Therefore I come to a place where most of the
users can give me informed options rather than a bunch of gobbly gook.

David (or others),

I downloaded the FREE ZoneAlarm (Firewall Protection) from that page,
zlsSetup_60_667_000.exe. But after I installed it, it looks like a
commercial version and I can only try for 15 days. It somehow becomes
"ZoneAlarm Pro" (the title of the window when double click the icon).
What did I do wrong to miss the non-Pro freeware version? Thanks.

BTW, I'm very happy with it. I run Windows "Internet Connection
Firewall" on XP SP1 (uninstalled SP2 due to performance problems). ZA
vsmon doesn't use much CPU. (But I/O read bytes and write bytes per
unit time are among the top of all processes. 33kb/sec for reads as I
speak, still fairly low actually.)
