Anti-virus questions from two different people this week have prompted this topic today. :-)
1) For PC users (non-Apple products), Avast Free remains the anti-virus program of choice. You do not need pay for this. NEVER click on any of the promotions from this company to say that you want to Upgrade. You don't need anything more than the free version. It may ask you to renew annually, but at that time all you need to do is Select the free version....nothing more. Avast is available at avast.com.
2) More is not better. Running two anti-virus programs does not give you twice the protection. It usually only causes conflicts within the computer and a possible slowdown. (Although I have read the Windows Defender, a component of Windows 10 can run in the background while Avast, but I''m not 100% convinced.
3) Mac users (devices are from Apple) do not need to run anti-virus protection. It is not needed and you may experience a slowdown in your computer if you install protection.
