Essential Software for Your PC or Laptop

Another common question I get during consultation, what software should we have installed on our pc to keep us protected against malicious activity, and also any other essential programs. Here are a few of my favourite programs which I use constantly:

Avira AntiVir Personal
An excellent anti-virus which does not consume alot of computer resources. Make sure you are always protected, obtain a copy of Avira.

ZoneAlarm
A very good all-round firewall to keep out any malicious inbound connection.

Spybot Search & Destroy
Excellent at finding and eliminating spyware and adware from your computer.

Mozilla Firefox
The best browser on earth. Period. Please do yourself a favour do not use Internet Explorer ever again.

uTorrent
The best software for downloading using torrent technology.

k9 Web Protection
