If you have a Windows computer or running Virtual PC on Mac you should check that your computer is running at least a software firewall, when a router is not available, an antivirus and an antispyware with active subscriptions.

It is difficult if not impossible for a normal user to know what the market offers let alone choosing among the several products available.

Some of them are subscription-based services, e.g. antivirus and antispyware, where basically you pay for receiving the updates rather than for the program itself.  Others are aimed to maintain your computer to avoid clogging it with all sorts of unnecessary junk caused by the daily usage.

In this section we maintain a single choice for each area in the attempt to make life easier to our visitors. From time to time we review different products and choose the best in terms of price, ease of use and performances.
