No one likes to pay for computer software, but there are some things most of us can't - or shouldn't -  do without. This is a short list of FREE programs we have no hesitation in recommending.   

 

REMEMBER,  these are just the programs we have tried.  There are many more out there which are (at least) as good as these.... but if you want to start somewhere......

 

If you are not certain, always check with a professional (see our local businesses page!!).   Microsoft also has a lot of useful information (and free security programs) that are worth checking out at here (select "Security")
