Time to buy new protection. Running NAV 2003, which I upgraded online to 2004. Now here it is, 2006.
Looking for thoughts on what to buy for home PC (IBM Thinkpad/Win98), used for email, shopping, research, general time-wasting.
Any thoughts on what to buy? Where to buy cheapest??

I am a big fan of AVG Free...and yes its free

Other great AV software is kapersky, nod32, but am not 100% sure they will work on 98 or not.

Hi
DebMarieGreeneIf you are going to buy ,I recommend Panda AV
If you want free I recommend Avast as many folk in this forum use it. and there are a few other good choices here in this Bleepingcomputer article: See the 3rd pinned item Virus and Malware Resources.
There is also a
Tutorial to remoe Norton: see first pinned.

My advice is not necessarily right though

AV software is very much a personal preference
