Hi I bought a computer about twelve months ago from a private seller who personally built it. At the time I did not know anything about computers and to this day still don't know much. Within the first four months I had to take it to a computer shop to have it sorted out due to viruses. Recently a friend reinstalled windows 98 for me due to other problems I was getting. The reason i'm posting this is that i'm looking for some advice with regards to anti virus software and other software that will help me use my computer more succesfully. I've looked on ebay and i'm interested in buying a cd someone is selling that repairs any problems you may have he's selling it for 9.99. Could anyone tell me if this cd is actually worth it. I've been using avg and adaware, they have been free to install so my way of thinking is that they can't be very good. Could anyone also tell me wether these free software packages actualy work just as good as the ones you pay for. I'm totally confused because some people are telling me they do.
Thanks for your time.
