What antivirus protection are you running on your computer? Do you know? Do you like it? How much did you pay for it? Are you required to pay for a subscription? What about yearly upgrades?

Perhaps you’re using McAfee for your computer’s antivirus protection. If so, my guess is that you’d pay a good chunk of money for someone to magically keep McAfee from bugging you day in and day out with its incessant reminders, questions, and warnings.

Well … you don’t have to pay money, actually. And regardless of what program you’re currently using, you don’t have to keep upgrading, ensuring your subscriptions are up-to-date, or wondering when your virus protection runs out. There IS an easier way.

Believe it or not, that easier way is called ClamWin (weird name, good program); it’s a free antivirus tool for PCs that be downloaded at http://tinyurl.com/n6pvl. ClamWin can protect Microsoft Outlook and your e-mails, run virus scans on demand, schedule scans in advance and regularly download the latest virus definitions to keep your computer safe. Plus, it’s a piece of cake to install. Sweet.
