Free Antivirus Software

Here are some cost saving solutions when looking for antivirus software. These programs are generally easy to use and are effective against the most common viruses. It is recommended that you install at least one Malware application and only one Antivirus solution. There is no guaranteed protection against virus, trojans and malware and we recommend that you practice safe browsing habits.

Here are the most common applications for Windows:

Free Malware Protection

  • Malware Bytes Anti-Malware
  • Spybot Search and Destroy


    • Free Antivirus Software
  • Microsoft Security Essentials**
  • Avira Free antivirus
  • ClamWin Free Antivirus
  • AVG Free Anti-Virus

    • **Microsoft Security Essentials is the most preferred among the College of Law IT Staff. It is very effective and easy to use and the virus definitions are vast and thorough.
