problems. We are sharing some of those tools here should you choose

have had excellent results. Not only is this product free but the
virus updates are fast and free also.

Web Browser
Firefox
Just keeping up with the security updates for Internet
Explorer has become a full time job. Firefox is a fast, sleek and
simple browser that avoids the headaches associated with Internet
Explorer.
Email Client
Thunderbird
“Thunderbird” is our favorite tool in the war against Junk Email. With its uncluttered interface and fast engine, “Thunderbird” whips through the bundle of mail we receive every day. Through a simple training process, Thunderbird now catches over 90% of the spam that “Traveling Computer Doctor” used to have to wade through.
”Thunderbird” recently added an extension Calendar with which we have replaced Microsoft Outlook entirely.
Firewall
Zone Alarm
Zone Alarm is a great way to keep traffic
in and out of your computer safe. The free firewall has a low overhead
and allows for easy personalization.
Anti Spyware
Webroot Spyware Sweeper
We have recently moved to using Spy Sweeper to clean
machines. A recent
PC Magazine Editor's Choice Winner.
Great value @ $29.99. Click on the image below to purchase from AMAZON.com
Wirless Networking
Our Favorite Router
Simply the gold standard of routers. If Linksys made cars they would make Toyotas. Reliable, afforable and almost never have a problem. Combined with 24/7 toll free knowledgeable tech support and you have a world beater. We run the little blue boxes at home and in the office.
