Yeah, actually I was thinking after I posted a person could do it with
freeware. I actually purchased a firewall and antivirous software for the
PC I use for business (I'm a photographer) but I admit I only did this for
piece of mind. I have used freeware before that, and actually still use it
in addition to the pay stuff. I run nothin but freeware on my laptop and I
seem to be well protected. Man, you could download Spyblaster, Adaware,
Spybot Search and Destroy, and free Zone Alarm, and you'd be set. Just
toss em on a Jump Drive and off you go for nothin. You run spybot and show
someone that they have 500 plus little critters on their hard drive and
they think your a god! Get people setup with Mozilla or Firefox (again for
free)instead of Explorer and they'll be 1000 times more protected than they
were before. Stop by once every two months to update the programs... see
weet deal.
Just for the sake of Karm though if I was doing this on a lot of machines
I'd have people donate five bucks or so to the programers that ask for
donations. It still wouldn't cost you anything.
