Wranglig interminably with virus protetions both free and fee; but is more protection than Microsoft Critical Updates
really needed by ordinary home-owner, non-professionals?
 
Very much so, Anti Virus background and One shot scanners, Anti Adware, Firewall and with the exception of a good firewall, not just one of each.
Even then somthing will get through now and again, if you have enough protection it might not be intact enough to cause any damage.

I had went from AOL dial up to DSL and it wasn't even 2 weeks before I lost my homepage and was getting a pop up per minute.I run the AVG free version, and I pay 20 dollars a year for a product called Stopzilla that keeps my homepage from being hijacked and has stopped all pop ups.
