Hi, when you buy a new MB, quite often a free antivirus program is supplied.

I have not instaled these previously, so question is - are these full unlimited time programs with automatic updates?

And question 2 is - The free AVG antivirus program download - are these full unlimited time programs with automatic updates also?

Typically 1 year with automatic update, but I never installed them so it could be shorter now.

I prefer AVG Free. It is actually free for life unless the company goes out of business or decides to eliminate it and only offer the professional version which you need to purchase.

Spybot and spyblaster also work well together.

Avast also has a free antivirus program. You renew once a year.
