What antivirus

[PattiChati]

My daughter Just got a new laptop. There was McAfee on there and I took it
off. I put AVG on there and it is preventing her computer from starting up.
It keeps locking up. I have windows vista. What is the best antivirus and
anti spyware for this?
Hope I am in the right forum.
Thanks.

This forum is for Windows XP Photos...

Anyway...for a free virus program...Avast
might be worth a look. If you are willing to
purchase the software...NOD32 might be
a good choice.

For spyware...Spybot and AdAware are
good, also Windows Defender should
already be installed on your Vista system.
