Security On New Computer

by moranacus - 2/21/12 6:35 PM

I planning on getting a new computer really soon and as far as the security I will keep SuperAntispyware, Avast (Free Version) and Malwarebytes.
I found out that I can use my same license for SuperAntispyware and Malwarebytes on my new computer so I don't have to pay for them again.
Anyone have any views on TrojanHunter????
I have this on my present computer but don't plan to
purchase a license for my new computer (have to pay each year) because I really don't see this program doing anything. Avast and Malwarebytes have been AWESOME in their warnings for problems.

with what you already have on there, it is probably not needed because you already have the paid versions of the others..

You already have a paided version of SuperAntispyware, and Avast thats enough ,too much of Anti-virus installation may slow down your PC
