I’m currently running the Trial Version of Avast! Internet Security to see If I like how it handles. So currently I do have a firewall. However yes two scans a day is a bit much but more than worth it considering my unlucky past with computers. I used to use Norton but I was annoyed with the extreme CPU usage and it apparently not having a good offline scanner so I’m looking at Avast! something highly recommended by my techie friends.
