I recommend this FREE Malware program to help you protect your computer:

It doesn't replace virus or spam software, but does a super job of trying to keep your PC running in top shape and it's easy to install.

I have this program, my son suggested it last summer. It does a thorough job. Takes almost 2 hours on my puter but that may be cause I have the slow connection, whatever it is called.
I recently discovered this free security suite after reading an online pc advice article. I downloaded it easily and it does not slow my computer down at all, as my last security suite did.
link did not work for me either.
Editor's Note So sorry about that, it should work now.
Free:
Spybot Search and Destroy
Avast! Anti-virus software
I use these two for virus' and malware and run my laptop problem free. Update on a regular basis and you should have no problems.
Another good tip is to use Firefox as a browser instead of Internet Explorer because Internet Explorer is a virus and malware magnet. Sad to say but true. Firefox is a much better built browser with more protection.
Firefox link www.mozilla.com/
If you want to make Firefox your default browser (which you should) go to the start menu using windows and click on default programs then click on set your default programs. Follow the directions to set firefox as your default browser.
