Some questions about anti viruses and anti spy?free antivirus

You need More than just AVG.

You also need Anti-spyware protection.

(Caution, you can only run one anti-virus program at a time, other wise I would recommend more than one so one could catch what the other might miss.)

You can run 2 anti-spyware. Nothing catches 100% because new Malware comes out DAILY and it takes a while for the programmers to write protection updates.

There is really not much difference except a virus can be very small and written to only cause harm.

A Trojan-virus is written to open and "call home" and download more Malware.

Spyware is a program written to follow your computer activity and can get your passwords and other personal information.

Keyloggers also do this by Watching the keyboard and keeping track of every keystroke, getting your credit card and other password and vital information. this file of data is sent to the "Bad guy" automatically by the keylogger program.

I hope you can see that no matter how secure your connection to your bank, or anyone, a program like a keylogger gets it's information DIRECTLY from your keyboard.

Adware is just spyware that's used to send you those annoying pop up advertisements. Get too many of those and your screen becomes almost useless with you spending ALL your time trying to close all the pop ups.
