You must be a computer freak like me as you are spending time in reading technical reviews. Believe me I was also one of you who loved to be updated. Yes, I am talking about those early days when there wasn’t so much fun in internet and there were few sites which had reviews. In that time my favorite pass time is to search for software especially those free software which I can easily download into my computer. As we got computers in an early age so there wasn’t any idea how to maintain this huge gadget. Many a time I had slow speed and sometimes my work started closing automatically and the height came when once I was unable to open a single webpage and all that is visible was some language which was difficult to decipher. This was my first encounter with viruses. After it got into my computer so I realized how difficult it is to clean the computer and have a computer which is virus free. This was just the beginning, after this many of my friends told about viruses which almost ruined their computers. So that was more than enough a reason for me to search for a solution.
