Hi there guys... I have 2 hard drives, I'm in the net so I know my PC can never be safe, I want to know how can I secure my 2nd drive from spy and viruses, so that if ever a virus gets in they only infect my primary drive... is there any free software for this, I want to prevent virus from spreading in my PC... :)

Any of the free antivirus products protect all the physical and logical drives on your computer. I use Grisoft AVG but I hear Avast it good as well.

But I already using AVG but the spyware is still there... and my PC can't handle Avast, it make my PC slow, I can't use my PC when I use avast...

Most antivirus products are not designed to find spyware as well. Have you tried installing and running Spybot? It will scan all your internal drives. Make sure it has the latest updates.

From here (https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/computer-security/25125.html) a direct C&P to a similar question


On the whole Anti Virus software does a bad job of removing spyware.

(I'm going to assume that you are using XP even tho' you didn't mention.
Most of these steps will work with any Operating System)

Here's some simple steps for you to take.
1/ Remove temp files and other rubbish form your system, either with inbuilt Disc Clean up or CCleaner (www.ccleaner.com).
(Disc clean up; open my computer > right click your C: drive > properties > Disc clean up button on general tab. Let it run and select everything)
2/ To make sure everything is running fine also run both anti virus and anti spyware apps (make sure that they are updated first ;)) (AVG (http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1) is good and free AV)
(A couple of good Spyware removal tools are Spybot (http://www.safer-networking.org/) and Adaware (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/))

ALso an on line virus and spyware scanner is Trend Housecall (http://housecall.trendmicro.com/)

Hope all this lot helps;)
