Anti virus and malware threats are all too common now and it is important to make sure you have appropriate software solutions to keep your system protected.

Nash Computer Services recommends, and installs ESET anti-virus software. Eset is very reliable and easy to use software that scores highly in the “Virus Bulletin VB100″ awards. Eset also supports centralised management and deployment of its software through the use of its management console. Performance of the machines it is installed on remains high due to the lightweight and efficient client software.

If you want to scan for or remove Malware/Spyware from your system we recommend using Malwarebytes.org. There are both paid and free versions of this software available and we have found it to be very effective.

For small business and home users, a good anti virus and malware protection service that can be accessed and used for free by Genuine Microsoft Software users is Microsoft Security Essentials.

Always make sure your anti virus and malware software definitions are up to date to ensure maximum protection for your machine.
