ThreatFire is a behavior blocker.
a-Squared is an anti-spyware.
Neither is an anti-virus.

Give up Annie! An illegal version can be traced now by Norton and they are shutting them all down now, so it will be totally useless to you and a waste of time you trying to get it.
For good, free and recommended security programs go here http://www.webuser.co.uk/forums/showflat...
From that list, may I recommend you select AVG for anti virus, Zone Alarm for firewall, AVG Anti Spyware and Spyware Blaster.
No free lunch in business.
you could try www.download.com
they have a lot of free software
Don't Do it, your system will create new problems buy it and load it then use it OK.... because they show all tricks to attack your PC and threaten you to buy the product immediately
i think you cant get a genuine copy for free, but you can get some limited days trial,
My suggestion use AVG it is free, and less resource hungry and comparatively silent than Norton..
Before running after these *branded* anti-virus programs, may I bring the following link to your notice
The Anti-Virus or Anti-Malware test file
(read the complete text, it contains important information)
Version of 7 September 2006
If you are active in the anti-virus research field, then you will regularly receive requests for virus samples. Some requests are easy to deal with: they come from fellow-researchers whom you know well, and whom you trust. Using strong encryption, you can send them what they have asked for by almost any medium (including across the Internet) without any real risk.
Other requests come from people you have never heard from before. There are relatively few laws (though some countries do have them) preventing the secure exchange of viruses between consenting individuals, though it is clearly irresponsible for you simply to make viruses available to anyone who asks. Your best response to a request from an unknown person is simply to decline politely.
A third set of requests come from exactly the people you might think would be least likely to want viruses ''users of anti-virus software''.
They want some way of checking that they have deployed their software correctly, or of deliberately generating a ''virus incident in order to test their corporate procedures, or of showing others in the organisation what they would see if they were hit by a virus''.
Obviously, there is considerable intellectual justification for testing anti-virus software against real viruses. If you are an anti-virus vendor, then you do this (or should do it!) before every release of your product, in order to ensure that it really works. However, you do not (or should not!) perform your tests in a ''real'' environment. You use (or should use!) a secure, controlled and independent laboratory environment within which your virus collection is maintained.
operating system is windows 98 s.e.

There isn't a free version of Norton but there is of AVG %26 it is better then Norton.
Go here for the free version - http://www.download.com/AVG-Anti-Virus-F...

Don't bother with Norton. You need an Freeware solution, and Avast! Home Edition will help you.
there is not a free version, only a trial version, you can get it at syamantec.com

Go to www.cnet.com
Try a online antivirus scanner and a online anti-adware/malware/spyware scanner in safe mode with network to clean up your computer BEFORE you download anything. This because the program you download can get infected.
Disable ''System Restore'' for Windows Me and XP, then restart your PC to clean your system restore points for viruses, spyware, adware etc.
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/communi...
Now restart in safe mode.
To get in safe mode Press ''F8'' upon boot up.
Select ''Safe mode with Network''.
Go to Start 鈥?Run - type iexplore http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html Enter(ok).
Do a full scan of all your drivers. If something is found, delete it, reboot and do the same again in safe mode with network.
When that scan does not find anything you reboot again in safe mode with network.
Go to Start 鈥?Run 鈥?type iexplore http://www.ewido.net/en/ Enter(ok).
Do a full scan of all your drivers. If something is found, delete it, reboot and do the same again in safe mode with network.
**NOTE**: Do NOT do anything else with your computer when scanning. This because you can start virus/adware/spyware/malware manually.
When no one of these scanners are showing anything you can reboot back to normal mode.
Turn on ''System Restore''.

Antivirus: BitDefender Online scanner - will scan and remove threats.

Help please !!!
Once you have a virus, they often attack anti-virus programs making them not able to work properly.
You need to treat it like you have a virus and clean it up yourself
Free on-line scan http://housecall.trendmicro.com
Scan with both AdAware and SpyBot available at http://download.com
Then manually update and scan with AVG
If these find anything and can't remove them try scanning in safe mode (F8 during start up)
Antivirus are dime a dozen; I don't mean to discourage anyone. But since I have my wireless router I never encountered any trouble on my system.
