3 of the best free software packages

FREE FREE FREE! well thats what everybody wants these days right? well that exactly what you can get.

I have been working in the IT industry for about 9 years now, most of that time as an IT consultant and Technician. Over this time, these following programs have and still rate at the top of my 3 most important and free software packages available today.

LavasoftAd-Aware - The first, and still the best spy software removal application. This is still my favorite spy ware removal tool, I have been using this now for over 5 years! There is a paid version with additional features, like a resident spy ware scanner and the capability to schedule scans of the computer, but the free version is more than enough for most home users. Very accurate and only a few minutes for a quick scan and clean.

AVG Antivirus – This easy-to-use anti virus application uses very little of your computer’s resources (unlike Norton, McAfee, and the other major names in this class) and there is even a completely FREE version. This is another program I have used for many years working in the IT industry and for Gold Coast Computer Solutions. New updates are released daily and downloaded automatically. It is very accurate in picking up viruses and fairly fast to scan and remove. definately the most trusted free virus removal program and even stacks up against the paid ones. I would never pay for Norton, Mcafee etc while this is available. AVG products are used on millions of computer worldwide!

CCleaner – For general software repairs and computer performance issues you cant go past Ccleaner. It will thoroughly clean out your web browser, Recycle Bin and temporary files, registry, unnecessary third-party application trash, and plenty more. Running CCleaner on your system frees up space, keep your computer running smoothly, and protect your privacy. It's also veryfast and very easy to use. this is by far my most handy program i use day in day out.

Please feel free to leave any feedback or any other programs you think should be included or added to the list. now if you havent already, get downloading!
