- get this for starters Comodo firewall Pro with antivirus its free and will keep people from hacking into your system its one of the best out there.,
- A good set of programs: http://www.download.com/2701-20_4-6-1.html?tag=page;page (6 pages) each of these pieces of software will help against identity theft protection. If you didnt mind paying £40 then i would highly recommend investing in Kaspersky Internet Security with £10 upgrades each year, its what I use!! and never had a problem
- Any free software that claims to protect against identity theft would seem very shady to me. Identity theft protection is a complex process that only companies with sufficient resources can manage, while you might be able to find a free trial somewhere, this would be temporary, and probably not your best level of protection. There is some good software out there however, and fairly reasonably priced. I would just go to a local Best Buy or other software store and ask someone what they would recommend.
- Hello Esther V, To protect the computer from Identity Theft all you need to do is to keep your windows up-to-date with all of the patches and updates, Have a Antivirus program and keep it uptodate with all updates and run a full scan at least once a week, and do the same with your Spyware program and change your passwords often (every 3 months or sooner) Nothing is guaranteed but at least your guard will be up and running. But most of, don't put or give out personal information on line. Good Luck and be safe.
