Father in law who is useless with computers has just asked
what anti virus he should buy as his has expired. I have never paid for anti virus, but don't feel qualified to say "don't bother bro".
Anyone got any good recommendations for an ultimate set up for a bloke who never really uses his laptop in the first place?
Is there a good free one that I can pop over to him in a link that any of you folks recommend?
Warm regards,
C21
