im on vista 64 bit and what is a nice FREE active Anti spyware/malware protection?
i love threatfire, it was awesome but theres no support for 64bit unfortunately. i cant even find the beta.. anyway im looking for something like threatfire but an alternative and compatible with 64bit Systems
please also nothing that conflicts with avira
-
have u tried malwarebytes anti malware? or superantispyware?

ThreatFire v. 4.6.0.4 beta 64-bit version is available since yesterday.
It's still a beta though, so I certainly wouldn't use it on a production machine.
The beta is intended for Vista and Win7.
Or you will have to switch to a HIPS like Windows Defender with full Spynet membership or a much stronger alternative like Comodo FW & Defense+ HIPS.
That is, if you think HIPS are 'nice'
They require more input and have a learning curve (Defense+) but can offer very strong protection. -
superantispyware isnt active defense like threatfire.
thing with the threatfire beta if i click the link i get spyware doctor
also i dont want to learn using firewall blockers, its a hassle and gona mess up my computer. more trouble than its worth, id like some worry free protection
thanks for the suggestions though. -
I second this request
budgets are tight and looking for an alternative -
What url are you downloading from?
P.S. It's a beta, so be aware it might cause unforeseen issues. -
