The BEST Hand Picked Free Software

The free software we've listed here has been hand picked by The IT Folk. We use this stuff regularly and don't get any commission on anything we recommend.

Antivirus - Don't Pay for antivirus!

We believe no one should pay for anti-virus in Fife or anywhere else for that matter. Because software such as Macafee, and Norton can be expensive, some people 'may' chose to go unprotected and that benefits no one! Today there's simply no need to pay for anti-virus software since there's a few free versions that give you ALL the anti virus, malware and spyware protection you need.

We've tried and tested them all but two get our vote. A lot of commercial and even free versions such as AVG come with bells and whistles most computer users in Fife just don't need. These bells and whistles can often result in a slow PC as they use up valuable system resources. This can be a real PC problem especially in older computers.

That's why we recommend the following:

1. Download Free Microsoft Security Essentials

This is the virus protection software we use here at the IT folk. Again we love it because it gives us all the protection we need without slowing down our PC's.

2. Download Free Avast Anti-Virus 6

We've removed some very resource hungry commercial antivirus software from many customer's PC's who complained their PC was too slow. After installing Avast and choosing the basic protection (which is all you really need) they've been amazed at how much faster their PC became.

If your PC has been infected with a virus or malware, your troubles have only just begun. A virus infected PC quite often connects to rogue servers over the internet only to download and install more Trojans, viruses, and malware making the use of your PC a nightmare.

Internet Browsers

Many of the problems encountered by our customers who complain that their internet browsing is painfully slow comes down to the browser they're using. Since installing Google Chrome and saying goodbye to Internet Explorer, we've NEVER looked back here at the IT Folk Fife.

Google Chrome is lightning quick, and we now install it as standard on all PC's we tune up or reformat. Our customers have always been delighted, especially when we demonstrate its speed compared to their old browser. It's not uncommon for Internet Explorer to take 20 seconds to open and display a page compared to the 2-3 seconds of Google Chrome.

Download it today and we assure you you won't be dis sa pointed!
