Free Antivirus Firewall Software

Is There any Free Antivirus Firewall Software Available?

Many people asked me, is there any free antivirus firewall software solution? The answer is absolutely yes. There are two main solutions which provide you both antivirus and personal firewall for free of charge. (1) Antivirus and Firewall Integrate in One Software Package and (2) Antivirus and Firewall in Two Different Packages. Let see more detail about the difference between these two solutions as well as the answer to question: Which one should I use?

Key Terms:

• Anti-virus Feature: is used for protection against viruses, worms, Trojans, rootkits and malicious programs as well removing these kinds of threads out of the computer.

• Firewall Feature: is used to protect your computer from hacker that attempt to hack and steal your value information as well as take control on your computer. With firewall feature, you can also restrict the access to application and control any program in the computer.

1. Free Antivirus and Firewall Integrate in One Software Package

What we are talking here refers to one software package which has these two features anti-virus and firewall. Some people call it as antivirus plus firewall software or antivirus and firewall program. You can call it which one as your preference. When people are looking for free software package which has these two features, they hardly found one. And some people not even know there is any available. Yes it is true.

By now, I found only one package available for free of charge to download and use. What is it? It is Comodo Firewall and AntiVirus. Now, this company names it as Comodo Internet Security. This free edition provides you basic protection from viruses and internet attack including hacker.

2. Free Antivirus and Firewall in Two Different Packages

You can find free antivirus and firewall by getting them as two separated packages (free antivirus software standalone + free personal firewall software standalone). Even it is not so comfortable by using separated packages but there are many of them available out there.

What the Difference between These Two Solutions?

One question you may be asked, for free anti-virus and firewall solution. Should I choose the software that has both two features (anti-virus and firewall) or choose two separated packages?

When we do comparison, the software package which has both features antivirus and firewall is better solution as it is designed for users who need both features. And separated package is designed for users who need only one of them (example user need only antivirus or firewall). But there are some constraints. As we already see that there is only one software program (Comodo Internet Security) which available for free. And the other antivirus firewall programs which have both features are paid version.

Therefore, there are only few choices for user who want free antivirus and firewall. They can choose whether using Comodo Internet Security or using antivirus and firewall as two separated packages.
