Pros:Easy, web-based, free
Cons:Install ActiveX component, not real-time
The Bottom Line: Use it in addition to your regular anti-virus software. Set a reminder to go to the web site once a month.

Ever feel your Anti-Virus software might have missed something? This free resource is an excellent second look to check. You log into the web site and allow HouseCall to install an ActiveX component. You can select the drives you would like to scan and HouseCall will then scan your chosen locations. It takes a while just like a regular scan, but the operation is not intrusive enough to prevent other online activity.

Anyone who surfs or downloads lots of information from the web cannot do enough to protect a computer from the dangerous computer viruses or trojans out there.

I've used this site several times over the years and caught a half viruses Norton missed.

Recommended: Yes
