Customer Success Testimonial: Recovery is Everything

Malwarebyte’s Anti-Malware

RH Numbers

Even though most decent anti-virus packages will also pick up malware, adware and spyware, none of them do it quite like Malwarebyte’s standalone Anti-Malware software. So the free version doesn’t give you real-time heuristic protection or a scheduler, but if you can remember to run it every now and again it will keep to safe and clean.

In the event that you slip up and something gets by it will help to eradicate it with ease. Even malware that attempts to block MalwareBytes from running can now be defeated with the latest version using MalwareBytes' Chameleon technology.

Notepad++

RH Numbers

For the user who feels more at home in front of a command line than the Windows GUI, Notepad++ which is an excellent replacement for the standard Windows Notepad as it provides a good all-round editing environment for nearly every syntax known to man.

Even if you only dabble a little with coding, it’s a great tool to use due to its simplicity and miniscule footprint. Now you have no excuse not to make those tweaks to those mothballed projects.

Libre or Open Office ?

I was under the impression from most reviews that Libre was a cleaner and more mature package than Open Office.

Or is Open Office back to being the main alternative ?

Any comments welcome

I sort of thought

that the phrase "windows PC" in the title sort of gave the game away!

When we have a "Non windows based PC" freeware list, i'll look forward to reading your input.

Hopefully, it will be more constructive than this little off topic gem....

Bloody linux fanbois.....
