I also use the free version of Incredimail and have had it for 7 years without a problem. You just have to watch what you click and be knowledgable about it. Do some research before you call people suckers.
    Actually you just shouldn't call people names or denigrate their choices.

    for Microsoft Essentials, most people won't be using the 64bit most are using 32bit..... then all you have to know is what windows you are using like XP or Windows 7.....the page I linked to in my pervious post will take you there directly and just click on download...

    I use Avast antivirus, it's free and works well. I also use
    Malware, a free anti spy ware It works great. I just run it every so often to clean my computer, when it's running slow. The spyware really makes it run slow.

    I just bought a new computer today...of course they asked if they could sell me an antivirus program and I said no, I'll just download a free one!! He nearly crumpled to the floor!!! He said don't you know you get more viruses from those dang programs than you are protected from?? So I bought one. Guess I'd rather be protected for sure, since I'd already had a serious attack and had to go have it cleaned off the old machine!! Cost me way more than the software I bought!!

    I have used Ccleaner for years and have never paid. Maybe you clicked on something in error that requires payment. I'd try it again becaues it really does a good job.

    Agree. This is free and great. I've been using it for over a year. I also use the free CCleaner (remember to also empty your "downloads" file if needed and to run the disk cleanup as you must compress files from time to time or your computer will run slowly. I also have superantispyware and malwarebyte's anti-malware installed. All four FREE programs keep my computers running without a problem.
