Agregar Etiqueta | Sumario: | Four free pieces of antivirus software were evaluated with the objective of examining their performance and produced functions, both individually and as a group, when used to protect computers against malware. The aim was to determine whether it is convenient to use more than a piece of antivirus software at a time. 64-bit S.O.
