Antivirus software
My wife's paypal account was hacked the other day. I'm thinking it's time to get some better protection - firewall, antivirus, etc. I just have free software currently.
Not much of a computer guy, so I could use some recommendations.

Do you think that for some reason that your computer itself was hacked and that is how they got into the paypal account? or did she somehow give out info on a phishing site (more likely)? Personally I like AVGfree and have had no problems with it for antivirus. As far a an firewall do you have a router? |

I have AVG free as well. I also have some free software that came with my Windows OS (I think it's called Microsoft Defender). Yes, I have a router.
