CVN Anti-Virus & Virus Scams Links

Complied by jdb_educator, Managing Editor CVN

Most of these sites also provide links for security software, free and/or trial downloads too. Our efforts however are to provide our citizens with some useful anti-virus and hoax links. Free trials and other information is made available with all or most of these retailers. If you have suggestions for adding URLS to this page send them to: CVN Weekly ( [email protected] )

Some also provide free removal tools for identified viruses.
