Hi, there have been many topics regarding PC Guard and tbh most are against using it.

The plus side is, it's better to have it on than nothing.

The downside is.... it's a pain in the preverbial and no way as good as many other freebies on the market.

PCGuard is mega Resource hungry and slowed my system down quite a bit.

The free alternatives many people swear by are.
Zone Alarm, Ashampoo and even Commodo for firewalls
Avast for virus scanning.
