For virus protection, check out Avast or AVG. For spyware, check out ad-aware 2007 and Hijack This or turn on Windows Defender (You may have to download Windows defender, but it’s free.) For a firewall, you can turn on Windows Firewall or try out Zone Alarm. There are lots of pages on the Internet telling you how to avoid Spam. Do a search. You can find the information and these programs.

For free virus protection go to avasti.com. I have been using it for years without a problem. It is totally transparent, no ads, no renewals every year, no pop ups and automatically updates a couple times a week. It is much better then Norton or Mcaffee. I think they make their money from business accounts.
As for repair it might but do not know. good luck.

I use AVG anti-virus it is free and the best available on the market.
go to grisoft.com and download the avg7.5 free edition.
as for crash protection i don’t know except to back up your files often.
Try out AVG antivirus …Its the best free antivirus software available……for downloading just follow the link below
