Try this link. Best I've found. Daily up dates, all free.

Minor annoyance, Daily up dates can interfere with surfing when you first connect to the Web. Otherwise trouble free.

There is nothing to learn from someone who already agrees with you.

Just noticed your Machine specs. Only 64mb with XP Pro? If that's accurate, I advise updating Ram to 128mb minimum, 256mb if possible. 256 is the limit of your eMachine, FYI

Running the OS in Ram is another alternative to avoid infection of virus, once it occurs, just reboot the computer and all viruses will be destroyed
