Protection from hackers

I’ve noticed that there seem to be a lot of different anti-virus and anti-malware software programs available for sale.  And I’ve noticed that whenever I buy a new computer, there seems to be some kind of  internet security already loaded on the computer.  It used to be that these programs that were preloaded were free, but the last couple of times I bought a new computer it seemed that you were only given a few weeks of free use before you had to register the program and pay some money in order to keep it.

I think that it is a shame that when you spend so much money on buying a new computer that you don’t just get that kind of protection pre-loaded for free forever.  Although computers are slowly becoming more affordable, they are still a major out of pocket expense for many families.  And I think that the companies that make them are making enough money to be able to come up with a good deal with the software companies to provide protection from hackers to the consumer for free.
