Best Answer

a lot of "free" anti-viruses wont work, some are the viruses themself.

i have had a fake antivirus destroy my entire computer, then leave without a trace.

so, if its Talk Talk, or Mcaffe, safe, if its spysherrif, or something like that, no.

SpySherrif is an antivirus that is fake.

Be careful out there.

Answer: some do, some are fake.
