Antivirus software are the utility programs that detect and prevent your computer system from attack of viruses. The main task of an antivirus software is to check all the programs/data files available in the computer. If a virus is detected, the antivirus clears it from the system. A pirated antivirus software should not be used because it will not be able to remove all the viruses, rather it may spread the virus itself.
