does it have virus protection on it

no nothing is built in but there are apps for that and some of them are free. . the major antivirus companies have paid apps that are good.

I down loaded AVG which is a free app, since there is no built in virus protection that I am aware of.

Mr/Ms/Mrs Donovan, I dont think it does. I have downloaded AVG Free for Tablets and that works well with whatever virus protections my ISP offers.

It does't come with pre-loaded anti virus software. You'll have to purchase and install one.

I bought this as an Anti-Virus. If you go to the web site it lists what this covers. I received the CD and box which lists it as an Anti-Virus. For Anti-Malware I also use SuperAntiSpyware.

I haven't had one on my computer in the 6 years that I've had it. I have always used 360 or some type of Norton Antivirus. But they say 24 tech support so I can only assume that they help remove any viruses you may encounter. I am not 100% sure so you may want to contact them directly before purchasing

No, this one is only antivirus. You'll want one of their "Security" editions instead.

Windows 7 was installed. Like any other computer "off the shelf" you are on your own for anti-virus. I use the AVG free version, myself, and have never had any problems.

It does. It has McAfee pre-installed. I myself don't use McAfee though and it took me a while to actually remove it. I assume its a 30 day trial but I didn't see any counters on it.

You should *have* a reputable antivirus app on your machine, but Microsoft's Windows Defender is acceptable if you would like a free, basic, easy to maintain software.Please also read the following article:Tools for a Safer PC - Krebs on Security - http://krebsonsecurity.com/tools-for-a-safer-pc/(Note that "Microsoft Security Essentials" is now known as "Windows Defender" which I referenced above.)

I am not real sure because when I received my computer I automatically had whatever came with this computer removed as far as the programs and had my computer tech install my anti virus software and my firewall sorry I could not be of much help to you

It comes with Norton Trial pack. Free anti virus software may be downloaded from cnet.com.

Windows 8.1 includes very basic virus protection in the form of Windows Defender, it is not a comprehensive solution but it should suffice for most basic users.
