 Avira Anti-Virus
The world's best anti-virus software - free
Giving away our age a bit, we've been making websites for more than 20 years and over those years we have tested, tried and sometimes paid for lots of different anti-virus/malware software. In our opinion, Avira's anti-virus software is the world's best, easiest to use and most secure anti-virus package available - and it's free. Avira offer paid upgrade versions if you want to activate additional optional features but for most people, Avira's free anti-virus software will suffice. We've been using it for at least the last ten years and it's always kept our machines protected.

We've used a number of free website hosts over the years, most doing a pretty decent job with little or no downtime and no ads placed on-site. Freehostia currently wins our recommendation for best online website provider with a totally free hosting package that allows members to host up to five different websites with 250MB disk space - all for free.

 Currency Calculator
Instantly calculate how much your pounds are worth in 'other' money
Most of us don't usually pay a lot of attention to currency exchange rates (certainly not before Brexit!), although we sometimes hear of a 'strong' or 'weak' pound on TV news. It's at the airport or preparing holiday spending money in euros, dollars, or lots of other currences when we take a closer look at how much our pounds are worth in other countries and currencies. Will it be steak and wine every night at top restaurants or go fishing in the sea for your supper? It can also be useful to calculate other currencies into UK£ when shopping online from overseas websites where the prices are frequently displayed in euros, US$, etc. Currency Calculator is an easy-to-use LIVE currency converter, generously provided free-of-charge by Calculator.net. Simply enter the amount of pounds you want to convert to euros, pounds, Swiss Francs, South Korean Won or whatever fits your needs. Of course, you can do the same in reverse by converting an amount of foreign currency into 'real' British pounds!
