What Antivirus program is your fav?

[ThreeD]

so it's that time of the year, my kaspersky key is expiering and I'm not sure I want to renew it.

What kind of antivirus software are you using? What's your opinion on the best antivirus software out there?

Any feedback is appreciated

Norton Anti-virus

Paid: NOD32
Free: Avast

NEVER EVER EVER have 2 antiviruses on one computer.. NEVER

They interfere with each other and start bi**hing up the OS :$ Maybe not the combination of Avast and NOD32 but others do.

I use Norton, McAfee just doesn't cut it.

My favourite is AntiVir (freeav.com), and second favourite is AVG.

I use AVG.. I *accidently* formatted my familys hard-drive.. so we installed windows xp.. but no anti-virus so we got AVG

PcCillin BEst out there in my opiion, Norton slows my pc down. Rubbish Program!

Best 2 i've used are AVG Pro and Sophos, norton is a pile of garbage AVG finds stuff norton lets through, McAfee is the worst ever

 

[Sabre]

AVG, for sure

i cant really say i only had norton antivirus. isnt AVG standart on Windows versions?

 

[faisj]

Symantec

I use Trend-Micro PcCillin. It is probably the best I have used in a long time. Mcafee & Norton... It just doesn't seem to cut it.

I don't like AVG it would never delete any viruses for me. It would say it couldn't delete and put it into some folder. McAffee is the best one I have come across. I cannot even unzip an infected compressed folder without McAffee telling me it contains a virus. My computer has never been so fast as well.

Something you should know, those of you who use AntiVir and AVG, I have had both them programs, and when I installed McAffee it told me about loads of stuff neither of those 2 programs could find. McAffee is better than them two!

I use AVG FREE! Its one of the best around, and its free!

It deletes all viruses on my comp, unlike norton, panda etc.

AVG here as well.
One of the only antivirus programs that doesn't screw up settings and slow down my computer.

I can tell you what the absolute worst av program is:
Platinum Internet Security 2005

Absolutely impossible to uninstall. It sets itself up as your windows firewall, and doesn't let you remove it. So you can't uninstall it, since it's "protecting" itself from a program just removing it. Also can't just end the process in ctrl+alt+del either.

I installed it on my wife's laptop, and I'm glad I didn't install it in my main computer. I'm pretty sure I'm just going to have to use the restore discs on her laptop.

My favorite antivirus is McAfee. Some people say it doesn't detect enough, but I've never had any problems with it, and its detected a lot of crap that could've messed my system up.

Have a good one,
Jorge

Detects more than AVG anyway!
