Good anti virus software

[Nester6]

Can you recommend a good antivirus software system to install on my computer besides Norton? Thanks.

Avg is usually your best bet for a decent free one.

I use BitDefender. Its one of the highest rated anti-virus software. It cost 24$ though, but I think its worth it to know your comp is protected.

Also Avira AntiVirus is decent.

Free aswell.

I also use AVG. Haven't let me down so far.

Mcafee works fine for me

 

[slasher]

NOD32 is about the best you can get.

I've heard good things about all those mentioned so far.Remember any anti virus program is as good as its last update.Perhaps this is why different tests come up with different winners.
What you don't do is to run two antivirus programs at the same time.That causes many incompatibility problems.
Above all though , surf sensibly.Don't open attachments from untrusted sources.Don't use Internet Explorer as most viruses are targeted on it and MS is slow to provide fixes.

Webroot and Macafee blow. I use Trend Micro Internet Security. Very effective with version 3 of Firefox:

Since they got involved with Sophos Webroot is much improved.So they say.
I use it as it came preloaded on my computer with spysweeper.

Anything free. I had a trial version of Norton 360. Worked great, but AVG is free and works exactly the same.

I have been using the free version of AVG too.

I never ever had a problem. Recommanded.

 

[hiropro]

Had AVG for a long time.Never let me down.

 

[jibbijib]
