Best antivirus

[Karoline]

Finally got rid of norton, which was a pain ./
What is the best anti-virus? In your opinion ?

[DJAd]

I used to run Norton 2006 and soon fucked it off.

I now use the "Symantec Antivirus Client" which is the same thing(!!) but with all the shite stripped out, just the auto-protect & virus checker and the live update engine.

Much, much better and not so bloated, but if you wanna say away from Norton I hear AVG is very good.

[blacksheep]

either nod32 or kaspersky

[Karoline]

I was thinking about AVG, but looking at it ,it looks like it will take a lot of resources.
nod32 I am not sure about it, it looks small, will it really keep all virus' away?
Thanks

AVG is free and has kept me clean for a few years with weekly updates

[Leather]

Nod32 here.

Marcode recommended it and he was spot on.

Immediate improvement in system resources and speed over norton which I was running at the time.

[marcode]

NOD32 is the dogs bollox.

i also liked kaspersky.

stay clear of anything made by norton or macafee.. complete shite.

[Nikki]

as said nod32 here best one i have had

[Soulassassin]

Kaspersky for me, the only one that ive had in over a year now.

[CominAtcha]

I use Bit Defender for the frequency of the updates.

[iNSPECTA]

Nod32 here, and i've tried most AV's, this is the only one i've stuck with and that's actually kept my PC clean, other's have let things slip through.

I also installed it on my family's PC, they were constantly infecting that by looking at crap and downloading rubbish, they've not had an infection since.

been using nod for ages, great stuff, keeps it simple, does the job, and as others said, doesn't use as much system resources which is great.

[dgrav]

i have found Avg to be very good & appears not to slow up other traffic plus adaware filter although regular update are essential

[pheonixsingh]

im using mcafee security center at the mo, am looking to go for nod instead but then what woudl be the best firewall to use?

[marcode]

sygate is pretty good if u can still get hold of it.. symantec bought them over.

[blacksheep]

or keiro - had loads of probs with sygate

[Karoline]

Have opted to try Nod32, seeing as it has good comments. Not very much cpu used either. It is very good. Although i wonder how you can automatically start it at start up? It will not start and i don't see an option anywhere.

Ive used Kaspersky for 3 years now and its great. As for a firewall Ive just started using ZoneAlarm Pro and am very impressed so far.

[pheonixsingh]

am using nod32 and sygate now and its using hardly any resources as compared to mcafee, thanks for the advice guys

[chauhan]

I use Bitdefender, and have had no probs with it at all.
