    I'm really sorry for crashing the thread but I have just one question. Is stinger a capable primary antivirus now? I used to use it in 2007 and though it held definitions for only 50 viruses, worked like magic.

    AVG isn't all good. I used it for 3 months before it started coming down with all sorts of problems. Switched to AVAST Free. Never looked back.

    Just use mse (microsoft security essentials) it's as light as nod32 and as effective . Or don't use antivirus at at all , just common sense which is also free

    I use to use and pay for ESET NOD32, but when I reinstalled my machine and went with Windows 7, it brought my machine to its knees, I have no idea why, I went through support and everything. So then I started to look for alternatives and found Avast and it free, cannot beat it, plus i read some of the reports and it has pretty good detection for a free program, and does not slow my machine down at all.

    Its free and light..have had no problems running it on my Vista.

    AVG has long been demoted to being a poor antivirus solution. Avast, Avira, and MSE are ones that I know are good at the moment. Personally, I've been using Avira Antivir on all 3 computers in my home, and it has picked up on something before when we had a guest browsing on one of them. Other than that, they all stay clean.
