I wanna buy anti-virus - which is best?

[memetrus]

anyone who buys an av .. go buy a mac

why

why ?! I don't get it either

[pineappleseeds]

Avira AntiVir Personal + Comodo Firewall + SUPERAntiSpyware

That is what I use. From what I have read that is one of the best combinations of free protection software. I have also disabled the pop-up from the free Avira Personal.

if i were to really buy one i would definitely go for kaspersky or ESET NOD32 .you cant get wrong with any one of these

[statorwb]

Eset Nod 32 the best.

Avira AntiVir Premium

ESET NOD is by far one of the most noteworthy Anti-virus programs.

I use Norton 360 v4 on my Win7 x86 laptop and it is much much speedier than it used to be. I also use Norton Internet Security 2010 on my Win7 x64 laptop and compared to Norton 2007 it is so much faster it is not funny. It is no longer a resource hog at all and is one of the best at virus/malware detection. I have been using Norton since 2007 continually on atleast one system and it gets quicker and quicker each year - Now it is not even known as the resource hog at all, there are plenty slower nowdays.

I have also used PC Tools paid Net Security & it is pretty good, but if you use alot of wrz it is not too great as it flags almost all keygens (alot of false-positives). AVG is similar to PCTools performance, though I would not pay for either. McAfee is not worth paying for either, though it is a very good virus/malware detector.

Top paid AV's & iNet Security apps from my personal experience-:
* Kaspersky
* Norton Net Sec.
* Norton 360
* Eset32

Best free apps-:
* Rising Anti-Virus
* PC Tools Firewall

I have used all the apps I recommend. Good luck!
