Steve HudsonI am using comodo antivirus, It best one

-
For my windows machines AVG from Gridsoft but I also have a IPcop Linux box setup between my network and the world. So its really point less to have antivirus on my machines.
-
I use and recommend Avast 4 home http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html a free antivirus - avast! 4 Home Edition is a full-featured antivirus package designed exclusively for home users and non-commercial use.
-
I paid for Norton, but Kim Kommando (computer expert on the radio) recommends AVG.
-
norton..but it's slow sometimes..if I hadn't already paid for it I'd use AVG.
-
I was using AVG... but I got rid of them cuz I'm on a Mac.
-
AVG
-
I have AVG installed and I get daily updates every morning. I'm happy with it so far.
-
am using a vast and its very effective,it updates itself automatically.
-
I have used Norton in the past.. from what I have read here from others that they have good reason not to like it or use it, I can't add another comment except that they are correct.... I say this with my own experience with Symantec/Norton. I read an article from PC magazine regarding performance of several antivirus programs.... seems that AVG didn't rank all that high along with a few other brand name antivirus programs...OH by the way... I would have thought that Avast would have scored higher... BUT!!!! NOW READ THIS.... PC Mag. rated Kaspersky quite high... I'd suggest that the people that are reading this start reading about Kaspersky Anti Virus Program. I am now using Kaspersky... and have found a big difference!

here is my famous long list of FREE information, and I have been using all of them for some time NO problems.

Another little great tool for you is go to Google or Yahoo : One of the best pieces of FREE software there is today that will show you what is on your computer is known as: Belarc once it is downloaded you simply run and time you wish to see what is installed on your PC, from OS to Model, hardware, software, hot fix’s and the Keys to software on PC. This makes it a valuable program in that you can run it every so often and print off and save for you keys if for no other reason. *** Note: It is wise to only run one virus program at a one time but run as many spyware as you like, only run them one at a time, other wise they will conflict with each other, it is good to have more than one as each will find some thing the other did not. Unistall any other program as they may conflict such as Norton,MacAfee etc. The only one this list that runs in safemode F8 is AVG anti-spyware, which does work great in safemode. Also wise thing to do is to run the virus & spyware program once without internet connection and then again with internet, as some times the virus will try to block program other wise when internet is running. This list has been drawn up by me and designed by me and is not copyed from anywhere as it has been suggested, please feel free to use as much as you like, and I hope it helps in some way.

CLICK APPLY AND OK AND THEN COMPUTER WILL REBOOT AND A MESSAGE WILL TELL ABOUT THE FACT YOU HAVE RESET MSCONFIG, JUST PUT CHECK MARK IN THE BOX AND CLICK OK AND YOUR DONE. THIS WILL SPEED UP HOW FAST YOUR COMPUTER BOOTS UP! **** If for some reason there’s a problem and you need to turn ever thing back on just go back to run- msconfig- startup-enable all- apply and ok System will reboot and see#7above and your back to normal. ^^^^ If you see a box with a check mark in it but basically a blank area following where it should tell you name of software (this is spy ware) uncheck box and remove with other item in #6.

XoftSpySE detects and perfectly removes over 225,000 harmful, dangerous and likely unwanted applications. Detections include Adware, Spyware, Trojans, Worms, hijackers, toolbars, Keyloggers and many of the most prevalent and annoying viruses. http://www.antispywaremechanic.com

1. AVG 2. KasperSky 2009. (it's commercial but I used the decoded version lol) ================================= With the fast development of network, the network issues such as viruses, attacks, hacks are increasing day by day. So network monitor and analysis is becoming more and more necessary nowadays. If you are interested in PACKET SNIFFER, I'd like to share it with you. All at http://www.etherlook.com

I use Avira...and it is way better than AVG. Check out www.cnet.com for ratings and comparisons.

My updated stock answer ... Computer exploits do not always enter your system as corrupt email attachments or as compromised software. Many exploits are quietly downloaded and installed without your knowledge. Your system security can be breached simply by visiting otherwise “safe” websites that had been hacked by cyber-criminals. Once these threats are installed on your system, they can be remotely monitored and controlled by cyber-criminals using other compromised systems (remote “Zombie” servers). This manner of criminal social engineering surrenders complete control of your system to the cyber-criminal. Among other things, exploits can copy themselves into your operating system folders (replacing legitimate files), alter your Startup routines (for self-preservation), hijack the functionality of your browser (to track or direct your use), and deliver your every keystroke to criminals (including credit card information and account passwords). Well-engineered exploits will recognize and defeat most common anti-virus or anti-spyware applications that you have installed -- giving you the impression that you are still "safe". YOU ARE NOT! Before you begin any removals or repairs, DISABLE “SYSTEM RESTORE” to prevent automatic re-infection when you reboot. You may also need to remove any previously installed anti-virus, anti-spyware, and registry cleaning applications that you are currently using as they may be compromised or corrupted. Some will require special tools, such as The Norton Removal Tool, available from my Internet Security page. Other product-specific removal tools may be required. Please use them before installing any replacement anti-threat software or reinstalling damaged applications. Furthermore, there are many virus and Trojan removal tools on my Security page, including the incomparable HiJackThis! HJT! is an advanced tool that must NOT be used by novice users without direct supervision by an experienced user (please see warning below). If you are having difficulty running any of the online scans from my Internet Security page, this may be an indication that your system is compromised. Please reboot in Safe Mode and try the scans again. Once you have run at least THREE DIFFERENT online anti-threat scans to determine that your system is clear of all threats, you may re-enable System Restore. Otherwise, leave System Restore disabled until your system has been cleared of all threats. Begin with an online Windows Live Safety Scan (recommended), BitDefender, AVG/Ewido, Kaspersky, or Panda ActiveScan, among the many online threat scanners from my Internet Security page ... http://SecorConsulting.net/pages/security.html One or more of the scan may identify the exploit by name. Write them down! You may have to search the internet of a specific solution. Often, the scans will remove the more common threats. Next, install Prevx CSI, a FREE quick boot-time security check that identifies many common threats ... http://www.prevx.com/ Another excellent FREE tool is PC Tools’ ThreatFire (http://www.threatfire.com/). NOTE: If you DO NOT intend to install more than one anti-threat application, I urge you to install ThreatFire to supplement the protection of your primary anti-virus application. Now that we have begun to secure your system, lets improve your housekeeping. Download Piriform’s Crap Cleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com/) for general system housekeeping tasks. Un-check the Yahoo toolbar option during installation. Immediately check for Updates before running your first analysis and cleaning all drives of temp files. Follow your file cleanup with a Registry scan and fix to remove extraneous junk. A good schedule to maintain would be to clean out temp files daily, check the registry weekly, and check for updates monthly. Optionally, you may download Piriform’s Defraggler (http://www.defraggler.com/) to defragment your hard drives. To maintain optimal system performance, defragment your drives (or individual files) often. Crap Cleaner and Defraggler are rock-solid utilities that are FREE for personal use. I use them religiously. Next, sownload and install SpywareBlaster to protect your browser and HOSTS file from exploitation. SpywareBlaster is another excellent FREE utility. Check for updates, then "protect all". Please update monthly ... http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/ If you REALLY want a truly secure HOSTS file, I recommend AbelhaDigial’s HostMan (http://www.abelhadigital.com/) – please install the last non-beta release.. This automates and monitors the popular http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm source file. I recommend that you frequently update your HOSTS file to block communications with many known parasites, the most annoying pay-per-click ads, and hijacker sites. This will harden your system against threats as well as many popular anti-spyware applications. It will open your eyes. LET ME MAKE ONE THING ABUNDANTLY CLEAR. THERE IS NO "BEST" ANTI-THREAT APPLICATION THAT IS 100% INFALLIBLE! ZERO, ZIP, ZILCH, NADA, NONE! This should help convince the brain-dead bone-heads out there. Click on VirusTotal statistics (http://www.virustotal.com/estadisticas.html) and view the “Failures In Detection (Last 24 Hours)” donut. You will notice that NEARLY ALL of tens of thousands of suspect files will go undetected by at least one of the thirty most popular anti-threat applications! That should be unsettling to everyone. Clearly, there are no "silver bullets" anywhere on the horizon. Any software publisher that claims otherwise is a outright LIAR! Now that you are motivated, please install one of the following anti-threat applications. Each has their own strengths and weaknesses, but they are all among the best available. Check for updates immediately after installation and update frequently thereafter (daily is preferred) Avast! - http://www.avast.com/ AVG - http://www.grisoft.com/ (anti-virus AND ewido anti-spyware) Avira - http://www.avira.com/ BitDefender – http://www.bitdefender.com/ CA Antivirus - http://www.ca.com/ F-Secure - http://www.f-secure.com/ Kaspersky - http://usa.kaspersky.com/ NOD32 - http://www.eset.com/ Norman – http://www.norman.com/ (definitely NOT Norton!) Panda Antivirus - http://www.pandasoftware.com Prevx – http://www.prevx.com/ Sophos - http://www.sophos.com/ TrendMicro - http://www.trendmicro.com/ Windows Live OneCare - http://onecare.live.com/ Mpst of these anti-threat application developers offer FREE or trial software, and many will "play well together", should you intend to install more than one anti-threat tool (recommended). At the very least, install ThreatFire as a secondary anti-threat mechanism. To protect your browser form future hijackings please install ... XPL/AVG LinkScanner ... http://www.explabs.com/downloads/ or McAfee SiteAdvisor ... http://www.siteadvisor.com/download/ie.html The XPL LinkScanner is now a part of the commercial AVG package. If you have an IT background you will find HiJackThis! from my Security page an invaluable tool to track down and remove stubborn malware. Use the convenient online analyzer or upload your HJT! log to any appropriate HJT! forum for assistance. CAUTION: If you do not know your way around the Windows operating system, please do not attempt to use HJT! You may render your system unusable! Now let’s alter your other unsafe Internet practices. Change your mail reader (e.g., Outlook) to accept only plain ASCII text emails and never open attachments from unknown sources (and most known sources). Avoid ALL file/music/video sharing sites. Maintain a very small IM community (if you must), and become realistically “paranoid”. Indeed, “THEY” are out to get you! Make certain that your Windows firewall (or other software firewall) is active and FULLY STEALTHED. Remember that a "closed" port is every bit as visible to the outside world as an "open" port. Only “stealth” ports are invisible. I prefer using both hardware and software firewalls. Here are a few good software firewalls … Ashampoo Firewall http://www2.ashampoo.com/webcache/html/1/product_2_0050__.htm Comodo Firewall http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/index.html Jetico Firewall http://www.jetico.com/jpf2.htm Kerio Winroute Firewall http://www.kerio.com/kwf_home.html OnlineArmor Firewall http://www.online-armor.com/downloads.html Outpost Firewall http://www.agnitum.com/products/outpostfree/ PortsLock Firewall http://www.devicelock.com/pl/download.html Sunbelt Kerio Firewall http://www.sunbelt-software.com/Home-Home-Office/Sunbelt-Personal-Firewall/ ZoneAlarm Firewall http://www.zonealarm.com/store/content/catalog/products/sku_list_za.jsp WITHOUT EXCEPTION, avoid the use of ALL "no name" anti-threat and registry cleaning applications. ROGUE APPLICATIONS CAN AND WILL COMPROMISE YOUR SYSTEM! All those who are careless and harbor any manner of threat (due their lack of diligence or general apathy) should include themselves as part of the problem. They are a public menace. If you know anyone that fits this description, please avoid all contact with these morons. They are a threat to your system. Please forward this document (or a link) to these pathetic souls. You have my permission to add them to your IM again, as soon as they reduce their threat level. The best of luck in fighting the good fight! My Internet Security page ... http://SecorConsulting.net/pages/security.html My ID Theft page ... http://SecorConsulting.net/pages/identity.html My XP security “hardening” page (there is no Vista direct equivalency at this time)... http://SecorConsutling.net/pages/benchmark.html

I use them all, this is the only way I can keep a good record of my virus archive which is over 100,000+ at this time. Most scanner cannot scan the entire list without problems. If I had to pick one, it would probably be trendmicro antivirus as a good all around virus/malware scanner. P.S. Don't ask me for any viruses, I don't share them.
-
Avast
-
Free doesn't mean, its the best. There are many antivirus products on the market and I have tested most of them. I don't like norton or symantec, f-secure is ok, trendmicro's pretty good too. They all have the good and the bad; Microsoft now offers free antivirus, which was paid before, but no one was buying it and more computer are getting infected on a regular basis so they removed the pay-stub. I have not tried this one, but some say it is ok? I will not suggest a product unless I have tried it.
-
AVG
-
hi avg but don't likit
-
I don't use a free anti virus.
-
avast!, and a good alternative would be Avira. Important: do NOT use more than one AV at the same time. They might conflict with each other, and/or make your computer unnecessarily slower. avast! - http://www.avast.com Avira - http://www.free-av.com
-
I dont use a FREE Anti-Virus, i use Nod32 which is a paid for product. However if i had to choose between all of the FREE Anti-Virus softwares then i would choose Avast. It's detection rates are high and provides real time protection which you would normally get from PAID for products.

Mcfee.
-
OK,AS FAR AS MY CONCERN ,I THINK IF THE ANTI VIRUS SOFTWARE IS NOT UPDATED THAN ITS NOT MUCH BETTER THAN A GARBAGE.IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR FREE + GOOD ANTIVIRUS PROGRAM ALWAYS CHECK WHETHER ITS HAVING LATEST VIRUS DEFINATIONS + PROPER UPDATING FACILITIES IN FREE VERSION. I SUGGEST YOU "AVAST ANTIVIRUS ". IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR BEST BUT WITH TRIAL VERSION I LL SUGGEST BITDEFENDER OR KASPERSKY .
-
I am using Avg anti virus,it is best for every one..
-
Sometimes free is not always the best route, but you should be able to find some good products out there in the 50-80$ range too. Regardless, the most important thing is to use a security product that includes anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-spam and firewall. Make sure to run and install Windows update every second Tuesday of the month. Patch *all* other applications as well such as Adobe Acrobat Reader, Flash, Itunes, Quicktime and Realplayer.
-

I used to use Avast, now i use Nod32.
-
Avast, and it works great.+5
-
I don't use a free antivirus. You get what you pay for in this type of progam. I use McAfee. Their customer support is great.
-
I don't risk my data using a free antivirus but I use a free malware scanner from malwarebytes
-
AVG is free and best antivirus software..
-
None. I have a Mac and take backups conscientiously.
-
ive used avg before free
-
All free AV's are pretty much the same and all are second to the paid solutions. If you do internet banking then you can get a paid AV for free from your bank,
-
Avast is the free antivirus which I use.

Penicillin?

Free antivirus service is so enticing. Of course, one should choose the best one that provides the best service for free. I have a paid subscription to an antivirus service but I also am trying a free antivirus service to check out what this service provider has to offer. My favorite is Webroot because of its lightweight design and very fast application. But I don’t think it has a free version. AVG Antivirus is free to download and free to use forever (according to their website). It provides basic protection for your devices. It includes your whole system, web and email in its basic protection services. It also provides versions for different devices. My android phone gets excellent service from AVG Antivirus while my Mac also gets the same service. I haven’t tried it with my PC as I already have another antivirus working in it. Basically, I’m happy with AVG Antivirus’ free service. It provides solid foundational protection for your devices. Source: https://www.softvire.com.au/?s=avg&product_cat=0&post_type=product

The one that comes free with Windows 10. If you have any other anti virus installed it turns off the Windows 10 antivirus. Go to settings then to security (usually the last one at the bottom) you can get the information there. It is the best available and it is free.
-
I use Norton
-
I pay for Norton 360.
-
I don't use any and I don't have a firewall either but I don't get viruses because I have linux and get to deal with 1/2 of apps everyone on the internet like to use not working instead.
-
I'm anti-antivirus.
-
the only protection i have on my computer is malwarebytes premium.
-
I don't. I don't use IE, and my new tablet doesn't have Windows which is what most viruses attack. I also don't have enough money to make it worth anyone's time or trouble.
-
I pay for my antivirus software. through the nose too IMHO.
-
ma;warebytes.com. As the name implies it gets rid of malware. It is an antivirus too. There is a basic free version and paid one. I like it very much.
