Two Cents worth,
Have over 30 yrs. in OS programming (DOS, ASM etc.). Have troubleshooted many virus infected systems. Experience shows that the best 3-4 anti-vir systems are:
Norton/Symantec (a little tough to use for average user.)
McAfee (more user friendly but sometimes a little slow with their dictionary updates)
AVG (very good-but need to manually update-like "Hertz" - 3rd place and trying harder.)
Kapersky AV ( seems to be a little less reliable but still very good)
All these are very good anti-vir programs. Mostly the biggest problem comes with the user getting used to how they work & the program quirks re: updating the virus definitions; synchronization with firewalls; setting the filter/blocking options etc.
Have encountered each (all) of these programs missing (not detecting) a virus on an infected system and another one finding it. Have also encountered each of these programs not being able to remove a particular virus and another program deleting it easily.
My advice:
1) get to know the program U R using very well & configure it properly.
2) Install & RUN more than one program on your system - one as a primary (autostart with computer startup) and another as a backup.
3) Do definitions updates VERY frequently. (every 3 days a new virus appears on NET)
4) Get rid of IE browser; just way too many vulnerabilities and it'll probably NEVER be fixed.
5) Put in & USE a firewall. (67% of a netsurfers do it naked WO any firewall at all-LOL)
Hope this helps.

PS- "If you want a totally safe computer, leave it in the box"- unknown but famous quote.

Hope all this helps

So my AOL keeps telling me that I need to download a new anti virus.
It keeps giving me McAfee, but I have heard that they aren't so good. Which anti-virus progs do you people use that you feel is the best?



doubtless, kaspersky anti-virus or bitdefender

i use kaspersky for most 5 years. that's cool and powerful ..

  5. Lightweight Free Anti Virus Software?

    internet-ready, it's over 10 years old, but it still works fine, the problem is I'm worried
    that an antivirus program would slow it down too much. (I have Norton Antivirus and Firewall on my
    other computer, which is much faster, and it slows down the computer a lot, especially booting. I
    kinda want this computer to be usable online.) I know that there are some great programs out ....

    Microsoft is generating false positives. Some affected by this "virus" say other anti-virus products
    do not pick up the infection — to me, this is a bit suspicious. So who should be responsible for
