Title: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: error398 on September 11, 2007, 07:22:59 pm hey guys,. i've problem here.. im using AVG antivirus to protect my pc.. but now it doesnt recognize the latest virus.. even they update daily..
which Antivirus are u prefer to use for protected? just give it name.. not a link.. ;D Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: Jithin on September 11, 2007, 07:35:44 pm nod32 is a good one (compromise between performance and usage of system resource). But its not free..
Norton and McAfee eat lots of system resource. AVG and Avast are the free ones,but as you said not that effective.. Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: error398 on September 11, 2007, 08:02:35 pm ok i'll try soon.. thanks :)
Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: motomaniacs on September 11, 2007, 08:41:45 pm i'm using nod32...it's great antivirus....

maybe some virus will detect with some antivirus.. it happens to me last month.. Norton Antivirus cannot detect Autolt.vbs Avg can detect it.. now i have that same virus.. AVG cannot detect Autolt.vbs.. its so strange. maybe the virus is update LOL i wanna try to use BitDefender or Nod32 ;) Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: Jithin on September 11, 2007, 09:17:04 pm I use Avast + Counterspy (lol,I made a datehack ;) )..
Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: Exploited on September 11, 2007, 09:56:50 pm I've tried a lot in my experience. I have the following conclusions for myself:
1. Never use Norton AntiVirus, because it will slow down your system terribly 2. Nod32 is very weak, if not incapable, in catching spyware/adware, but it advertises it 3. F-Prot is very friendly antivirus program and one of my favourites, but it catches viruses only - no spyware/adware 4. Avast is average quality 5. AVG is more than very good, but I don't like the interface 6. Kaspersky, like NAV, is taking a lot of resources 7. Trend Micro is average too Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: error398 on September 11, 2007, 10:13:53 pm I've tried a lot in my experience. I have the following conclusions for myself: - Norton is very suck.. it takes a lot of memory1. Never use Norton AntiVirus, because it will slow down your system terribly Quote 2. Nod32 is very weak, if not incapable, in catching spyware/adware, but it advertises it - never use this AntivirusQuote 3. F-Prot is very friendly antivirus program and one of my favourites, but it catches viruses only - no spyware/adware - i didnt notice this is Antivirus.. its freeware version or shareware version??Quote 4. Avast is average quality - avast more bout skin and interface.. not good enought for AntivirusQuote 5. AVG is more than very good, but I don't like the interface - im satisfied too.. its faster but the virus definition was expired quicklyQuote 6. Kaspersky, like NAV, is taking a lot of resources - not working with that..Quote 7. Trend Micro is average too - i never used it ;)Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: motomaniacs on September 11, 2007, 10:51:58 pm so what antiviruses do you use phil?
Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: Exploited on September 12, 2007, 10:44:27 pm Currently I am trying McAffee... It's hard to find working antivirus for Vista :)
P.S. F-Prot is maybe the first antivirus program for PC :) Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: pizzadox619 on September 14, 2007, 03:31:03 am I don't use AV bcoz i lazy to update it. hehe... (very" slow like dial-up)
So far my computer is safe... no more virus. Only bluescreen (i don't know about it) only PCMAV & Killer Machine for local indonesian virus (ex: brontok) Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: Exploited on September 14, 2007, 07:03:10 am Usually you "think you don't have virus" :)
Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: Jithin on September 14, 2007, 07:25:26 am lol.. Right said Phil.. I didn't use any antivirus for a while thinking I'm safe. Realised the fact soon while my firefox closed unexpectedly with a stupid message to use Internet explorer ;D
And BTW,does anyone use McAfee site advisor? Its too good.. Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: Exploited on September 14, 2007, 09:46:40 am The most annoying thing is the adware... aaahhh I hate to see ads and popups on every link I click :)
Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: error398 on September 14, 2007, 06:16:56 pm The most annoying thing is the adware... aaahhh I hate to see ads and popups on every link I click :) for AntiSpyware, i am using AdAware professional SE.. its a free.. easy tracking bad cookies ;) otherwise can use Spybot.. @pizzadox if u didnt install antivirus.. the virus maybe didnt make a trouble for a while bcoz u dont have a firewall to block them but after a couple of weeks, the virus will spread and stay into ur system folder.. just wait and see.. ur computer will come unstable.. ;) Im iT technician. Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: pizzadox619 on September 14, 2007, 08:59:21 pm @exploited

Post by: keaglez on May 03, 2011, 04:04:34 am Installed Avast, but never actually using it - it's not activated either. They just slow down the computer... So have it installed just in case I need the scanner. ;D
Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC? Post by: Exploited on May 04, 2011, 11:33:03 am Lots of USB flash cards are infected with "autorun" viruses. They are a lot of hassle. If you get information from other sources than your regular internet sites... antivirus is still "a must" :)

I also installed Sandboxie, so I could run an untrusted application that I downloaded safely. :) Title: Re: Which Antivirus are u prefer for PC?
