Avira. Does it's job and it isn't annoying like AVG that blocks everything.

Which reminds me, I have to download it, have been without an Antivirus for a week.

Norton is standard installed with most of the computers, so did I have a 1 year license, still got it xD....

My granddad has got that Norton 360 on his computer, reasons why I never go on it.

I use Avast Internet Security, paid one, Moved to it after McAfee, KasperSky , Panda Cloud and NOD32/ESET one, Simply because Avast is easy and doesn't make my computer slow, Btw, try doing in depth check with NOD32, It recognizes itself as potentially unwanted harmful program. That was funny. :rofl: :rofl:

Using your brain isn't good enough in these times
Now of days hackers can pay software developers to put their malicious programs into their programs

Always been using McAfee

You all PAY for your antivirus? If I've bought off from AVG in the past, why buy again? :)

Don't crack a anti-virus. NEVER do that.

Instead, try Comodo or AVG Free, both are working fine.

It's your best pick if you're on Windows 7.

I've used Norton in the past. It really looks like it's great defense and all but it's only functional from the outside. Kaspersky would be what I'd still love to use had I the chance to renew the license that has been expired for about 5 years now. :P

Uh, what is a Anti-Virus ?

LOL'd at this option. :lol:

Currently using Avira, since that's what the technician put when he reformatted. Will update to another Antivirus when I have time. :roll:

Using AVG right now, been happy with it so far, and is still one of the more recommended (free) ones out there.

Post by: Rick. on April 19, 2012, 12:30:52 am
Norton all the way.

Post by: Julio. on April 19, 2012, 12:43:09 am
I'm convinced Microsoft Security Essentials has the most features of a free anti-virus.

My local IT store swears by:

Microsoft Security Essentials - XP
AVG Free- Vista + 7
Kaspersky - Best Antivirus that you pay for



Norton in my experience bogs down your PC like a rabbit in elephant turd  :devroll:

In regards to what I actually use, I use nothing. Let me put forward my argument:

1. Nothing important is done on my PC
2. Scans and updates are annoying
3. I do what I want without Antivirus blocking it
4. If theres an issue, I re-install the operating system from scratch, format the disc, reinstall

Plus Antivirus never seems to block anything anyway, the only program I actually have is Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, it's FANTASTIC!

Uh, depends, if you're a nerd hardcore downloader, yes.

If not, no.
Title: Re: [POLL] Which Anti-Virus do you use ?
Post by: memphisraines on May 25, 2012, 01:24:54 am
I used to use ESET SS but now I'm using AVG IS with Malwarebytes on standby in case AVG can't detect something. Have never had problems with either, and neither have let anything slip through.

I use norton and McAfee internet security.

You should never use more than one AV at once. Can cause false positives and other bad things. If Norton came on your PC and it's outdated (which it probably is), uninstall it and only use McAfee.

Isn't that really bad for your PC?

Yes, point-blank. Just because you're not a "nerd hardcore downloader" doesn't mean you shouldn't have some type of protection. Think of it like sex. If a girl tells you she's not a slut hardcore sex freak does that mean you won't put a raincoat on? Think of AV as a condom for your PC. You have to protect your PC when you put it in the internet (pun intended xD).

The only exception to this is Linux.  :)

Mac also, it got a security system inside the OS itself.

Unfortunatly, you need to pay for it :)

Mac is just commercial UNIX, right. Macs/Linux-powered machines can't really get infected but can instead be used as carriers for Windows viruses to spread them from one Windows PC to another.
