: Best/Favorite Anti-Virus Software Rosshole 09-04-2007, 07:41 PM What does everyone use? I am looking for good anti-virus software (prefferably freeware). is there one program that can do it all well? do I need 4 programs? Firewall? and other home PC security suggestions?? :tmyk: Kooldino 09-04-2007, 07:46 PM Avast! Antivirus is good, AVG is alright. Both are free. As fore firewalls, I used to use ZoneAlarm, but I eventually switched to Kerio. Both ended up causing issues, so now I run neither. Rosshole 09-04-2007, 07:46 PM how important are firewalls? (on a home pc) Kooldino 09-04-2007, 07:47 PM Well, it's important to have one, but XP has a built in firewall which is better than nothing. Mr. Win 09-04-2007, 07:51 PM I don't run one. Mem Hogs. Rosshole 09-04-2007, 07:55 PM is it worth paying for Anti-Virus software? Kooldino 09-04-2007, 10:06 PM I don't run one. Mem Hogs. :fail: Avast is pretty good at not being a mem hog. AVG used to be as well, but they bloated up a tad lately. Still no norton though. eldredbucknor 09-27-2011, 11:39 AM The best antivirus software is AVG 2011. Its new features are very nice and easy to use. It removes every virus from the computer and make computer free from virus. It is also removes most common virus like Torjan and autorun.inf and also protect against internet virus. AVG 2011 is really great and most useful antivirus software. | |
