Which AntiVirus do you use?
I have been using different antivirus softwares.
the free ones ofcourse
like Avast Home
and Avg Free etc
but i am satisfied with non of them.
i do use window Defender from microsoft as an antispyware thats nice though.
Do you have any suggestions in this matter

I use Kaspersky...
I have it downloaded from P2P web sites and is working just fine (and I didn't payed nothing for it)
I'm useing it at home so there's nothing to worry about.
Anyway, I think this is the best antivirus program ever.
IMO, for home users, P2P web sites are gold mines.
Cheers!

Latest Mcafee AV seems to be sweet for me 
Some of the free ones are good but my personal preference is Mcafee and used them for a few years now.

AVG to be honest i've never had any problems with it and I don't encounter bad programs as I don't download or visit un-known links.

I used to use AVG free but when I signed up to my new ISP I got 12 months free with McAfee so I use that now.

i personally loved the way Avira Antivir treated my PC and killed all the brontoks, and its very light and the update is a small chunk of not more than a 2-600 kb of a file so its lovely.
But its not getting rid of those viruses that came from friend's flash drives and that virus ( i donno the name) has disabled my Task Manager and not showing folder options as well as turned my PC very slow, can you tell me what Antivirus to use for that so that it fully disinfects it from there effect and not make me re-install Windows onto my PC????
Please let me know
Thanks
Khushal

You can get a full version (plus lifetime updates) of Norton AntiVirus FREE in the GooglePack. Just found that out the other day. Not sure if posting the link is appropriate, but I'm sure you can 'google it'.

Guys, I don't use any AntiVirus etc. And my PC runs without any problem. Why? Because I am on Linux only. I LOVE Tux  . |
