Looking for new antivirus software...

[RizlaUK]

I agree, BitBefender is pretty good, im currently using it as i got a free six month license with some PC magazine, seems pretty robust and has not let me down yet

[salim594]

i recommend bitdefender total security 2011 its amazing but it is NOT FREE

[infinityscape]

personally i recommend the following products:

Microsoft Security Essentials (http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials)
Panda Cloud Antivirus (http://www.cloudantivirus.com)
BitDefender 2010 (http://www.bitdefender.co.uk)

RED - Not FREE
Green - FREE

i have tried many antivirus products and the ones above are definatly ones i recommend

Alternativly you could always try this:

I don't think my pc is gonna have this kind of relations with a modem, but, just to be sure it'll be fine, I'll try also this way
OK, today is the day to decide between avast and nod32. Avast worked fine but also nod32 done a good work... it's really difficult to choose. Can't I use them together ?

Anyway, I think avast is the best choice for me, I like it and seems to work fine. In future, I may use Nod32 if avast won't do its work.

Thankyou all for suggestions and help!

It's also hard to justify its price ...

if you got online banking with Barclays its free (full package here in the UK)...

That's where i get it from ..
A 12 month 3-user licence in addition to a mobile version for cell phones :yes

I would recommend Kasperky 2010, if you got online banking with Barclays its free (full package here in the UK). I've never had any issues and it seems fast when scanning. It uses under 2 meg of resources when running in the back ground (whether this is any good i dont know ). Alternativly you could always try this:

Yes, I too recommend NOD32. I kept forever hearing nothing but good things about it for years, then finally got around to trying it. It's both light on system-resources and extremely thorough ... very little gets through the noddy-filter.

Indeed, it's a stubborn bastard

I have never had problems like that with NOD32, the moment I installed it
and it started, it found lots of infected files Since then, I never had a
virus again (that's years back lol).

Good luck on the test :yes

you knowingly surf infected site ?

I guess there are ways, like googling for "Free Trojan Horse Download" ?

kaspersky used to be one of the best, but it has grown increasingly bloated and other tools have surpassed it in the past couple years IMO. It's also hard to justify its price vs. other tools with av engines that perform as well or better in comparitive tests.

i made a comment along that line in another thread, just after vista was launched kaspersky rebuilt there engine, after that it was never the same, thats when i ditched it, had ESET (NOD32 is at the core of ESS4) ever since and have been happy with it so far

after surfing around virus unfree sites

you knowingly surf infected site ?

Today I'll install NOD32 and this will be the last antivirus I'll try. For now, the only problem was with E.SS4 wich didn't blocked some viruses and they entered in my pc. Hope this wont happen with NOD32.

This sounds bad for E.SS4... after surfing around virus unfree sites where some downloads were blocked before completion, I did a full pc scan. It found 3 trojans in my pc... this didn't happened with avast.. for now, avast remains the better choice.

Kaspersky it's a good antivirus but I've already tried it and I think is too slower. Thanks anyway for suggestion Derek
Now I've installed E.SM4 and I'm gonna try it as same as for avast.
