[SpawnOfAlucard]

i'm a little curious what virus & malware, scanner and removers people use.i use avg anti-virus, pct tools anti-virus ,and spybot search and destroy.so what kinds do you use ^^?

[hieitk]

I only use

well, I started using it about 1 month ago, before that I didn't even had any protection programs =/
I'm just very careful on what to click (best protection)

-edit-
btw is the reason why I use Active Virus Shield and no others antivirus

[sonybaci]

i think nod32 + zone alarm with anti spyware is the perfect combination

[Unknownwho18]

McAfee is one of the best around mate =]

I use the Norton kit of 2005

Mccaffee and norton both just sucks, if you search around in review sites you will see, norton consumes much memory and space while mccaffe just plain sucks. Nod32 + ad aware SE pro + spybot SND + Ccleaner + tuneup 2007 will perfect your computer in every way.

i use norton , hietk ur post made me think about changing antivirus on active shield , can i ask few questions about it? Is it free, does it take much RAM ?

[L3r0y~J3nk1n$]

Active Virus Shield - IMO the best there is...free and powered by Kaspersky, low resource usage

Ad-Aware - free, very good malware scanner

Spybot SD - free, good scanner, can immunize system and provide real-time protection for registry changes

Windows Defender is OK as well.

Zone Alarm sucks. Its the defense solution made for retards with computers. It warns you about every little thing, again and again, you can't make it auto accept stuff. Well you can, but even if you, it still warns you, which is juts plain stupid. And it hogs cpu useage.

Norton just plain sucks. Its worse then zone alarm, overloaded with warnings, low detection ratios and it also hogs cpu useage.

I would recommend Kaspersky, Active Virus sheild, Nod32. Myself, I run Active Virus shield + spybot s&d + Sygate Personal firewall.
