Antivir is a very good program. I believe it is made in Germany but is written in English. I have it installed and haven't had any problems since installation two years ago. Also it offers an update every 14 days. The big plus is that it is a fully functioning program and is a free download. Type Antivir in your browser or on Google.com and it should come up in the search results.

For antivirus you can use AntiVir (free, free-av.com). I use Norton on my main computer, but it isn’t free. Other free options include AVG and Avast. You should also occasionally scan your computer with Trend Micro HouseCall (free online virus scanner, housecall.trendmicro.com), just to be safe. Don’t install more than one antivirus program on your computer; however you can use an online virus scanner while an antivirus program is installed on your computer.\n\nUse Ad-Aware (free, lavasoft.com) for antispyware. It will protect you from spyware and adware.\n\nUse ZoneAlarm (free, zonelabs.com) for a firewall.\n\nAlso, use Mozilla Firefox (free, mozilla.com) as your web browser. It is not only more secure than Internet Explorer, but much faster, easier to use, more customizable… the list goes on.

Just use an anti-virus program. A good free anti-virus program is Grisoft's AVG. It can be found at http://free.grisoft.com/

There is no such. I needed to re-install my PC just a few days ago and when I made a connection to Internet it was flooded with worms. I thought my PC-Cilin antivirus was good enough, but it couldn’t protect me. I downloaded AVG, Avast!, Ad-Aware, SpyBot… etc., and all of them found something. I recommend you to have numerous software to protect you.

Hi there,\n\nInstead of all these "Mine is better than yours" answers that go on around here, I'll instead answer with the facts.\n\nLooking at current protection ratings, AVG scores a lowly 90% protection against all known viruses, whilst Avast comes in at 92%. This means they are letting through roughly one in every ten viruses - pretty shocking.\n\nNorton and McAfee are slightly better by protecting against 98.3% and circa 97% respectfully of all known viruses. However, Norton and McAfee can be known for being very heavy programs which can tend to slow down certain machines. If you are thinking of installing either of these I would definitely recommend you download their free trial to check it does not affect your machine in this way prior to opening your wallet.\n\nIf you would be interested in other Security products that are better than all of these, you should try either Prevx1, Kaspersky or F-Secure who all score over a 99% protection rating.\n\nOut of these three my recommendation would be Prevx1, as this is the quickest at protecting against new outbreaks of malware.

scan for virus with antivirus. I recommend AVG (http://www.grisoft.com/ ) or Avast (http://www.avast.com/ ). Try also scan for malware, in case there is one I recommend Ad-Aware (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ ), Spybot SD (http://www.safer-networking.org/ ), or Ewido (http://www.ewido.com/ )

Please visit www.grisoft.com for widely known Free AVG antivirus software. Its very gud software and it wont slow the processing speed of your computer. I also suggest you to weekly visit http://safety.live.com and run a "Full Service Scan" on your computer. This is Microsoft's newly launched online scan to detect and remove viruses, spywares, trojans etc.. Its very effective and reliable. Also, download Windows Defender beta 2 from www.microsoft.com and u will be protected from any spywares or spams. Keep updating your Windows Security Updates and u will find yourself well protected from any harmful threats.\nThanks!

Better install some antivirum applications like NORTON ANTIVIRUS, McCafe..... and Install POP-UP blockers also which will also protect ur system from being infected from unwanted downloads which is liley to have virus applications.\n\nAlso, better ensure the system is scanned everytime u start your PC.. It may take additional time to boot, but will be recommended usage.

Well... no free Anti-Virus is perfect...\n\nAvast is decent, and has alot of features but it's SLOW and detection isn't that great.\n\nAntiVir Classic offers Active Guard  but no email guard and it sometimes has false detections for trojans.\n\nAVG offers On-Demand scanning and Email but it doesn't open archives and can only select the files most likely to be infected.\n\nBitDefender is a very trusted Anti-virus and offers a free version, but it doesn't have active guard.\n\nClamWin is ok and opensourced.. but you have to set it to auto remove things, and it doesn't have active scanner unless you go to Sourceforge.net and download WinPooch to use with it.\n---\n\nPersonally I use AntiVir as my active guard and Bitdefender \n\nFree as my On-demand back up scanner...And Portableapps.com \n\nClamWin for my USB so I can take a AntiVirus with me as I go.
