Of the products on the market today for straight antivirus protection, I'd have to go with PC World's recommendation, BitDefender.\n\nhttp://www.pcworld.com/reviews/article/0,aid,124475,00.asp\n\nThat, in combination with good antispyware, a firewall, and protection against registry alterations and rootkits, will provide your PC with layers of effective defense, as opposed to using a single product that, if compromised, would leave your PC defenseless.

Norton antivirus is the best.\nWe've had no viruses in the last 10 years

McAfee AntiVirus and Norton Security Suite are both excellent, but they are HUGELY expensive ($100+), and they clog up your computer's speed. McAfee also offers a free standalone tiny antivirus tool called AVERT Stinger, but it's not that great. Don't even bother.\n\nYou can get free antivirus software online, and some of it is very good.  I personally use AVG Free Edition from Grisoft, which uses very little memory and is very good, although it runs an update every day. Other people prefer Avast! Home edition because it looks cool. However, it's really not all that good. Still more people prefer AntiVir XP, which is an EXCELLENT antivirus scanner, but uses more memory than AVG. \n\nHowever, to ensure that your computer is 100% safe, pair your antivirus software with some spyware and adware blockers too. Try downloading AdAware SE from Lavasoft, Spyware Blaster, and Spyware: Search and Destroy. All are excellent and will help keep your computer very safe, all for free. Remember to update them...\n\nAll of the software mentioned can be found at http://www.majorgeeks.com\n\nP.S. JibberJabber is wrong. PC Magazine rated free antivirus suites, and all of them, particulary AntiVir, had excellent catch rates. Although they aren't quite as good as paid solutions, you can use other software in conjunction with your antivirus software to make your PC safe.

For Anti-Spyware I have found that no one program is the best. I use Microsoft AntiSpyware and Spybot: Search and Destroy. Both have easy interfaces and get the job done.

BitDefender Free is the only other free AV I know of besides AVG, Avast and Antivir:\nhttp://www.bitdefender.com/bd/site/products.php?p_id=24\n\nHowever, it doesn't include a real time monitor like the others, so it's not as highly recommended.  Only run one AV with real time protection at a time.\n\nAd-Aware is a great program but isn't an antivirus, but an anti-spyware.  To clean up and prevent infections nowdays you need a good antivirus, a few antispywares and a firewall.\n\nFor some good advice on keeping your PC secure, read this:\nhttp://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial82.html

Yep, Avast antivirus is excellent antivirus software. Besides, it's free. I'm using it now, also tried Norton Antivirus (worked fine but cased some problems with network), Dr. Web. As for antispyware&#92;malware and a firewall I use Privacy Expert but there are a lot of other solutions.

Four programs, yes, all four of them (Google them):\n\nAdaware SE Personal\nSpybot Search and Destroy\nMS AntiSpyware Beta\nSpywareBlaster\n\nIf you are also interested in free antivirus software check out AVG Free, http://free.grisoft.com/

As two other people have pointed out, AVG is great and free.\n\nJust stay away from Symantec --it slows down your computer tremendously.

Go to grisoft.com and download AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition.  It's a respectable AV Program, especially for free.  \n\nFor spyware, go to safer-networking.org and download SpyBot Search & Destroy 1.4.  This is also a free program, and very powerful.\n\nIf you're not looking to install software, go to trendmicro.com, and use their website-based scanner.

when you're talking about internet security, which comprises antivirus and antispyware programs, as well as firewall security.\n\nyou can't hardly find an all-in-one solution, and even if there are quite some that's available, you can't still get a full protection. it's still best to install @ least these 3 different standalone programs.\n\nAntivirus - go for Avast 4.7 Home Edition (free)\nAntispyware - go for Spyware Terminator 1.4 (free)\nFirewall - go for ZoneAlarm 6.5 (free)\n\nyou can all find these in www.freewarefiles.com and www.download.com\n\ngood luck!

It depends upon your needs and perspective. Here is a list of the anti virus programs that I have used:\n\n1. Norton Antivirus\n2. Bit Defender\n3. McAfee Antivirus\n4. AVG Antivirus Free\n\nNow, if you don't want to spend any bucks and still want to get antivirus protection, then I suggest you go with AVG which you can download from www.grisoft.com \n\nIf you prefer to use paid antivirus protection (I highly suggest this), then I recommend you go with Norton Antivirus.\n\nNorton Antivirus is extremely user friendly and cathces most of the virus. But test reports show that BitDefender can catch more infections than Norton, but it is not very user friendly. I am currently using BitDefender. \n\nSo there you go. You have to choose between Norton or BitDefender.\n\nHere are some useful links:\n\nNorton Antivirus Review: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=ie7&rls=com.microsoft:en-US&ie=utf8&oe=utf8&q=Norton+Antivirus+Review\nBitDefender Review: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=ie7&rls=com.microsoft:en-US&ie=utf8&oe=utf8&q=bitdefender+review\n\nYou might also be interested in:\n\nhttp://www.gamersworldbd.com\nhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/gamers-world_bd/\nhttp://gamersworldbd.blogspot.com\nhttp://exchangestation.gamersworldbd.com
