Hi I came to think that the anti-virus that I'm currently using,AVG Free,does not come with enough protection.So I want to use another anti-virus software..

Is Kaspersky Internet Security good and reliable?If I choose this,I must uninstall AVG first before installing this right?

yes..u need to remove AVG 1st before installing a new AV

mind to share how AVG not enuf protection?

Instead on buying or going kaspersky trial, try Avira or Avast 5 (free one), or even MSE.... smaller download size....

@TiF, a good place to start is http://www.av-comparatives.org ... for others, ask unker Gugel....

my question to TS is, how is AVG not enough protection? I've been using it on some of my pc for n-years and not a time my pc was infected by virus/malware.

i personally recommend (free one): avira, panda and bitdefender.....

Ah I see,thanks.

But I plan to get a antivirus that needs to be paid,between Kaspersky Internet Security and ESET NOD32,which is better?Or recommend others if you think it's gud.

Either one is good or Norton 2010 is also good choice

Either of it,all have good,complete and competitive protection.

yes, u wil require to uninstall ur AVG free 1st b4 u install another antivirus.
for free antivirus, i would suggest avast, avira, or MSE, for paid version, go for nod32 or NIS, kaspersky internet security is not bad.

Better go for Avast! 5 Free ..

File/Web/Mail/IM/P2P/Network/Behavorial Shield

Pair it up with the built in Windows Vista/7 Firewall it would be like an Internet Security oredi

BTW, there's no perfect AV/IS .. So you may keep MalwareBytes Anti Malware in your PC to scan ur system once a month/if you feel ur PC infected just in case the AV/IS missed anything.. It doesn't provide real-time protection so won't consume any resource.

been using kaspersky internet security for 3 yrs , very comprehensive protection , thumbs up for this fabulous antivirus suite

which of them using less memory... currently use symantec... felt that this AV to resource hunger

from my experience, esetnod uses the the least memory while giving satisfactory protection, it would be a good choice if you want to change your av

AFAIK, avira, avast, or MSE

U using Windows? Original? If yes, try Microsoft Security Essentials

i will suggest u ESET NOD32 antivirus...

i've used it since 2006 till now.

Avira has the highest detection rate in town.

and with a lot of false detection. For instance if I start to tamper some memory location or some dll file it thinks its a virus and blocks it.

has been using Kaspersky for years. It works well for me.

Hi Prasys,

not entirely true if you check the Feb 2010 FP report.
http://www.av-comparatives.org/images/stor...report25_fp.pdf

Avira has superb detection with lower FP now.




Avira successfully lowered their FP this year. GOOD JOB!
