Hi, I have already full of fire with my current antivirus KIS 2010. When it detected other program that like virus, (it is not virus) it auto restart my PC without warning. I very hate this, not that all, the first time I run the update, the update file size about 60++ MB, already updated 2 hours still haven't done...

So I planning to use another antivirus, - Avira. Is it ok? I heard my friend said it quite good... I am also using now, the free version. If good, next year I will change to premium version...

Previously i was using Kaspersky too, it was good during the past.

But recently, the antivirus fail to protect my laptop which caused it get infected by virus.

Then i switched to Avira internet security, it serve me well from the day i bought it till today.

Not to deny, they do have a very low memory consumption which will not slow down my laptop. Therefore, i guess you may give it a try.

Hard to fight 0-day malwares unless you sandbox your system.

KIS 2010 ftw

proud user of KIS for continuous 2 yrs already, nvr disappoint me, and it already saved my pc live a few times in critical moment

both my laplap and deskdesk oso protected by KIS

Hi sanderz,

Drop us an email, we might be able to help u out..

Hi,

You should be able see the difference once you tried both...

ps: I have no complaints about Avira....So far It would get my vote.

I used Karspersky before. Got virus that it can't detect.

Ya, recently it cant detect the autorun.inf virus. But avira able to detect and block it. Kaspersky update took very long time... Why like this?

if paid version might as well u try ESET nod32 or NIS

NOD32 n NIS incomparable to Avira.

Different class.. baby~

often update .. i have no issue with KIS2010 and recently just upgraded to KIS2011 ..

im a KIS supporter

It's no harm to try on Avira or any other products you like. The difference of paid and free version of a same product is just the extra functions. There's no such thing that paid version has better detection rate than free one. They are using the same engine and definition for antivirus program.

i'm using AVAST 5 free now, won't using Avira free anymore.. its failed AV to protect my pc.

sanderz might dunno how to use an antivirus .. my AV is always in good and updated status

not really la...even legit one also update slow..like max 22kb/s here in my case...even my other friends also faces the same problem...

yea it's true.

previously use avira too, but chg to avast free bcos it provides more layer of protection, or i shud say more functions.
btw, avira free is gd too, but i heard quite alot of bad review on ver10 duno whether it's true, n yea, avira alot FP which caused me problem last time.

avira missed some of those worms, even spread from usb drive...switched to MSE and it serves much more better protection now.

Actually, both Avira and NOD32 has almost the same level of detection of new unknown malwares.

Overall, NOD32 managed to get relatively good performance and detection rate.
