microsoft security essentials never fails me

i think all of u can take a look at this......
RAP test from VB100

thanks to you, now I know that AVG really sucks. Poor Czech programmers. I'll try Trustport later.

AVG hav been suck for darn long time bro....im boycott using it

but got to respect, AVG is the only company that has free antivirus software, with all around protection. well don't count support. Free software aren't supposed to get support anyways.

i think its da first 1 that hav free version rite?

btw...i will never use AVG...as it make a damn big mistake while i using it...it corrupt my OS...not just me but several ppl too

I do not have good experience with the AVG.

I prefer bit defender free edition when it comes to free AV.

hehe...im using EAV + comodo firewall...i think this is good enough.

anyway, i suggest avast+ comodo if u looking for free AV.
btw, if u can understand chinese, i can recommend QIHOO and Keniu to you. BOTH OF THEM ARE FREE, as u can c, theire RAP test result is quite good enough.

Qihoo(360) is using bitdefender engine + their own cloud engine, 2 engine.
Keniu is using kaspersky and their own cloud engine, also 2 engine.
here is a latest test in China（PCHOMG电脑之家）,quite detailed， c can take a look.

lets c the ram usage part,


and this is when u r scaning virus



anyway, CPU usage is more important.

Trustport is using Norman engine with different GUI and no other modification. How can it be so much different?

VB100 cannot be trusted.

as i know, trustport is using 4engine:AVG,NORMAN,BitDefender,ewido.

anyway what i recommend is eset nod32.
if free one i suggest Qihoo

Im not quite sure, previously me also using Avira, no complaint etc. Now Im running on Server 2008 & looking for free AV. So, I try AVG 2011 & to my surprises, it can run. I havent try others yet since AVG already installed & running. AFAIK, free edition AV wont run on server platform coz of licensing issue..

ah AVG 2011 Free seems to have improved after so many years..

what makes u say so? AVG has been quite sucky these yrs

That statistics is not accurate at all. Shouldn't ESET CPU usage is so high while idle. But those china program(exclude 360) is really quite lousy la. 360 nowadays is also waste resources, even its forum also say like that.

Polish Tank? Poland just starting to replace their indigenous tanks with other Western Tank such as the Leopard Tanks.

Back to the topic.

I still prefer using the proven technology for now like Kaspersky. I might try out that later. Thanks for sharing.

I dont use any of those : 8

Ok, now I have changed to Avira free AV + Comodo free firewall... Quite a good combination...

Comodo Internet Security Premium Free is good Currently playing around with it hehehe..

using norton antivirus, and my PC is sending spam mail to all my contacts!!!

numerous updates and rescan still couldn't find the virus\malware...
