I use system recovery software, so I can go without any AV applications

The latest version of Zone Alarm Security Suite 7.0.408 finally fixes the problem that hangs the PC when shutting down. Its a blessing really. I was getting fedup to have to shutdown it manually each time before shutting the PC. The other thing is the status tab is not 'missing' after a fresh boot.

This PC hangs while shut down already fixed is great.
BUT do you(all) facing the problem with ur PC/Laptop having slow performance ? I not meaning that normal anti-virus software slow down. I means it really HANGS there for few minute when u install somethings, or performing too much application at the same times.

I did't face this kind of problem before i using ZoneAlarm S.S. It only happen while i start bought it and use it on my Laptop. I have wonder is that my Laptop problem or the Suit Problem.. any idea ?

I am OK with Norton 360 plus Norton AntoBot.

geesh...can you really trust what the magazine says??? I've seen reputable mag like PCmag.com get it wrong sometimes(tester have variating testing methodology and can sometimes be unfair/bias). And if you read this type of articles often enough you would notice that the winners are quite usually the usual advertising suspects as well. meaning......great if not brilliant review on page 6, big full colour advert on page 20 for the next 5 issues.

If you are looking for a security software, 30 day trials are available, try it. And if you insist on reading, try Virus Bulletin or av-comparatives.org

ok..but i believe that pcmag..like zonealarm pro...bcoz i using now..so far so good nothing happen ..i ve try zonealarm internet security 6.5 n so far so good but part of av zonealarm using technology from ca company..so av too bad..but ver 7.0 using scan engine kaspersky..i know that virus bulleting n av-comparatives.. ..but that info i give to share with the other friend to benchmark self..coz i benchmark my self...so up to u ..for me part av i think avira antivir personal edition good n easy to use..easy to update DAT manually

Norton is first? I tot bitdefender is the first

well..pcworld benchmark ..u can googling to find review about bitdefender at another web..this info i give to all geng to benchmark self n try it out..u can now which the better.. ..

I use a-squared Free for my office pcs but for my personal laptop, I install Avira. One time I installed Bit Defender in my office pcs, the resultant pc performance is pc damn slow probably because of real time protection. Dunno whether those who install Bit Defender experience this problem?

Anyone has tried Online Armor plus Antivirus (kaspersky engine)? Lots of features from Tell Emu's product....

how spec pc in ur office??..just to know ..

I would like to add K7 Total Security from K7Computing.com


Thanks

bitdefender is the best
