Hmm... are you blaming AVG for free software? Don't underestimated free software dude

I'll go for AVG. Been using for years, and havent add any serious damage done to my comp. Even to my dad who only knows how to use the computer rather than actually taking care of it.

You won't go wrong with AVG.

mine expires in 2016

surely one of the better ones... but it's too secure. your pc lags coz it check each and every file windows accessed.

result? 30+ seconds just for firefox to start. if switched off, it'll take only 2seconds.

Yep! that's why i using AVG. Less ram be needed and space. Best of all, it's free. No need to get "ehem" to prolong the expire date

hello guy if i using avg still need i install Zone Alarm for addition defend spywer?

I second for Sophos Anti Virus. Best fit for organzational network use and central management. Let me know if you need more info.

My vote goes to NOD32. Cheap and good

Erm..no blaming la...
juz say the truth...
u see, AVG UI is very bad and when updating, has a windows pop-up(very annoying) unlike the Avast!, it update sliently.
And AVG antivirus is not so effective( based on most antivirus labs tests) and its respone time too long (avast! and antivir faster).
So if AVG need $$, sure everyone prefer another antivirus....
Anyone using ClamWin, also a antivirus but no real-time protection....

Well, i don't think the what labs test. Personally, any antivirus is good. As long as u using, it much safer. Whether you use whatsoever "best" antivirus, i'm sure if u are "unlucky" any virus can bypass the strong wall u have install.

Different ppl got their different view

Personally, i only install AVG. I don't install what alarm zone or what. Install too many these stuff can make your pc lagg. Cos' use too much RAM!! Like my friend, install so many defend, his winxp also kena spyware or virus mar!! Guess he's bad luck!!

Haha... last time, many years ago I use norton. Looks profesional but quite useless actually. Sometimes or I should say most of the time, it can detect a virus but it can't do anything and at last it got infected and got crazy. Maybe it's just for my computer... And I recently, tested between avast and norton on two similar computer. I loaded a critical virus and avast detected the virus before the virus can be saved into the HDD. But norton did not respond to the virus until 20 seconds later.

NOD32 is the best!

yes, what u mentioned are correct!

True!

I go for avast... coz i can 'see' what is he doing.. and also can customize the UI skins.. The best is the warning alarm when virus detected.. very noisy eh

Avast! !!!!!!!

AVG rulez!!

NOD32 is my ultimate choice!

I'm using Avast... should have a poll here.

agreed.....btw, kinda many NOD32, AVG and Avast av users here.......but kaspersky still the best for me......

kaspersky anti virus personal pro.. been using for almost 1 year.. very good... but at a price... =).. (unless *ahem*)

1. updated database hourly
2. uses low memory
