AVS - Kaspersky Engine = Perfect. (Well, Almost)
Resource Hog = Use up A LOT of RAM/Memory. Thus, Computer lags/Slows down. No doubt, AV uses Processing Power. So, it naturally is a Processing Hogger. That goes to ALL AVs. Undeniable. Cheers! |

BD v10 was disappointing. Slower than Kaspersky 5.xx.xx Series. My opinion. And it just gave the same amount of Detections. Kaspersky earn my vote.
QUOTE But some claims that AVG is light version thus will not lag down pc. Processor Hogger and Memory Hogger are 2 different things.  In this age of time, Most computers would have outlived the 500Mhz Processor Timeline. In fact, quite a number of forumers are in 1Ghz and higher. AV Hogging Processing power is no longer an issue, and in fact, you can't feel it. The DIFFERENCE is that Memory Hogging is a BIG Issue. Windows XP uses a lot of RAM. If the AV uses a lot of RAM, the user will have no more RAM. So, Lag. Period. AVG and NOD32 are light weight. Period. Why? They don't take much RAM.  Cheers! |

Been using Mcafee so far and I'm happy with it. Detects the virus almost instantly at least for my case
