Kaspersky is good in detections and disinfection..so is NOD32.

NOD32 is much liter, doesnt use much resource.

But then i say kaspersky is for beginners and NOD32 is for advance users.

The antivirus can only be as good as the user it self. If they know how to configure it well, they get the best protection.

Are you sure? I'd rather peg Kaspersky for advanced users. NOD32 gave me little to no trouble when it was installed in the office network. Whereas Kasperky caused noticeable network slowdowns when installed. In fact, Kaspersky requires more time to configure than NOD32

AVG is useless. When u use avg same as u use nothing. I have do some experiment on antivirus, i tried Avg, avira and avast. i test each antivirus with locknut (simple phone virus but dangerous to mobilephone). and my result is Avast is no 1. Avira is the sec and the loser will be the useless avg.

Reason i'm not using avg:
-cant detect locknut smile.gif

Reason i'm not using avira:
-lack of security such as protecting instant messenger.

Reason i'm choose avast:
-got many security such as p2p, instant messenger sheild.
-all time protection.
-scanning startup and running program each time i open it.
-and many more.....

AVG Free Edition... been using it for more than 3 years !

It does a 'live search scan' on Google, when you do a search in Google, it puts a 'green tick' to the right of the search results which are non-malicious, and 'red X' to those malicious sites.

I love AVG and will always... AVG + Vista = Virus free !
70 Million Users And Counting !!   biggrin.gif

AVG Free will run fine on Vista, but only offers base level protection only, no Anti-Rootkit protection for example.

I use Kaspersky IS2009 on a Vista 64 bit PC myself, and alongside Eset's NOD32, I reckon it's joint top for both low system resource usage and protection level.

PS. if you use internet banking, they often offer free AV for one year via a download link on their site. I personally use Barclays, and got Kaspersky 2009 Internet Security Suite with a 3 pc license for twelve months for free smile.gif icon_idea.gif
