Besides Norton what is the best antivirus software? I've had nothing but problems with Norton. I've thought about AVG but I've heard some bad reviews about them. So what is the best?
The Best Free Virus protection is:
Microsoft Security Essentials
MSE provides real-time protection for your PC that guards against viruses, spyware, and other malicious software.
They know all of the Windows processes inside and out. The anti-virus is lightweight and free. You can install this software package and not need to worry anymore.
Besides, they build the OS. I think they owe it to consumers to protect it.
Microsoft Security Essentials is a free download from Microsoft.
The Best Free Firewall protection is:
Comodo Pro (firewall)
More user friendly option:
ZoneAlarm (firewall) simpler to use and requires less setting up then Comodo Pro
All available from download.com
I recently removed my McAfee firewall and installed Comodo Pro, its tbest free antivirus softwarehe best firewall I've ever used and comes top in leaktests (see below) if after installing Comodo you get too many warnings turn the defence + setting to clean computer or off, its has nothing to do with the firewall part of Comodo it simply monitors system changes.
You can run any realtime anti-spyware program with an antivirus program and it will not conflict. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware works well with antivirus programs, provided that you get the free version, which doesn't have real-time protection. There's a chance of bad interactions with antivirus programs if MBAM's real-time protection is turned on. Install the free version, then update it and run scans occasionally.
Would also recommend that you use a safer browser like Mozilla Firefox.
Install the McAfee SiteAdvisor add-on - when searching for something using yahoo, google or msn, it displays either a green tick (safe site), yellow exclamation mark (use with care) obest free antivirus softwarer a red cross (dangerous site) next to every result.
Always keep your Windows, web browser and Java software up to date - frequent patches are released to plug security holes.
(Don't use AntiVir, some people recommended Avira AntiVir to me so I removed Microsoft Security Essentials and installed AntiVir but I could not get it to update, the forums are full of people having the same problem)
The Absolute BEST is ""Kaspersky PURE Total Security"" which has
Anti-Virus, Malware, and spyware protection
Everything=all in one.
Good Luck..D
I also recommend Microsoft Security Essentials (antivirus) and Malwarebytes (malware scanner and blocker).
This is the new version (1.51.0.1200) of Malwarebytes:
See this list. AVG tops.
The Big 3:
Avast
Avira
Avg
Those are the best free ones.
hello
The best? Microsoft security essentials
hope it helped
