oneless Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 I think that my opinion and 99% other opinionsare just subiective .I use NAV , packed in NIS , so I am happy with itBut I don't test enough other packs , so really don't count my opinion.Also I know people who blame NAV200x only because they use another product !!?or because they heard from some that NAV is bad !really ?on the other hand this days an antivirus without a proper firewall !??
KJxp Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 I've had Norton all my computer's life, and it has never stopped a virus. But then again, I've never had a virus try to get in that it missed either.

Aero Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 I use NOD32 on my computers, its quite nice. I havnt had anything slip by it yet and it has saved me quite a few times.
dman Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 AVG. I put it on all of my home customers computers. Don't know really if it is "Better" than the others, but it works well and is FREE for home use. Also it updates itself with no problems. I have had troubles with symantec liveupdate and also with mcaffee update.I also use AntiVir on my UBCD4WIN BartPE boot disk and it also works well.
andrewpayne Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 Symantec Anti Virus Corporate v9 has ZERO competition...! (Never had any probs with LiveUpdate)However - I DETEST Norton Internet Security with a vengeance - steer well clear! Once on always on (bit like AOL?!)
Marthax Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 I don't know what you guys like about Norton Antivirus. It takes up a lot of resources, it can't handle many viruses, it is the most common antivirus program and therefore the most attacked one. When a virus is detected and Norton cannot remove it, it starts popping up the same stupid message over and over again. This can become very annoying as it disturbs and won't go away. It has many different services that runs in the background which causes high CPU usage and can decrease your overall system performance. Seriously, I've used this program for a couple of years til I found out that antivirus programs such as NOD and Kaspersky existed and since then, Norton has never been an option to me. So, what's so good with it?
maddawgz Posted April 27, 2005 Posted April 27, 2005 Norton suck's the life jucies outa pc's!! I'ts detection isnt that great imho!! I've seen heaps slip past it..type in google AV comparisons or go here..http://www.wilderssecurity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=48WIlders is great forumI personally use pc cillian .suite with firewall easy set and leave!!! Hotmail now use Trend..Also Avg free is ok but download another virus scanner and run it..see if u have anything??.... Nod32 is supposed to be the best..MD
