i was usimg kasper and it's the best

but i chang it just to try nod32 and to see how good it is

yeah, they're both pretty much hand-in-hand.

So people don't forget that their e-mails are checked by NOD32? I guess it makes people feel even more comfortable in their pajamas... :P

just trying ... lol

nod install too fast cannot even see the installation...

hope it is as good as the ppl around the forum talking about....

i use avast, its compatible with vista, and i like the boot time scan, its something that i find useful.

Currently I am using McAfee but personally I would have to say Kaspersky is the most affective.

hmmm hard to compare both.. nod / kas

both are strong

why search other av than kaspersky...

it scan and detect all my sfx extract as virus just now........ =)

feeling nod32 is nice

I use AVG - it updates reasonably often, it is light on resources compared to Norton and McAffe (that I have used earlier), and it is free. :D

I am quite aware that it may not be the number one anti-virus, though. If I was to vote for which anti-virus I thought was most secure, and not what I actually use, my reply would be different. I think that the most important measure against malware is to be careful about where you browse and what you download, though. I use Sandboxie in doubtful cases.

Still, combined with a software firewall to control application behaviour, I think AVG is enough. (Well, combined with a few other anti-malware products, such as AdAware, Ewido, Spybot and Spywareblaster, lol.) So far, I haven't had any really bad malware. Some spyware and adware that was difficult to get rid of, yes, but nothing that could cause harm my or others' computers.

To be sure, I am into backup images. If I do get some malware that is more serious than annoying tracking cookies and such, I tend to restore to a clean image rather than wonder if I have really gotten rid of it. ;)

A very good post. Yes, combined with good common sense, a good firewall and using images, AVG isn't too bad. Cheers.

just switched from AVG free to a license of NOD32 :)

also got my dad to buy it as well!

was well impressed with it.

Norman Antivirus works great, Bitdefender is also very good

BIT DEFENDER PROFESSIONAL PLUS v10

Ultimate solution for security against virus and worms

best among rest for Win98 to Win XP

disadvantage : Vista Support not available

//neo_matrix.rs@indiatimes.com//

//Ramesh//

//Pilani//

//INDIA//

had a look of NOD32 and was impressed by the low memory usage.

i have to agree the old versions of NAV used to be ok because i was given a 486 75Mhz 16MB RAM with 98 First Edition on it and the computer wasnt too unstable or slow
