It's not true that using an anti-virus causes your internet to run slow. In fact, they are very separate. You need an anti-virus on your computer so it doesn't crash and it runs at top speed. Now, there are several you can choose from: Avast, AVG or Comodo. Those are the ones I recommend the most! Also, they are both free downloads. I will tell you, when you download Comodo, if you have Yahoo! Messenger, it will make it freeze- or atleast that's what it did to mine. So I would choose either Avast, AVG (which I have now) or Comodo.

I used comodo as a firewall, avast as an antivirus, and search and destroy for spyware adn they are all free had no problems for a long while and to make sure everything goes smoothly play around with the settings.

if you want an anti virus that is light and effective as well and free the AVG 8.0 will be the best for you and it has got all what you can expect from a premium anti virus and free too. i use it myself along with the genuine Norton Anti virus and you can download Avg anti virus from download.com for free.it won't cause your internet speed to lower and works in the background mode. hope this helps. good luck

NOD32. It was cheap and requires only 2MB to work. Which means your computer won't slowdown by it. If you want a freeware antivirus, try AVAST, which is a free and reliable program and got somany positive feedbacks.

I would recommend you use microsoft's windows live one care. You can try their 120 days trial but believe me it keeps your system healthy, it removes viruses, spyware and can even detect hackers software. I thought it was like any normal anti-virus or anti-spyware until one day it detected a hacker sotware hidden in music files i was downloading.it removed it before i could even install the software. maybe the sad thing about it is that you need to install it online, meaning you don't have to download it, you install it online

You can find it here http://onecare.live.com and you'll need to spend atleast 2 hours installing it if you use modem connection or 30 minutes if you on fast internet connection
