Which Anti virus program do you use. I use AVG. I have found that its a very strong and robust anti virus program and it is very light as well. I also use a back up Advanced windows protector software that cleans the registry and makes the computer work faster

Most of the time I use no AntiVirus since I'm on Linux but when I do use Windows I use Avast Home Edition, it's free and it's very powerful, I find it better than the old one I had (Bitdefender).

Mostly i use avast antivirus it is very powerful than other antiviruses and it's free downloaded form internet. Mostly other antiviruses are not freely available and when they are installed they are time consuming i.e when they are installed the speed of computer get affected. iam also trying the other anti like kaspersky coridoire etc

I use AVG too. It is free and good enough for me, so why not? I always scan my computer periodically to make sure it is free of viruses. ;-)

That sounds good for you! Well, I am currently using Avira AntiVir Personal Classic Edition. I have been using this one for over a longer period of time. Since using this software, I have never had problems at all with regards to the overall system, function, and performance of my computer. Otherwise, I am very satisfied and impressed with its overall performance. It updates regularly and can be scheduled anytime you want or at your most convenient time. It is very light on resources and does not use a lot of memory, nor it slow down your computer. It detects and deletes rootkits, worms, viruses, etc. Overall, it does its jobs pretty well. Have a nice day and God speed!

AVG is my favorite. I run it every night while I'm sleeping, and have pretty much stayed virus free.

I use Norton. I know there are people who say its a resource hog but i dont see why these people say these things. I run Norton Anti-Virus and firewall on a 1.0ghz AMD computer and it runs fine. The interface of Norton is also the best, everything is clear and well laid out. Security has always been perfect and i am always in control and made aware of potential security threats to my computer. Afreddy, i have also used AVG in the past before switching to Norton. The main reason i switched was for peace of mind. AVG has a very basic feel to it and i needed something more in depth. Although as a free option its one of the best.
