I'm having a hard time with this virus I got from my friends USB, and to tell the truth there is no anti virus installed in my computer. The virus blocks my copy/paste and taskbar. Someone suggest that I download Kaspersky. What anti virus are you using myLotters and how effective is it?

i used to use AVG but it slowed down my computer (my computer is kind of old),then someone here on mylot said avast is the best. so i changed to avast and it doesn't slow down my computer. the new version has a nice user interface,unlike the old one. it has also prevented a few trojan horses and other threats from entering my computer. so i would highly recommend avast.

I used AVG before but its more annoying than the virus itself. Thanks for the suggestion. I will try out Avast.

i'm using kaspersky. it's the best anti-virus for me. so far, the viruses that i have been getting from limewire and bit torrent files have been taken care of. i suggest you try it yourself.

Hello greencard! You should used an antivirus in your computer! I used PC Tools Antivirus and until now its still haven't any virus...well, at least, not if my antivirus clean it.... I used before ESETNOD32 antivirus on my old computer and I heard that is the best but then I couldn't download it now here in my laptop because its for only a trial version. I could download it through torrent but for now I have to be content in using this PC Tools antivirus...

I used AVG before but now I like Avira Anti-virus. In our office, we also used Avira for the effectiveness and it is a reliable anti-virus whenever a virus attack happens.

We use avira antivirus. I find it effective because it easily gives you an alert if there is a detected malicious activity. But whenever it's updating, it causes the performance of the motherboard slow.
