Answer 1

Hijack This is not an AntiVirus its a program to help you in removal of malware and other stuff

if you want an antivirus download

Avira AntiVir- http://www.free-av.com

Answer 2

I was recommended this by my sister who is the I.T.specialist for one of the larger British police departments. If you would like to read unbiased reviews regarding a huge number of spyware and other programs go to www.download.com. They offer both an editors review plus reviews and comments from users.

Answer 3

Its more for when you have a virus or spy ware already on your computer, as it does not offer real time protection.

Try Avast, AVG or any other big name free anti virus solution :)

Answer 4

basically its not an anti virus its a tool that some use to take out spyware, viruses n stuff so it doesnt protect ur pc so try somethin else like avira or avast or superantispyware

Answer 5

Yeah niTAS is right

BitDefender Antivirus 10 offers a two-in-one defense, providing its award-wining antivirus and antispyware protection in one product. Unfortunately, in CNET Labs' performance testing, BitDefender lagged behind the competition, including McAfee VirusScan Plus, one of the slower antivirus applications we've tested. BitDefender is still a top-rated antivirus solution
