  1. AVG, Avast! or Aviara is good. Also, check with your ISP and see if they provide free online security.


  2. I'd say AVG. http://www.freesoftwareworkshop.com/free... It's a great freeware antivirus.

  3. http://www.avast.com

  4. Bitdefender free edition is powerfull antivirus but slowdowns ur system with "512 Ram or below"...so 1 gb Ram is recommnded for effectivness...

    to download-> http://www.bitdefender.com/media/html/tr...

    otherwise avast  is best .

    to download -> http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-...

    ...OR else get trial version of nod32 or kaspersky(for 30 days)!!!

  5. If you're looking for the best possible protection, top recommendation is Avira AntiVir Personal Edition. Although its detection rate is outstanding, there are some reservations. First, it lacks the email scanning feature that is only available in the paid version. This means that AntiVir won't warn you of infected emails before you open them. However, should you open an infected email, AntiVir will still spring into action, so the absence of an email scanner doesn't mean that you're not protected from email-based infections. Our second reservation is that AntiVir is quite an intrusive product - you will certainly be well aware of its presence, especially with the advertisements that appear with every update. Finally, AntiVir Personal Edition Classic has a time-limited license. It is renewable, but be aware that you'll have to periodically go through the hoops. The latest version is very light on resources, and includes anti-rootkit and a faster scan rate.

    If you're not prepared to accept the drawbacks of AntiVir, i would suggest either AVG Antivirus Free Edition or the Avast! scanner. Neither is quite as effective in detection as AntiVir, but both are more complete products, and less intrusive in use.

  6. Avira  

  7. *** I like AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition This competent virus scanner has everything covered. Its easy to use and will not slow your system down. Functionality, it's among the best.

    Also good...

    Avast antivirus - it has a boot time scanner. This important feature allows a user to instigate scanning before a virus is activated, in   the case that a virus is suspected to be active on your computer already.

  8. I would suggest that you get Avast Home Edition version 4,

    which is free for personal use.

    Avast is a very effective and free anti-virus program because it can do

    a boot time scan in safe mode and it will remove the entire virus on your PC.

    Even those viruses that hide inside the system restore folder.

    Windows utilize a restore utility that backs up selected files

    automatically to the System volume information /System Restore folder.

    This means that an infected file could be stored there as a backup file,

    and most anti-virus programs will be unable to delete these files. You

    must disable the System Restore Utility to remove the infected files

    from the folder if you use another brand of anti-virus. However, you do

    not need to do so if you use Avast to do a boot up scan in safe mode.
