Free antivirus ???computer security

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/... On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope
I use Avast. Click unto the link and check it out.

Free antivirus?

AVG baby!!!

(works faster %26 better than Norton) FREE TOO!!!

Free antivirus?computers

they're so many out there that you can just swap to a new antivirus when the trial runs out, but the time you've gone threw them all, they would have released a new version of the program out.

but I've used AVG free, in the past, it's good and free.

Free antivirus?hijack this

Yeah, do the Grisoft? AVG thing. They now have free anti-spyware and anti rootkit progs too. The spyware one seems pretty good so far, too.

I am currently using AVG FREE edition and am not quiet satisfied with it. I need a new antivirus that is free and is good too. Also i am using Zone Alarm firewall (FREE). If there is a better combination on firewall and Antivirus you have on your mind then please do suggesest it for me. Please give only those Antiviruses and Firewalls that are available for free !

AVG is JUNK. I recommend active virus shield. It is the best one and it is FREE.

Why is AVG "Junk"? It is the largest downloaded free antivirus online by a mile ! 15 odd million folk have it on their computors .. I actually found AOL Active shield slowed my pc on Startup , however yes it does a job and looks good... Im sticking to AVG though . Report It


I'm using eTrust's AV alongside Zone Alarm and they work well together. Unfortunately eTrust is only free for one year, but well worth using for twelve months.

Here's a link http://home3.ca.com/SubscriptCenter/MSTr...

Plus more information here http://store.digitalriver.com/DRHM/servl...
Can't get one for free! SORRY : (

You have to pay for all of the good ones!
NOD 32 is the best anti virus i ever seen
Avast and Zone Alarm are currently the best free security programs presently. You were correct to notice that AVG is not that good. Too many think is great but it's ranking for protection is fairly poor.

Which free antivirus + firewall will you recommend ?

i want to install a free antivirus and free firewall -

i am contemplating

A ) avast + comodo firewall

B ) zone alarm firewall and antivirus

C ) comodo firewall and antivirus

D ) avg + zone alarm firewall

E ) avast / avg + free old version sygate

Which free antivirus + firewall will you recommend ?firewall

I'd recommend either:

Avira+Comodo firewall, or Avast+Comodo Firewall.

for Spyware protection, I'd recommend:

Spyware Terminator (http://www.SpywareTerminator.com) or

either one will give you good, realtime protection, along with

Ad-Aware Free (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad_a... and

Free antivirus which WORKS!?

I currently have a few viruses on my computer and none of the free antivirus I've tried work.

They detect the virus but can't clean them.

Are there any good antivirus out there which really take care of business?

Free antivirus which WORKS!?hijack this

most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser. you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus.

i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser. as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.

besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.

download firefox for free, Just have a try:

http://www.openawindow.info/firefox/

Good Luck !!!

Free antivirus which WORKS!?liveupdate

First of all, no matter what anti-malware progs you use, they won't do squat if you don't UPDATE them at least every week if not every _DAY_!!!

A great online scanner is:

Avast AV is the best free AV out at this time. I use it and have ever since it came out a couple years ago. I ditched AVG, which has gone down hill FAST for it.

Free antivirus or Mcafee???

Should I go out and buy one or should I download a free one? Has anyone had any problems with these FREE antivirus softwares?

Free antivirus or Mcafee???hijackthis

Just like opinions, everyone is going to have a different one, so you would have to do some trial %26 error here. Some solutions work for some and not for others.

C/Net is a safe , trusted download site that offers free, shareware downloads that are also rated by their reviewers and end-users like you and I. Perhaps you should begin here:

http://www.download.com/Security-Spyware...

Personally, I would make the purchase after trying the program for free. That way you can see what works for you. I also want the extra product support - 24/7 in some cases - and the virus definitions that come with the paid versions vs most of the free ones that I have tried. Some of the free versions do not protect my computers totally.

Kapersky is GREAT and has a 30 day free trial - I use the Enterprise version because I have 5 computers on my home network.!

http://usa.kaspersky.com/downloads/

Free antivirus or Mcafee???malware

niether, go out and buy zone alarm security suite
I highly recommend Trend Micro's PC-cillin. I have seen it detect and remove viruses that AVG, Norton and McAfee have all missed.

Actually, the Free AVG Software is available for 7.5 but it will not install on a server. If you are on 7.1, it will tell you that software will be expiring but you could go to website (a non domain computer could see the free website)

http://free.grisoft.com/doc/avg-anti-vir...
I use avast antivirus, its free for home users and in my opinion it runs alot more efficiently than Norton used to on my computer. www.avast.com
Bitdefender Free Edition.

http://www.bitdefender.com
They are doing away with 7.1 and you have to upgrade to 7.5 which you can do right now,It is still free and works better than ever.
no its just going to a newer version http://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/...
Go back to grisoft.com (home of AVG), you will indeed find they have a free version out there. I've heard lots of folks use it. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles of AVG. No auto update. Also look into a free anti-virus (open-source, long time to download, and sort of long time to download updates) called clam. (You'll find that clam also imposes itself as a popup logo whenever you run Outlook, if you do.) Two possibilities. And go see majorgeeks.com for free software, and scan yahoo answers here, there was an answer in the past two days (an answer on unexplained popups, if I recall) that gave intense details for antivirus info websites.
I can give a few links that offer free virus and spyware removers...!You may be having a virus or spyware installed on your PC. Norton, AVG , Avast are free antivirus software. Ad-aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at

http://fixit.in/antivirus.html and http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html
Avast is where it is at. I have heard and used AVG before but Avast is awesome. Not a memory hog. Customizable and it has a light software firewall. I run it on all my pc's at home and work.

I've had AVG free edition on my computer since it was installed 7 months ago and it has worked fine. If it finds a virus it alerts me and then I can choose to put it in the vault or remove it. Just type Free AVG anti-virus and you get the Grisoft sites. Read down a few as there is a virus protector and anti spy-ware one combined
Free Antivirus do work but just like the paid for Antivirus programs they work to different degrees.

Here are three free Antivirus programs:

Avira, Avast %26 AVG

Avira has the hightest detection rate

Avast the second hightest detection rate

AVG the lowest detection rate.

If your going to use a free Antivirus programs then use Avira or Avast, not AVG.
You friend has misinformed you, the avg free and pc tools antivirus are both free and they do find and remove virus,,

Is "AVG Free" really a good antivirus software?nortan antivirus

AVG is totally worthless. It is junk. I recommend active virus shield. It is by far the best free antivirus you can have.
AVG is okay but not the best.

I would recommend either Symantec/Norton or McAfee (but they're not free) if you really want something free AVG is fine
Yes it is. The editors of PC Magazine have rated it right up there beside McAfee, Norton and other leading commercial brand software.
I've been using AVG for a fair while now and I have never had any problems with it, or with my computer for that matter. I definitely like it better than other's I have used.
Here are some other free ones to consider http://www.basicspywaretips.com/freeviru...
its allright.
It's better than nothing... Afterall, it's fast to download and updates everytime... I manna say it's one hell of a credible av software.

so far on my experience it always block every two weeks worms infiltrating my system so yeah, it's one heck of a free av sys. =D
It's not the best but fastest is.

because it launches itself after complete start-up it's toooooo fast.

it also works the best
McAfee anti-virus, and Norton are system hogs, they take up a lot of room, i had McAfee it took almost 50 minutes to do a scan, Have AVG free now and have no problams with it, its a good program.
they might be good but the interface is sooooo not user-friendly! i uninstalled avast after two days of use cos it was extremely annoying
avg and avast are the 2 best free ones

I have avg

I love it

"Best" free antivirus and free firewall program?

I have McAfee now, and subscription is running out.

I don't mind paying for these programs but if there's free ones out there that will give me just as good protection, I don't want to waste my money.

Are the free firewall and antivirus just as good as payed ones and if so which would you recommentd?

I'm thinking the saying "you get what you pay for", meaning you have to pay for something of quality.

I may be wrong.

Please help me decide.

I have Windows XP and not even thinking of converting to Vista.

Hello,

I recommend you AVG Free Edition which is very effective :

- More than 90% detecting rate

- Several updates per day

- Very light

- Easy to use
avg is the best
I was in the same boat not too long ago, and I researched for a while and found Avast. This program seems to be the highest rated among the free anti-virus programs, and has worked exceptionally well for me.
go to www.avaist.com its the sht
Avira, Avast! and AVG are good, in that order - in my opinion.

Re: Free AVG free antivirus?

I had the free AVG free antivirus and it would come up on a regular time to update my virus scan. Now I no longer see the icon on the bottom of my screen and it no longer does the updates. It is still located on my desktop though. I had added what I thought was a free firewall, is that AVGw, that is also on my desktop now. Please help, I'm not young and still trying to learn the right way. What has gone wrong, can anybody help me.

Re: Free AVG free antivirus?liveupdate

read following article..i think this will solve your probs

http://michealsoft.blogspot.com/2007/09/...

Re: Free AVG free antivirus?nortin

click on the avg thats on your desktop and somewhere in the box that pops up is the firewall for avg you need to re-enable it. something has knocked it out it happens ocassionaly. when you re-enable the firewall it should put the icon back on the taskbar and once the firewall is active again it will do the auto updates
My icon when Black one time..I had uninstall and reinstall it...it has worked fine since then..

Don't know if this will help,,,but it can't hurt to get it back...
It means the FREE license key has expired, now you need to re-registrate for a new license key. Then it'll update regularly. Registration for a new key is also free.

Avg antivirus (the free one)?

just a question about avg free antivirus....... alot of people recommend it on here...... but is it not aload of rubbish because it is free? just when anything else is concerned people say it crap because it free and u get what you pay for................is avg exempt from this?

Avg antivirus (the free one)?matchless

AVG is free because no support is offered for it, you have to manually update it, think what would happen if you forget, also it has poor detection rates about 80% compare it to Kaspersky 98%, Norton 96% or McAfee 94%

Avg antivirus (the free one)?norton 2008

its free and works well. i use it
CNET: "AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition is the most popular free solution available at no cost to home users and provides the high level of detection capability that millions of users around the world trust to protect their computers."

They make all their money from their Corporate Edition.

Our entire system changed from Norton's Corp. to AVG Network addition. That alone is over 20,000 computers. I guess all of the "noob" technical staff here decided that better performance took precedence over bloatware.
You'll probably get as many opinions as there are anti-virus programs. There is no "one" anti-virus program that will catch everything. It's just the nature of the beast.

There is always a trade off.

Typically, it does not matter what you decide to choose but will instead be using time on your computer to always be tweaking it and forgetting what you intended to have it for.
Zone alarm is good, but I have found Panda, even though it has to be paid for is well worth the money. You get free 24/7 tech support and $1,500.00 insurance on hardware damage if infected and damaged by virus or other malicious code. Nobody else offers these things. Norton does not catch things Panda catches, such as adware or malicious cookies, and if you try getting rid of Norton the program leaves behind awful mess in Registry. I also use Microsoft sypware defense which is free, not for any spy purpose as Panda gets all that, but for the 49 checkpoints, like guards watching vulerable areas inside computers and doesn't allow any potential harmfull changes unless you first ok them as safe. Free is just ok in my experiance, but purchasing a great Internet Security Suite is well worth the expense. I paid lots for my system why go cheap on security?

Good free antivirus program?

Anyone know of a good free antivirus that is not AVG Antivirus?? I was using AVG but it keeps going "update is unsuccessful" and I can't fix it...

Good free antivirus program?network

I recommend Avast home edition. It is completely free, and all you need to do is register for a free activation key each year. It includes automatic DAILY updates, an email shield, im shield, p2p shield, and more. I have used Symantec, McAfee, AVG, and Avast, and Avast uses the least resources, runs the fastest, and is the most user friendly of them all.

Visit http://www.avast.com to download a copy.

Good free antivirus program?norton

Avast is anoying, AVG has time and again found stuff that Avast didn't even see. Use AVG with "Hijackthis" (yes, thats it's name) and "Spybot search and distroy"

But, if you ever want to buy the very best antivirus software, that would be Zonealarm, hands down. If anyone, even on here, try's to tell you different, get thier IP address and send it to me, I'll show them just what a pile of dong any other anti is. Zonealarm, you can't even step on the curb, much less get up to the house, so to speak.
Switching programs may not solve your problem - are you using a limited user account that is being blocked from completing the update? do a google search on the message you are getting, AVG and your OS.

Which free antivirus are u using?

what about you??

and i am glad that i use AVG for my antivirus software!!

are u using avg?

Which free antivirus are u using?nortan antivirus

I use the free version of AVG and think it works great.

Which free antivirus are u using?nortonantivirus

Ya thanks I use AVG when I had my computer fixed the

tech put it on for me it scans daily I like it a lot.
afraid to answer, are you sending out a virus?
one, two or three antivirus installed on your computer is not enough to stop the viruses so it's good to have more than one antivirus.
Yes or No is depending on the result. I'm using Kaspersky Internet Security 7. I get what I pay for, and everyone does too. But I'm pretty sure that AVG is good for you. My recommendation is that you can use avast! software. It also has free edition.

Good Luck,
Spybot search and destroy is awesome. it finds at least 3 things every time. plus it has tons more tools to use on it.
Keep using AVG. Save the Norton disk for something more useful, like a drink coaster, frisbee, or shim.
i dnt use any antivirus programs because i hav a mac
I have being using AVG for almost three years and don't have any complaints, it is among the top rated freewares in almost all prestigious magazines on the web.
I am using AVG free edition, A-Squared Free, PC Tools Antivirus and Windows Defender all at once. Contrary to what you read on this forum, you CAN run more than one AV program at once with no conflicts or degradation of performance. However, I am running 4 gigs of RAM also, so I have a tremendous amount of RAM overhead to use for programs. The only software conflict I have ever had while running more than one AV program is between Norton and PC Tools on an old Windows 98 SE machine. I suspect I had more troubles than the AV conflict, but didn't care enough to try to fix it. I just trashed Norton instead............it was easier.
PCTools products do get good reviews. The good thing is they have free versions of their products. They work great. Spyware Doctor from the Google pack is a must. I highly recommend it. I bought Webroots Spysweeper and spyware doctor finds stuff spysweeper does not. Having both is a perfect combo and I recommend running two anti-spyware products.

Best free antivirus?

On the advice of Y!A users, I downloaded Anti Virus Shield, but it only works if there are no other antivirus softwares installed in the pc.

Is it worth throwing out AVG Free and replacing it with AntiVirus Shield?

Your time spent answering this question is deeply appreciated.

Best free antivirus?nortan

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/ On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps.

Avg is the best free virus protection on the market, hands down. You should keep avg.

Not free antivirus?norten

hands down panda is the best internet security i ever had. i tried norton, but it had real problems removing viruses and kept showing errors. you have to manually remove them, but they can be difficult. i tried mcafee, but they suck and when you remove them it keeps prompting you to buy their software. its clearly the best since its easy to use with its user friendly graphical interface. and it blocks viruses, scripts, just about everything that is bad. you can block people from using your wireless internet. the firewall, joke detector, virus remover, spyware remover. and their support team is nice. im currently using linux so i don't have to use it anymore. but my license won't expire until october. i once ran a script on my cousins computer, it was a joke, norton didn't even block it. get it here www.pandasecurity.com or pandesoftware.com im not sure so many websites that have panda in it. i would go with the second one since it gives virus monitoring activity. looks more legitamate.

AVG is the best free anti virus program I know of. You can download it from www.grisoft.com

An excellent pop up blocker is Popup Stopper, which you can download from www.panicware.com

While we're on the subject of security, another essential is a good anti spyware program. I would recommend AdAware from www.lavasoft.com
I use AVG, which has a free version and a full version that cost money. It works for me, and I believe it includes popup blockers.
Antivir

free-av.com
Try Virusbuster, it's free and not resource hungry and good enough for everyday needs.
Get Avast! Home Edition, it's much better than McAfee and it's free. It does not slow down your system either.

http://pctonic.blogspot.com/2007/05/anti...
I have had viruses with McAfee, Norton, Panda, and Kapersky but the one I that I have and have had for years and never received a virus since is AVG, this immediately detects when a Trojan gets on your computer and it heals it or deletes it that fast.

Spybot - Search %26 Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S%26D is free.

Please follow these steps to a completely secure and clean computer, which is all for free and safe! Remove all firewalls and anti-virus on your computer, as more than one of them causes unwanted conflicts on your computer. Note: It is perfectly fine to have more than one anti-spyware. To remove 鈥淲indows Firewall鈥? click Start%26gt;Control Panel%26gt;Security Center%26gt;Windows Firewall%26gt;Off (not recommended) Note: Don鈥檛 worry about that, these steps will relieve you of that worry. Now that鈥檚 done, remove your ant-virus by clicking Start%26gt;Control Panel%26gt;Add or Remove Programs. (Wait for the list to be populated by all your programs on your computer.) Look for your anti-virus, then click 鈥渞emove鈥?after that follow the uninstall wizard to remove your anti-virus. Note: If you had a different firewall than 鈥淲indows Firewall鈥?then just follow the way to remove your anti-virus, except look for your firewall instead of the anti-virus. (Make sure that the 鈥淲indows Firewall鈥?is off also).

Free Antivirus software?norton internet security

William V, I'd disagree.

I've been an IT Professional for several years, and I'd recommend AVG Free. It's protected my Windows PC very well for a long time. The only disadvantage is that it won't protect you against spyware: for this (and I'm afraid it's paid-for) I'd recommend AVG Internet Security.

However, I'd argue that the solution is more in prevention than in cure:

-Don't use P2P file sharing software.

-Don't open email attachments unless you know what they are.

-Don't run .exe files unless you know what they are.

-Use common sense!

Free Antivirus software?spyware remove

AVG Anti- Virus is pretty good.
go www.download.com and u can find a lot of anti-virus and free
Avast or perhaps AntiVir
Do yourself a favor and make sure you have a REAL virus protector in place and keep it up to date. DO NOT use one of the free registry scrubbers or antivirus tools so many here suggest. Some of these are just ok, but far too many are themselves evilware and most of them are pretty flimsy. Some actually implant other spyware, adware or even viruses or trojans on your system and make things worse--far worse. The problem with a weak antivirus program is that it gives you a false sense of security--like Airborne cold-preventer. Using nothing at all would be better as you would be more careful about where you venture on the Internet.

Free? Probably AVG and Avast. By the way (referring to 鈥渏ibbarjap鈥?answer above) using 鈥渄etection capabilities鈥?as criteria for finding best AV, probably doesn鈥檛 reflect reality, as softwares which uses aggressive (or too aggressive) heuristic rules would produce most positives (out of which most would be however false as well 鈥?even having nothing against Kasperky itself which seems to be good AV). 鈥淔alse positive鈥?stands for incorrect detection where not-malware program is identified mistakenly as malware.

What is the best free antivirus, free antispyware and free firewall?virus removal

If you want free anti-virus software then go with AVG 8.0 free edition, some people suggest Avira AntiVir which has a good detection rate but the free version can take upto 2 hours to update which makes it almost unusable, AVG updates are small and takes seconds.

Some people suggest Avast which has an outdated interface (Link below) and is poor at detecting viruses (pc pro labs test). http://www.download.com/3004-2239_4-1082...

AVG 8.0 is the best free anti-virus software its not perfect but has a nice interface, decent detection and quick updates. http://free.grisoft.com/ww.download-avg-...

Ad-aware is a useful free program as well run it once a week to clear obvious adware. http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad_a...

I would recommend using the firefox web browser it is simple and easy to use and it blocks a lot of drive-by viruses that internet explorer would let through.

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following linkhttp://www.computeractive.co.uk/. On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps

Try a online antivirus scanner and a online anti-adware/malware/spyware scanner in safe mode with network to clean up your computer BEFORE you download anything.

Turn off system restore before you boot up in safe mode with network to clean your system restore points for viruses, spyware, adware etc.

To get in safe mode tap F8 when booting you computer.

Choose "Safe mode with network".

Go to Start 鈥?Run - type iexplore http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html Enter(ok).

Do a full system scan. If something is found, delete it, reboot and do the same again in safe mode with network.

When that scan does not find anything you reboot again in safe mode with network.

Go to Start 鈥?Run 鈥?type iexplore http://www.ewido.net/en/ Enter(ok).

Do a full system scan. If something is found, delete it, reboot and do the same again in safe mode with network.

**NOTE: Do NOT do anything else with your computer when scanning. This because you can start virus/adware/spyware/malware manually.

When no one of these scanners are showing anything you can reboot back to normal mode.

Need A Free Antivirus Remover?

Hi, I want a free antivirus remover that actually works Ive got AVG, COMODO, ADVANCED WINDOWSCARE V2, SPYBOT, ADAWARE, But my computer is stil f***in Runin slow %26 pissin me off, I've done cleanups etc. Is there a good virus remover thats free out there? help!

Need A Free Antivirus Remover?symantic

AVG is an amazing program. If you used all of these programs and it is still running slower than you would like, check to see how many programs you run at a time. Your CPU usage may be up toward the higher percentile. This is where all the programs are running at once making your computer slower.

Another thing you can do is disk defragment your hard drive.

This will take the programs used more often and put them in the front of yoru hard drive per say. Making them run faster.

Another thing you can do is format your hard drive. Basically, this is deleting everything off of your hard drive including your operating system.

This requires knowledge of computer and how to put an operating system back on. So have someone who knows what they are doing to do this.

In conclusion, it doesn't seem to be viruses that are slowing your computer down, the lack of computer maintenance is the cause.

I don'f know about the free version, but I'm using a trial version of avg and so far, it's okay. Usually a free version doesn't give you all the benefits of the paid version. I like the avg anti-virus utility, and probably will buy it when my trial is up.
AVG is free.

AVG is also one of the worst programs to detect virus'.

If all you can afford is free, better than nothing.

If your looking to buy, go for Kaspersky, Nod32, or Mcafee.
This free antivirus from Germany ranks quite high with the purchase antivirus. Far superior to AVG antivirus in detection.

AVG Antivirus free - problem with false positives?

AVG has been driving me crazy recently with a constant rash of new false positives ~ programs that I know aren't virus laden are labelled as visuses and disabled GRRR!. I have read elsewhere that this is called by heuristic scanning and it was recommended that this be switched off.

I would like to know how to switch heuristic scanning off?

AVG doesn't seem to have any means of getting feedback from their users either which is a bit of a problem. Is there a better free antivirus product out there?

AVG Antivirus free - problem with false positives?systemworks

A very high percentage of computers scrapped each year is because of virus, spyware and malware.

I would recommend AVG antivirus with a combination of Spybot -Search%26Destroy and WinPatrol. These are all freewares and lite on your system thereby taking up less of your system resources unlike norton and mcafee. More over these are effective than others considering that they are freewares.

Winpatrol provides you complete control over your system by alerting any hidden changes made to your system and spybot protects your system against any threats like spywares,adwares, trojans and threats in installed softwares.
search and destory its free
i use avg for both www.free.grisoft.com
Avast! antivirus will be a best one. I tried it and I am satified with the results.
AVG antivirus free edition. it's free and very light on the system. works really well along with Sygate Personal Firewall (also free).
theres not much free crap out there but spybot search and destroy S %26 D
I'd recommend you to use avg.
AVG without a doubt.
In Windows XP Norton anti spyware and virus is already inside it.. Like comes installed already when you buy the computer.
It might be wise to check to see what your internet service provider has to offer. It might not be free, but will run from $4.95 to $6.95 per month with all the new viruses id-ed,

In my spare time I test on my backup computer all antispyware/antivirus programs to see if the perform as claimed And especially to see which one have embedded trojans/adware either in their program or in the wizard installer used to guide you through the installation.

What is rate as 1-2-3-4-5 is not always the best. Especially when you can find free programs that are light years ahead in technology over the purchased.

In my computer I use the following free programs.

For antivirus you can only use one or you will have serious conflict with your system. You can use three or four antispyware without any conflict.

Avast in my opinion is the very best. Have used Avast for nine plus years and never had one virus. They are out of Prague.

I have used Avast for over nine years an I never had one virus.

http://www.avast.com This program is free and has one of the very best background scanner that will catch any virus in real time and destroyed the virus before it can enter you system.

Updates auto., two or three times per day.

They will ask you for your email address so they can send you a free key that is good for one year. After one year you only have to request a new key.

AVG is a good anti-virus software but it is not great. However since AVG is free you have nothing to lose. I personally think Avast is a better choice for free anti-virus software.

I think you should try both of them and see which one you like the best. Just make sure to uninstall your current anti-virus program before installing another. You should never have 2 anti-virus programs installed at the same time.

Avg free antivirus rates and reviews?antispam

As of April 2008 they have chosen to turn AVG antivirus into a VIRUS itself with the addition of a "feature" which randomly fires up your PC's web browser WITHOUT WARNING AND WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION taking you to AVG's website to ADVERTISE for their version 8 product suite. AVOID THIS PROGRAM!!! Report It


Loads of people love AVG and I'm sure you'll find many reviews from computer magazines which will tell you how wonderful it is.

Are free antivirus programs as good as their commercial counterparts?

I'm considering using free antivirus after my current subscription runs out and want to know if it's the real deal. Pros and cons please. And yes searching similar questions didn't yield any good, conclusive answers.

Are free antivirus programs as good as their commercial counterparts?vista

I have found that Avast Anti-Virus is great. It is a commercial application that has been made freely avaliable to home users. They still have a very strong user base comercially and as they deal with companies are very up to date on their pattern files. Most of your Anti-Virus software that comes from your Broadband/Dial-up provider is very stable and well updated. I would probally stay well away from GPL or Community developed Virus Protection, as you are only as safe as the company that makes it.

Are free antivirus programs as good as their commercial counterparts?antispyware

try AVG, its very good antivirus, keeps the definitions up to date.
Panda seemed to have detected the most viruses, from personal experience. I have a list of em at http://www.jimmyr.com/security.php I don't even use an active virus scan, but every once in awhile I scan using multiple online scanners.

No scanner is best. They all use complicated algorithms to detect viruses quickly, that's why its best to use several. Emule has a few antiviruses...

Is there a Free antivirus I can download and run from a disc?

Is their some kind of free antivirus That will boot from disc? I have a virus that will not let me download a antivirus from the web.

Is there a Free antivirus I can download and run from a disc?adware

If you want a free anti-virus I recommend in order of popularity, but please choose the right one for you (install only one):

1. AVG Free

a. A simple interface (easier to use than Avast! and Avira)

b. Can detect about 82.82% of viruses

Cons: low virus detection

2. Avast!

a. Real-time protection

b. It has an option to delete a virus once found

c. Can detect about 87.46% of viruses.

Cons: Too many icons and confusing user interface

3. Avira AntiVir

a. It can detect malware better than Avast and AVG

b. It's cute umbrella icon

c. Can detect about 94.26% of viruses

Cons: A very sluggish update

Any of these can be downloaded to a disc - you will need to run this anti-virus in Safe Mode (tap F8 as the computer boots up and choose to boot to safe mode). It is also important to update the virus definitions once installed on your computer.

Is there a Free antivirus I can download and run from a disc?antivirus scan

Go to http://www.free-av.com/ and download Avira Classic. Then go to http://www.avira.com/en/threats/section/... and download the latest definitions. After installing Avira, go to the update menu and click manual update..., locate the file and then scan.
Good question...

What is the most hassle free antivirus program out there?

Here are the hassles I'm trying to avoid:

* high resource usage (Panda Software)

* a virus disabling the antivirus (Norton)

* Internet Explorer dependencies (Mcafee)

* bad tech support (almost every antivirus vendor)

* firewall or antivirus pop-ups (systray notification is fine)

Ideally, the vendor would have forums, user-submitted documentation and other mechanisms short of contacting technical support to solve problems, and a bug reporting form.

If the answer is Trend Micro, will someone please help me find someone who can support it free of charge without my having to call them? The spyware scan seems inconsistent sometimes finding things sometimes not (2 minutes of each other), it has trouble removing TSPY.SN and keeps popping up to tell me it found TSPY.SN creating what is essentially an infinite loop.

When I boot into safe mode, the product fails to work properly.

Ideally, I would want a security suite.

--Sam

What is the most hassle free antivirus program out there?anti virus protection

Norton is pretty hassel free if you've got enough system resources for it not to be a problem. Updates by it self, does the job, and besides if you have a NT OS system resources aren't something you've gotta worry about as much anyway. At least not as much as you do with windows 98, which was a nice OS for the time but basicly screws you over with the OS system resources running out and thus forcing you to restart everytime this happens.

What is the most hassle free antivirus program out there?antivirus

I'd recommend McAfee Security Suite. It is not dependent on IE. It has a real simple User Interface (UI). Norton's UI is not as good as McAfee's but, is a second best. You can turn alerts to the way you want. Standard though, is where a little alert pops up in the system tray and the goes away, (also it does take up about 1/8 of the screen).

For your PC to be OK, you have to protect it from viruses and hackers!

The virus is a small program that attach itself to other files from your computer and can harm your computer, by restarting it, freezing it or even by deleting your files or stealing your personal information.

To keep your computer safe from viruses you have to use an anti-virus program, like Norton, AVG, Kaspersky, Avast, Antivir, McAfee, Bit Defender. Some are free and others have trial versions.

Here you have some links to download the free versions of some of the best anti-virus programs, as well as other security tools:

Try download.com or if you are a comcast customer, they offer free virus software. You could also go to Mcafee.com and I think they offer a free trial for 30 days.

Verizon offers an Internet Security Suite,

but it is NOT free. If you prefer free security software, here are some recommendations from available freeware:

firewall:

Comodo (http://www.comodo.com), or

PC Tools (http://www.pctools.com/firewall)

Comodo recently released version 3.0 of its firewall, which adds an intrusion prevention component that's very effective, though it does take time for it to learn your system, and requires some ongoing attention by the user to make sure programs don't get improperly blocked. Comodo is one of the strongest firewalls available, freeware or commercial, according to the independent testing site matousec.com.

Can anyone tell me free antivirus to download for my home computer?antivirus

The best free software is AVG! from grisoft. But be warned- the free AVG is not a complete replacement for a complete suite- such as Norton. The free AVG contains no real-time protection- which means you will have to run the scans yourself and it does not have as big of a database of "known virus." I would highly recommend buying a full suite- Norton is your best bet

What is the "Best" free antivirus?

I am looking for a very good antivirus. I used to have the one Optimum Online offers for free "E-Trust Ez Armor" But it was very weak and could not detect many viruses at all. It didn't search for ad-ware, spyware etc.

I recently have downloaded the Comodo AntiVirus and FireWall combo. I have heard a lot about the FireWall and PC Magazine has recognized it also.

Though, I hear the A.V. is very young and still cannot detect all viruses. I need something that can protect too (not just scan like the BitDefender Freeware).

What is the "Best" free antivirus?aurora

In addition to a firewall you must have full time (active) virus protection and full time spyware protection.

All the following programs are free.

--------------------------------------...

Full Time (Active) Virus Protection

If you do not have active virus protection, install only one. All are excellent.

Try AVG first.

Hi, i use avg antivirus free edition and i keep it up to date every day and always stop all viruses

yesterday! I downloaded a file and scanned it right away. It told me that the file was virus free but when i decompressed it, i end up with two files. One that was ok and the other one was a trojan named Kernels88. How come avg didn't detect it when i scanned it just before? Is there another free antivirus that is more effective than avg? Thank you very much for your help!!

Hi, i use avg antivirus free edition and i keep it up to date every day and always stop all viruses until...?auto protect

avg is very effective. However, when you scan a compressed file it will only scan the files that are visible. You should have opened the compressed folder and scanned again so that all the files were visable.

Hi, i use avg antivirus free edition and i keep it up to date every day and always stop all viruses until...?downloads

Because there is a reason its free, its crap.
There is nothing better than browsing the Internet with your hard drives in a vault.

Google "Internet Freedom Disk" to see the video

You have to put up with some minor inconvenience, but compare that to losing a hard drive or having your identity stolen and you'll see it is worth it.

Yep FREE!
Well avg is good antivirus it been there for years now. But u cant expect one software to do it all. I would suggest reinstalling avg and getting one antitrojans software for free u can get ewido from www.ewido.net or a-squared free
norton is now part of the google pack and it is free to keep!
