KillJoy Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 AVG Free will do about as well as anything you can pay for. ALL A/V programs can miss things... especially if the threat is new. free.avg.com :thumbup: KillJoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbs3000 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 AVG is the most common one, I pair it with CCleaner and Malwarebytes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Brian Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 http://www.avast.com/index This is my favorite antivirus by far and I have it paired up with Spybot Search&Destroy (I used AVG back in the WinXP days, it sucks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acklac7 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Anti Virus is a Joke anymore. Any professional-grade hacker can easily circumvent 75% of all known "anti-viruses". If you think you are safe with any Anti-Virus software you are sorely, sorely mistaken. Best virus protection is to use your head, and Firefox with the no-script add on http://www.noscript.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
