-- Posted by Rebecca li at 6:49 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 I'm going to buy an Anti  Virus program for my laptop and I was just wondering what one would be the best. There is Nortan Anti Virus on it now, and I hate it. Also, if you know where I could download a good one for free that would be great!! -- Posted by reev at 6:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 NOD32 or Kaspersky. -- Posted by xJosex at 6:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Windows defender? -- Posted by YeahBoii at 6:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 As long as you don't get Norton, McAfee, or F-Secure you'll be good. -- Posted by Ethryx at 6:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Quote: from xJosex at 9:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Windows defender? Lol, your a comedian. -- Posted by Chevy Jackson at 6:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Try the AVG free version. I've been using it for the last year or so, and I liked it enough to buy a one-year subscription. It's fairly cheap too, but I don't remember exactly how much I paid. -- Posted by raza301 at 6:51 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 mcafee sucks -- Posted by iwashere85 at 6:52 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Absolutely not to: -Windows Defender (should come with it, don't use it, disable it!) -Norton (I know you said it, but really, it is a virus in itself) -McAfee (crap crap crap crap...) I highly suggest: -ZoneAlarm Antivirus or ZoneAlarm Security Suite. It has kept my computer clean for many years.   -- Posted by xJosex at 6:53 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Quote: from Ethryx at 9:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Quote: from xJosex at 9:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Windows defender?

I use it on my computer, and I love it. -- Posted by ilessthanthreeyouu at 7:00 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Avast! It's legally free, dude, and it's awesome. -- Posted by Rebecca li at 7:02 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 I've been using McAfee on my desktop for a few years and I've loved it. Never had a problem with it. I just don't know how it got on there. I think the military was giving it out for service memebers and my dad got it... I'll check out some of the otherone you guys have mentioned. Thanks a lot!! -- Posted by Ancient Rights at 8:38 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Windows Live OneCare is a really good one. A full range of virus protection, spyware protection, file backup, automatic full tune ups, it is my favorite. -- Posted by Dannay at 3:25 am on Aug. 30, 2008 Quote: from xJosex at 2:53 am on Aug. 28, 2008 Quote: from Ethryx at 9:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Quote: from xJosex at 9:50 pm on Aug. 27, 2008 Windows defender? Lol, your a comedian.   Why? Windows defender isn't an anti virus program, it's an anti-spyware program which can help prevent and removes spyware _______________________________________ well the one i would suggest you hate so not that one lol :) Well at this moment i have AVG installed and it seems good except that it did not find this virus, and i had to scan the file with avast to get rid of it. I have also noticed that AVG when scanning.. there is no quick scan which is annoying, and on normal scan it like lags my computer so i have to put it on slow scan which uses less resources.. ( i have a pentium D processor.. it's the one before duocore was like made.. its two chips stuck together or something.. ) so if you have duo core that shouldn't really matter.. I also like that AVG has toolbar which has a link scanner which if you search on google it will tell you if the site is safe or not!
