Suggest an antivirus software
hi CEans,
i have got a P4 processor with 128MB RAM and 40GB hardisk and am using WINDOWS XP. which antivirus would be best suited for my system. i hve been using AVG but i get this "out of date" message periodically.
what should i do??
will NORTON 2007 be a right choice? does that make the system slow??
regards
DEP

Sorry 😀 . Forget Norton 2007. It will just make your system take forever to boot & make it crawl. Moreover, its costly. So far, in my opinion, AVG is the best. Of course, you must keep on updating it regularly.
Other freeware antivirus softwares don't do the job. If you still want to go for Norton or McAfee, first upgrade your RAM to at least 512 MB.

ok as far as av is concerned .... take my word for it norton is crap .... a full updated norton has not been able to detect threats tht freeware av can ...
avast is currently the best free av solution available ... free of cost ... good on system resources and take my word it can find and also repair infected files -

Hi DEP,
I have been using Kaspersky Anti-Virus of atmost a year, being satisfied with the product you must try it. It comes with Anti-Virus, Anti-Spam, Anti-Hackers & all sorts of stuffs are available with Security Suite Edition.

DEPhey guys,
thanks to everyone. After going through iall your suggestions, i finally have decided to switch over to AVAST from AVG. I hope i am doing it right. i will wait for one day for a final approval from everyone of you(all those who have answered to my query) and than i will remove avg and go for AVAST.
thanks again.

just2rockHi DEP,
AVG is a good AV,but since its not helping you out.So I think you should rather shift to Mcafee,which will survive among all;-) -
Ashraf HZWait a sec, doesn't AVG repair files too? It has a "clean" function!
I've used AVG for quite a long time.. never has let me down. However, I use another free one as an on-demand scanner (AntiVir). Its slower, but has slightly better detection rate. -

martincrowHi,
I am using ESET NOD32 anti-virus,which is quite good, it carries the malware which is quite effective.
The main feature i like most,it does not slow down your PC,it is available for free download try it.
