Been using Norton for years and decided to change to Esset Nod32 and must say it's far better and just does it's job quitely in the background.

nod32 is the best
AVG 8.0 for me
yeah like avg 8.0 woks nice with vista others seem 2 slow the system down whats a good free spyware ive got spywareterminatior its ok but anyone can reccomend a better one
Avira for me :-
Free antivirus - Avira AntiVir
Free and if you do the following you can remove the nag update popup.
-Go to start.
-Settings
-Control panel
-Administrative tools
-Local security policy (If you want to get fancy, you can probably do this through a domain policy if you are on a domain)
- Software restriction policies
- Right click additional Rules
- Select new path rule
- Browse to the avnotify.exe program and set to restrict.
Try to go open that file and you should get an error that execution has been disabled for this file.
This will stop the annoying popup.
Viv@ !
nod 32 is the best
nod 32
it's between nod 32 and and avg 8..... but run perfectly in the background..
The best ultimate security i would recommend is:
Avast - Anti Virus
Malwarebytes.org Anti Malware
Rogue Remover
Zone Alarm Firewall
Arovax Anti Spyware
Super Anti Spyware
Advanced Windows Care
RegSeeker
Ccleaner
Then you could use things like spybot and adaware for backups.
There are tons out there but all the above are free and very effective at there job, if you need any software for anything else just give me a shout.
My frozen 4462 day nod32 anti virus trial is the best. The trial days dont even count down.
Read the Rules here; they apply to Everyone.
I appreciate all the help people give. I spent many years helping others, now it's me who needs the help.
Before the 2010 reset on the DK thanks count, I had over 3,000 thanks received and over 500 given

yes commodo is a good free firewall as well, the built in malware scanner is not very good, however the firewall very rarely leeks to any attacks so yes this is also a good free firewall.
I did not mention before but there are a number of rootkits you can download as backup as well, commodo do one which is good, however i would recommend panda, note rootkits should be very rare on your pc as long as you regulary use malwarebytes anti malware.
Little tip: AVG anti root kit takes up alot of system resources.
Have been using the AVG for quite a while now. Only uses one core to run any scans etc so the machine runs happily using the other core.. Have no real probs with it on any of my sigle core machines as well.
Its horses for courses really, will only say that Symantec was arse, slowed down any box and missed many virus events that AVG found... I have McAfee as well on another box, not very impressive.. Stick with a good free ones, there is no direct support but the products are as good as the subbed versions..
