i use bitdefender. its the best protection available. 100% detection and deletion rate. [ruptured]
nice.....can u plse provide the URL of bitdefender... [rajeshpalakkad]
I have AVG Free Edition, that is a good and FREE antivirus! Then I have Zone Alarm that is a very good firewall!! [Stev00]
but AVG wont catch the major viruses,that may damage ur computer... [rajeshpalakkad]
i'm using avast.. it's really fast n also it protects from virus that could not find by norton..so try.. [vivek4ru]
I'm using what is probably the best, atleast better than most. And it's free for private users, not for companies. Avast You can download it at www.avast.com [janytt]
I am using both AVG and Kaspersky together. I think this combination is the best. Norton is good but then it is too heavy for our computer, it scan everything and will make our computer become slow. Recently the all the newly developed virus are focusing on norton and will disable the norton antivirus. I have infected before such as the Brontoc virus. most of the new virus can not be scan by norton. this is just my oppinion. [Ghoststory]
I am using AVG Free Edition.. why? because its free to download, and it only consume few memory.I seldom use norton anivirus, because it consume large amount of memory...specially during start-up/boot-up.It's not advisable to use norton for slow computer..If you want to use norton better upgrade ur PC..

symentac corporate edition 10.0 [mohsan1987]
ohhh!!! hii to all.. best antivirus i used ever is AVG-Antivirus... its more secure to use AVG although i also used Norton and Mcafee and many more.. but now i am satisfied with the AVG antivirus... its absolutely free and the updates are quite easily updated without so much of time... and it gives the high performance for my computer. Many a times when i am sharing something in my LAN,,, AVG immediately detects which type of virus is this and completey wipe out the viruses... So i would like to prefer AVG antivirus instead of any other antivirus. Happy Mylotting!!! [hackingrules]

i use norton too!!. itīs the best software to prevent and kill virus and spyware [limalimon]
When I was still using Windows, I am using McAfee for my virus protection needs. It detects almost all viruses, and with heuristics technology, it also detects virus-like activities, making your computer virtually virus-free. It is also light on resources, you won't even notice that it is running in the background protecting your computer all the way through. I also tried Norton, but sad to say it didn't pass my taste. It is a resource hog, and it slowed my computer like a turtle. But it is also good in detecting viruses! If Norton wasn't a resource hog, then it will be on my recommended list regarding anti-viruses for the Windows platform. But then again I switched to Linux a few years ago. Why!? I was tired with all the Windows bug that resurfaces with every release of Windows. Not to mention that almost all viruses and spywares are "designed" to work only with Windows-based computers. With Linux, I don't have to worry about viruses, hence no need to install any anti-virus software.:) [ryanrudolf]
I tried McAfee first and it worked great but I didn't like the yearly fee. Then someone told me about AVG and I used it for awhile and it worked ok. Then when I got a new PC I tried the free trial of Norton which I didn't like at all. The Norton Version 2005 worked ok but it used too many resources and I didn't like the fact that it would pop up and run a scan at all times of the day and I couldn't even customize those settings. So I went back to AVG. Then about 6 months ago my PC got some kind of virus that changed the date on my PC to a month ahead. I didn't realize what the problem was but I knew that AVG would not update and it would not find the problem. So I looked around and found Avast downloaded it and ran it. It found 6 viruses that AVG could not and cleaned them. Immediately, my Date and Time Properties popped up and I saw my date was wrong. I reset it and I haven't had a problem since. I haven't even had a virus in the last 6 months. With AVG I had one virus after the other pop up just about daily. And you may not believe this, but you don't even have to worry about running the full scan at all with Avast. The background protection keeps your pc safe at all times. I run it about once a week just to ensure that all is well. I will never use another program. Avast works and best of all it is FREE. Norton is not an virus remover, but instead only a virus detector. It found 2 files of adware, and one trojan dropper virus in c:\command.exe Was it able to fix anything? Nope. I went to their website and it said to just delete the file. So I did. Guess what? Now windows won't load. And, you have to pay for updates to norton after a year..... now that sucks !! [leon1987]
