Antivirus Programme Like Zone alarm Contains hidden SD Backdoor RD Which slows down the processor futher causing it to lose data's . Norton And McAfee are Useless antivirus programme that really kills the PC.
Pc-Cillin is good one but u can use AVG EURO COUP7.1 but its difficult to get try to get it from following site:www.softpedia.com
If u dont get dont worry , use AVG professinal edition 7.1 which is really good,
but AVG BLACK THUNDER is the best antivirus of all ,u cant get it frm anywhere or u cant get even a single word bout it on anysite even google cant give a word bout it. If u get lucky to use it then its da best.

AVG from Grisoft is very good and free!

If you want to buy one, then AVG also do a Professional version. You can upgrade from the free version easily.
McAffee is currently the leader in commercial programs.
Avoid Norton! It has got far too big and will often slow the machine down appreciably.
Don't forget that you will also need to protect yourself against spyware and Windows Defender from Microsoft is very good (and free). Although Windows has a firewall, you would be well advised to get separate firewall software (if it is not included in the anti-virus software). Zonealarm is a very good free one.

Consumers Reports just published a list of the best antivirus software in ther September issue.
They recommend "Bit Defender", it got their highest rating.
You can buy the issue , it is on the news stand now. There is also a lot of interesting information to read on spyware, viruses and worms.

I too use AVG but the buzz I hear lately is that NOD32 is the best..Would prevent five times more infections.
I don't like Norton cos it seriously slows down your system and it doesn't work well with other programs.

Mine personal advice is Nod32 or kaskerpy. But, nod32 is mine best choice. Norton is high on system resources, and having lots of issues these times. Macfee is alrite, but often, it gives lots of false alarm. Panda is crap on some computer. It is high on system resources. Nod32 is still mine preference choice of antivirus.
For free ones[Which are usually just as good], Antivir is mine choice. Good and easy on resource. Their paid version is cheap and also damn good.

My personal choice is Kaspersky...Why? It's the only AntiVirus that updates it's database every 3 hours...and has "realtime" protection...No other does this but them...Ever since I started using them I've NEVER had a single virus, trojan, worm, etc get into my computer...With realtime protection, it stopped it before they could even install....
