Virus software

Hey guys looking for a bit of advice on virus/spyware software right now im currently using AVG but I seem to be having problems with it, so whats the best?

Cheers

I've got AVG, upgraded to the payed version a little while ago. Now got v8.5 and fine. Did have a problem a while ago and called them, advised me to call Microsoft, and again no problems all sorted.
You could try reinstalling it or if you do not have the 8.5 version get that.

Just by the by what problem do you have?

I think they all claim to be the best but for a very good free antivirus try Avast, its not a a system resource hogger and since i have used it i have been virus free. If you cant get your AVG sorted i would give it a go.

Its all sorted now, It was saying the firewall count not communicate with the driver or something

The best for me is Kaspersky

If thats all your running I recommend you get a program to tackle the spyware I use spybot search and destroy which works really well.

thats a fair bit of protection you got there-been told tho that if you have more than one doing the same job they can work against each other,just a thought.

Yeah they can conflict but all those are under the same product AVG (paid version)

OK What ANTI-virus software does everybody use.
ive recently tried NOD....which is decent      kazerspy which badly eats into your processing power, and Norton which to me seems brilliant as its very light on recourses

what does everybody else use.

i got a 2 year 3 pc licence of ebay for 16 notes for norton....worried it wont last long though.

We'll I've been usig Kaspersky for a while and it works fine, NOD it's very light on resourses but IMO it's not that good. Also I've tried Avast and AVG but didn't like. Norton & Mccafee are good I think but they eat more resourses than kas does I think. 

IMO kaspersky is the best one.

I have been using Avast Antivirus and I did not ever had a problem with it, its quite effective...

AVG all the way for me.

Norton just takes up far too much space and resources and Mcafee is just poo.
