| Heya all,
"Which is the best anti-virus, which is the worst?" And of course, I always get different opinions. I get different and strange answers from a lot of forums and websites. So i would like to ask you guys for detailed explanation. If you are not busy and have time, please answer me which is the best antivirus and why. Faults and shortcomings, and advantages too.
Avast, Avira, AVG, Kaspersky, NOD 32, Norton, etc..
Thanks Norton is a huge product and can cause a lot of slowness on a machine that can't handle it, takes too many resources.
AVG is known for false positives and corrupts itself when updating.
I use Avira on both my Desktop and laptop, it's small, doesn't hog my CPU and updates smoothly. Doesn't ask me, just updates itself when my wireless connects. I use Kaspersky Internet Security, it's light weight and makes me feel secure with it's security features.
It also has this "safe run" feature which allow me to sandbox any applications, so it saves me time from having to boot up my VM when I want to test if a website is malicious.
Their malicious URL blocking features is also quite good. It saved me a couple of times. I have been using Avast free home version for close to 10yrs and love it. I have never had a problem and its caught many virus and never had a major infection. I reccomend it to all my customers.
I agree with Belahzur about Norton, McAfee is the same way they will hog your system resources. For worst AV I´m afraid I have to go with the open source stuff like Clamwin. No real time protection and sucking detection rates. And I´m a huge fan of open source stuff, but I wouldn´t touch an open source AV with a 10 feet pole.

For a good Antivirus you shoud try
ClamAV For Windows
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Antivirus/ClamAV.shtml I've been using Avast Free for about 8 months now & I really like it, very powerful boot-time scan, and I love the "new look" Avast v5 with it's sleek new GUI--I didn't care for the old "radio" GUI on prior versions. They also have a terrific user forum.
I used AVG prior to that, AVG became too much of a resource hog & too intrusive, with a lot of FP's, failed & corrupt installs/updates, etc. When it failed to prevent,detect, heal, delete or quarantine 2 infections in 3 months last summer, it was Adios AVG for me.
As for Norton, I read this quote some time ago that says it best, IMO--"Norton is about as useful to a computer user as a screen door is on a submerged submarine."
