I found EZ Antivirus the best. Why? because it even scans for worms and it doesn't make the computer slow and you can have a trial version of 1 year. After that you can decide if you want to buy. Good luck. :)

NOD32 is by far the best.\n\nIt uses very little RAM and has the best scanning results.\n\nBelow is a section from the press link below:\n\n"Microsoft Release Labs Renews Its License With Eset’s NOD32 Anti-Virus Software\nNOD32 Selected to Protect Microsoft Software from Viruses and Worms for the Fourth Year"\n\nIf Microsoft pays for it then you know it's gotta be good.

The best anti-virus is *common sense.*\n\nNot even Norton can protect you:\nhttp://www.jinx.com/scripts/details.asp?affid=-1&productID=219

AVG Free Anti-Virus made by Grisoft is one of the best solutions on the market, http://free.grisoft.com/ they also sell enterprise level protection to corporations which is why they can give away the Home Edition.\n\nFor a Firewall (always have your PC behind a router) but for a software solution I like the Kerio Personal Firewall, http://www.snapfiles.com/get/keriofirewall.html\n\nFor spyware protection get all of the following:\n\nAdaware SE Personal, http://www.lavasoft.com/\nMS Antispyware Beta, http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx\nSpybot S&D, http://www.safer-networking.com/\nSpywareBlaster, http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/

Well... no free Anti-Virus is perfect...\n\nAvast is decent, and has alot of features but it's SLOW and detection isn't that great.\n\nAntiVir Classic offers Active Guard  but no email guard and it sometimes has false detections for trojans.\n\nAVG offers On-Demand scanning and Email but it doesn't open archives and can only select the files most likely to be infected.\n\nBitDefender is a very trusted Anti-virus and offers a free version, but it doesn't have active guard.\n\nClamWin is ok and opensourced.. but you have to set it to auto remove things, and it doesn't have active scanner unless you go to Sourceforge.net and download WinPooch to use with it.\n---\n\nPersonally I use AntiVir as my active guard and Bitdefender \n\nFree as my On-demand back up scanner...And Portableapps.com \n\nClamWin for my USB so I can take a AntiVirus with me as I go.

I have a few Free Antivirus programs I can reccomend:\n\nhttp://www.avast.com/ avast!\nhttp://www.free-av.com/ AntiVir HBEDV\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/ AVG Free Edition\n\nAlso, if your willing to experiment:\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/onecare/default.mspx Windows OneCare Beta\n\nIf you feel like paying -- I am VERY satisfied with the current version of Norton Systemworks.  (http://www.symantec.com/home_homeoffice/products/system_performance/nsw2006 ).  This program is worth every cent, you won't be sorry!

You're very welcome, I am glad that I was able to help you.  Now on to the issue at hand.  That depends, if you paid for eTrust then by all means you should use it.  If however you are using the trial, I would get rid of it and use AVG.  I think AVG is a better option for home users because it is free and does automatic updates.  There are other free options like Anti-Vir which has a better scanning engine but does not support automatic updates and Avast! which in most respects is equal to AVG.  I am using AVG right now and it has never let me down and on the rare occasion that a virus made it onto my system (it happens to the best of us), AVG stopped the virus in its tracks before it launched.\n\nWhatever you decide to do, don't use two anti-virus applications as they may conflict with each other.  As long as you did not pay for eTrust I would stick with AVG, in my opinion there is no better free option, in fact, I'd say AVG is the best period, free or not.

McAfee is the best. It automaticaly updates itself when ever the update is available on the internet. It means that ur always safe from all new viruses too.

Well if you have some Money to spend you can choose between Norton and McAfee both of them are pretty good.\nThen there are others like quickheal.\nHowever if you dont want to spend money and want a good antivirus then try AVG antivirus.\nDownload it free from http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5\nThere are some others that you can get from download.com however I'll suggest you to go for any of the above mentioned ones as I've tried and tested all.

Well, Sophos is OK. Only OK. And it's not free. The service it gives is much less than it costs.\n\nIf u r looking for a good antivirus go for Norton, Trend Micro or Mcafee.

I also have Trend Micro and it's very good for Antivirus.  I suggest Adware, Spybot or Microsoft's Antispyware.  Try the link below to PCWorl.com where you can choose which one you wan to use.

The list of anti-virus proggie grow every day.  New companies are getting into the internet security business, all claiming to be better than one another.  I repair PCs for a living, and I deal with virii and spyware on a daily basis.  It is a big help to me to be able to have programs at my fingertips that will help me get the job done.  The top 4 names are:\nNorton\nMcAfee\nAVG\nAvast!\n\nHere's how they break down, in my experience:\nNorton-  This is an okay product if you have a very powerful computer.  It's removal ability is great, but it sometimes lets things slip by unnoticed.  Very slow in safe mode, which is the ideal way of removing an infection that is already on the computer.  There is a cost for the license.\n\nMcAfee-  This product is average in every way.  Nothing outstanding about it, but it is still better than Norton...barely.  Again, tough to run in safe mode.  Uses a lot of resources.  There is a fee for renewing the agreement.\n\nAvast!-  has a free edition.  It is one of the better suites availible for free.  The pro edition is well rounded and very trustworthy.  Runs pretty well in safe mode.  Great detection, and removal.  The pro edition has a license fee, but it is actually worth paying for.  Maybe the 2nd best in the PC world.\n\nAVG- The free edition of AVG is the number one anti-virus program in the world for one reason alone:  IT WORKS!!!  It is the easiest to operate, the fastest, most thorough and works as well in safe mode as it does in active mode.  The updates are free forever.  There is also a pro edition which put a few more excellent tools at your fingertips.  There is a cost for pro, but like Avast, it is well worth every dime you spend.  \n\nThere you have it.  But, a few points to ponder before I go:  Any anti-virus software will be dramatically improved by your surfing habits.  Things like not allowing active script to run, accomplished in Internet Options>advanced.  Always type in the addresses in your browser instead of clicking links in your email.  Watch where you surf, and how you download from Peer-to-Peer networks like Gnutella.  I would suggest as your first move to switch your browser to Mozilla Firefox.  I have NEVER contracted a virus while surfing since switching to Firefox, and neither has anyone that I have switched to it from the "Big Blue E".  Good luck, and happy surfing!
