HOw good is Trend Antivirus?

Trend is good, but not great.  You would really be better off with a better known antivirus like Symantec or McAfee.  These get updated definitions and patches much faster than Trend.

AVG gets great reviews. You should never use two anti-virus programs at the same time. \n\nThink of it like having two goalies trying to protect a single soccer net -- they are going to get in each others way and some balls will get through. ;o)

It is great and it also uses less memory than Norton. I stopped using Norton and Use AVG. It's a good choice. The virus signatures are updated daily so you will be protected well. I've been using the free version for about a year now and am virus free.\n\nUninstall Norton Antivirus and reboot the PC before loading AVG. \n\nI also use Microsofts free spyware preventer. It is in beta. Load this program, too.

Have you tried AVG anti-virus, it's free, and does a decent job.

AVG Is Good When compared to other free. Its Scanning Is 99% foolproof, but is rather slow.

trendmicro.com has a program called housecall, run it since it's not on your computer it can't be infected and corrupted like a few others let it run and see what the results are

Go here;\nhttp://www.av-comparatives.org/ \nand click "Comparatives" on the left menu.\nBTW Spybot is NOT an antivirus as someone suggested. The mis-information that the kids on here give out is incredible!\nGood luck.

It depends on the market...\nIf you go for a paid anti-virus it might be better and if you go for a free one it can be as good as the paid one..\nI use AVG Anti Virus the free version of it which stops most viruses because of the regular update and its very user friendly..The other paid Anti virus are slow and slows your computer down a lot and you have to pay for it but you can geta  free trial if you want.

Hi there,\n\nInstead of all these "Mine is better than yours" answers that go on around here, I'll instead answer with the facts.\n\nQuite simply - Yes, Norton IS much better than AVG and Avast plus any other free utilities.\n\nLooking at current protection ratings, AVG scores a lowly 90% protection against all known viruses, whilst Avast comes in at 92%. This means they are letting through one in every ten viruses - pretty shocking.\n\nNorton on the other hand is protecting against something like 98.3% of all known viruses - a much better score.  However as people have mentioned, Norton can be known for being a very heavy program which can tend to slow down certain machines. However, if you are not showing any of these slowdown symptoms then I wouldn't worry too much.\n\nI honestly wouldn't waste your time with programs such as Spybot and Adaware.  These used to be great programs a couple of years ago but have now been overtaken and left behind by other programs with next generation approaches.\n\nOne scary fact is if you have AVG, Spybot and Adaware installed and up-to-date, then you are only protected from 60% of all known malware (viruses, spyware, adware, trojans, etc).\n\nIf you would be interested in other Security products that are better than Norton, you should try either Prevx1, Kaspersky or F-Secure who all score over a 99% protection rating.

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.

Hi, you had one mighty big answer to get through...lol..\nsomeone else recomended trend mico house call, it is good for free scan and removal, but you can also get a free 90 day trial on trend micro pc cillin, there are other free trail programs available as well from microsoft, just go to this microsft site for their free trial offers on different products  ..http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/viruses/wsc/en-us/default.mspx  , panda, Mcafee, pc cillin, \nF-secure, are free trial some for 30 days or 90... I would not recomend Norton or Mcafee, I have just uninstalled Norton after two years of having this product, it does not detect and delete all viruses and trojans, I found it useless to rely on this to fully protect pc from such.......I use spyware doctor, pc cillin, and will install a couple of other programs such as an easy clean, you can have more than one or two antivirus programs, not all are compatible with each other and some are...as far as trojan viruses go it would be a good idea to have a look at http://www.anti-trojan-software-reviews.com\n\nhttp://www.techsupportalert.com/free-vs-paid-av-part2.htm\nhttp://www.techsupportalert.com (home page) it lists all the best free ware untilities\n\nhttp://www.spywarewarrior.com good site for info on which antispyware programs are scam/rogue and which are legitimate
