Hello,

Just restored my old PC and upgraded it to Win7 for work.

Basically looking for free anti-virus software and just wanting someone help on choosing a decent piece of software and wondering which one(s) are currently worth D/Ling.

Josh.

Microsoft security essentials is pretty good

I'm using avast! free since I had XP
Was always satisfied with it Wink

McGherkin · 2011-10-26, 23:10

I use avast, it has never picked a single thing up, although it has blocked a few malicious URLs. Either I have no viruses whatsoever or something's overridden Avast and made it return clear results Tongue

Malwarebytes is good too.

AVG 2012 ftw very gd

Josh · 2011-10-27, 00:00

Been solved, went with Comodo Internet Security.

I'm pretty sure, Elmo, Street and I would recommend COMODO to anyone wanting a good antivirus software.

It just so happens to be free which is great news!

Yeah, i would recommend Microsoft Security Essentials, together with Commodo Firewall.

I bloody hate comodo, it is soo annoying Tongue

Knight · 2011-10-27, 00:54

I use Avast on all 4 of my machines, love it

True but if you have an infestation download the free trial and destroy everything like I do Tongue

Street · 2011-10-27, 11:27

If you have Comodo you don't need MBAM to destroy everything in the first place unless you're a complete idiot and go on blatantly virus infested sites or download them yourself.

Good shout Josh Smile

That's now 4/5 of the TC Management team who use Comodo Tongue

Never ever bothered with anti-virus, cause more headaches than they solve.

Just watch what sites you go on Wink

Nitros · 2011-10-28, 18:24

Avast works nice for me.

Zipppy · 2011-10-28, 18:29

same as Nitros. My only complaint about avast, as it's hard to add exceptions to certain files. It thought a vanilla copy of Nascar 2003 was a virus.

Avast aswell. Does the job while never annoying me with useless pop ups or sounds.

I have an awesome program you need to try...

Malibu · 2011-10-28, 23:22

Nod32
