I suggest you use AVG 8 free edition. You can download it from www.download.com. It is really reliable and it can detect most of the common virus and spy ware. You should learn hot manual delete files also because in case the antivirus detect it and cannot be deleted then thats the time you manual delete. You can use process explorer and hijack for finding malicious active running file.

The earlier response is correct. There's no single anti virus that can eliminate all viruses that exist in computer world. If got one like that, sure other company will bancrupt ; ) hehehe...By the way, you can try those free one like AVG can download from www.grisoft.com or Avast can be download from www.avast.com.

Well heres a question do you have verizon. If you do you can download norton threw them they have it for free. It works really good. Another thing is you'll probably have to reinstall what ever verison of windows or whatever you have to make it stop. So you'll want to back up what ever files that you have on you computer that want to keep before you do this. I hope this helps some. Happy Mylotting!!!!

I dislike norton, its expensive and in my experience it has a tendency to slow down the computer. No antivirus is 100% effective which is why its ideal to have two antivirus programs running on your computer. I currently us AVG, which is a free anitvirus interface that scans my computer daily. It does a good job, too. I also use Malwarebytes, which I run once a week. It catches malware and other nasty crap that AVG might have overlooked. I also run Spybot Search & Destroy once a week, to pick up whatever Malwarebytes and AVG might have left. They are all free, and work beautifully. My computer got infected with a huge nasty virus about a month ago, and using these three programs I was able to successfully remove all the viruses from my computer.

So far,the best antivirus for me is from ESET.com.it's free trial for 30 days. After 30 days it will expired and you have to install it back from the website. It's work fine on my computer. I have no problem at all some of the virus include malware and spyware.

No Antiviurs software can kill all of virus,the the lib of virus always update late,it always publish later than virus.So i just don't install any antivirus software in my computer,i just don't visit unknown site and don't download unknown application,the defense is better than kill.Before,i often scan my computer with software,when it found some virus,i just clean them,but it was not effective,some of them can't be clean,it is terrible,some virus can protect themselves,you kill one and anther can show,and it may download from internet automatic.So i suggest you can pay attention on defense.If you can't kill some virus,you just rebuild OS.

There is no anti-virus software which can remove all kind of viruses whether you ready to pay it or not. In my opinion , do not use any program you don't know, and reinstall your system when your system was infected.

I would suggest using AVAST or AVG. I think both are equally good.

sonustar hi I use free antivirus program AVG8 and it does remove all virus and I have had it now for some time and am quite satisfied with it. It has stopped any virus right away and it will either deleteit or clean it or put it in the quarantine vault. its much better thatn the ones you have to pay for and is entirely free too. It also scans my system every day for virus.

Once your computer got infected before you had the anti-virus software installed, 85% of the time it will not be healed or virus free anymore and the best thing to do is have it reformatted. I would advise you looking for an anti-virus software that has On-Access Protection and don't forget to setup your own firewall also.

Antivirus software is a software,which is used in our systems/laptops for protection from different kinds of viruses.Today we have more than 80,000 types of viruses, so we want one sofware to protect our system from this many viruses.This software deletes the virus in our system and if we have a firewall, it doesn't allows any kind of restricted sites into the system. I think bitdefender is good among all.

get Norton, it is worth paying for. It helps with most viruses. Is better then the other paid software. But for free, get Search & Destroy, it is the best you get for free. It find almost all the viruses on the computer including the really hard ones to find. The software is free

I removed new folder virus with Norton 360. I rate it well. Also there is no such anti-virus that is cure for all your system problems. It is better if you have multiple anti virus which you can install as and when needed. As for sites to download send me a PM.

I see what kind of viruses it is?This virus is call worm32 and sometimes brontok also doing the same by creating folder under folder and it take you a lot of storage space.The best thing to remove is you install Kaspersky Antivirus.You can download it any version at Kasperky.com.After you install it you can activate for a free trial and it valid for 30 days.After that period you must buy it in order to use it again.I have another tips for you, what about using for free trial 30 days and the you download again with another version and activate again for 30 days..You can save a lot man.
