What virus scanner do u use in computers?

Well... I use Microsoft Security Essentials it does the job done and well too :D.It's free and it doesn't give false positives either.If you are an advanced user you might try Comodo Internet Security it's good too and has an x64 native version for x64 users.I'm waiting for version 5 than I'll jump back to play with some more Comodo.I miss Comodo and I like the new features that are coming in v5.Oh yea... Comodo Internet Security is free, too.What I like about it is that it has a very good firewall and about false positives, if it gives, though usually not, you can chose ignore or false alert(not a virus) and no more bothering.

NOD32, not free but for me it is. I've never had much luck with AVG and that kind of products. No, give me my nod32. :)

On my home pc I have AVG as I also prefer it. It is free and is quite effective and has updates delivered quite often. I agree with you that it is very effective. On my office laptop we have Trend Micro anti-virus. Of course, this is a paid anti virus so that much more effective!! Cheers! Ram

Currently i am using microsoft security essentials but i like AVG internet security edition the most....

I used AVG too, I find it a pretty good program to use as it doesn't overload my PC and scanning is very effective. Do remember to update it regularly though.

My husband and I use Rising antivirus. It works really well for our system. When we used AVG his computer kept getting trojan horses so we switched because this had good reviews on download.com and it is free as well.

I am using Norton Antivirus for my system and windows defender as a antispyware.. it does load my system but security wise it's the best :-)

I use AVG free which seems to work great. I've only encountered a virus once ifn the past few years and AVG removed it. I have AVG set to scan my hard drive every day at noon. If your friends computers have viruses, why don't you get them to use AVG or some other software? I would stop borrowing from them unless they start cleaning their drives and/or stop visiting questionable sites.

Hi friends finally I am back to MyLot after a long gap. Virus Scanner, I suggest AVG or Norton if your computer has high amount of resources. Now a days many anti virus scanners like McAfee are doing a good job.

I use an Apple Imac computer, and have never had a virus to date. So I have no virus scanning software. The other aspect is that I don't download any movies, music, or software illegally. That is typically how people get viruses, by downloading from shifty pirate cites.

I use AVG too. I migrated to this Anti virus from Norton and Quick Heal... They were posing a hell lot of issues with Win XP and used most of the CPU. Though I am not that satisfied with the performance of AVG but still happy that it has kept me away from normal PC hazards for over a year now. Cheers. Sids

Well I was using AVG but now I am using Avast and I like it so much more and the daily updates help to.

Guys I read many comments for AVG, Avira, Avast, Nortan, Mcaffe.. I dont know why do you guys use such antivirus apps.. They suck!!! Use Kaspersky and ESET Nod 32. They are the best..

Eset is by far The Best for both 32 and 64 bit machines and its very easy to handle and auto updates whenever you get online

Hi, AVG is very good. But at times it does not detect some viruses. That may give a problem in the long run. Just check it out.

I've used the Pro version of AVG, Avira,and Avast. But then I've changed to Kaspersky 2010 because it has higher detection rate than AVG, Avira and Avast but it uses a lot of RAM when scanning. Recently I've changed to Bit Defender Total Secutiry 2010 which also weighs down my computer but with more application than Kaspersky and have a high detection as Kaspersky. I think I'll change to Kaspersky PURE next. For free anti virus, i think AVG is the right choice and there's also Avira. But I've heard about free anti virus that uses cloud computing technology recently e.g Panda Cloud antivirus and immunet pro but haven't tested it yet.

It would be better if you go pro. Pro means real time scanning unlike the free version which need manual scanning. And you might also wanna install malwarebytes. It has a free version, but Pro is the recommended (as any). I'm using those.

i,m using antivirus is smadav it made from my country , that is good for scanner for the virus in my computer as well .

i dnt think avg is best because avg consume more power norton also i use internet security kaspersky 2011 i was using avg because its free and many people use it but now these days people choice is kis 2011(kaspersky internet security ). but its not free online but you can get trail version online its great internet security + anti virus before i had alot of virus when i installed kis this anti virus gt thousands of virus now before i was using avg but he didn't detect any virus but updated kaspersky get all virus because its updated so latest virus easy kis can scan i prefer you guys also use kaspersky because it take less ram than avg and its also easy to use this a best anti virus i ever used i am using kaspersky since 2 years its the best

Yes AVG is great virus scanner and is free.. did this slow the internet performance or not..?
