avira free with which antispyware?

can you recommend a free antispyware product, to work alongside avira free, preferably without real-time protection, with a good and accurate (few false positives) detection rate

 

Superantispyware or Spybot

 

MalwarebytesAntimalware---free!

SuperantiSpyware--free!

I use both,with Antivir 8 free!

No problems, no worries

 

I have AntiVir Premium and I use Threatfire for back-up surprises.

 

Avira will cover spyware protection at a certain level because the AV-s differ in
the way they name the malware but SAS or MBAM or both are more then a must in addition. Spyware terminator will do some work but it is very week in terms of detection and terribly useless in terms of cleaning. Avast will be a more complete AV for it will cover all .

 

I expect to be shouted down, but I use Comodo BoClean (realtime protection!) with Avira free, and I feel very well protected. Haven't had a malware incident in I can't remember when.

I also use Online Armor, keep my data on a NAS, and backup regularly with Paragon Drive Backup.

 

I have Avira Free (High Hueristics), Threatfire(level 3) and the windows FW running on a Win XP Home pc and it runs great. Avira free will catch some spyware and threatfire will catch the rest. For on-demand SAS, MBAM or A2 square.

You probably dont need an AS, but if you want to use one, I would go for A Squared.

Most spyware is picked up by surfing questionable websites,so keep this in mind as well. I Never have any spyware found when doing a scan,as I never frequent questionable websites either.

Common sense is the "best protection" you can have,PERIOD!

 

For real time scanning alongside avira I would recommend Windows Defender followed by Spyware Terminator.

 

Thats so boring d00d, live a lil

 

lol i dont surf all that safe but my comp is clean

 

MBAM will be my choice and the new version of A2 free for on-demand scanning.

Peace.

 

I have Avira paid and my son has the free,i had a look at his computer last night because it run slow.I did a search for things in add remove which i could not remove,and found they were spyware,I installed Superantispyware and it found 209 traces

 

I have Avira free, and once a week i scan my system SAS and MBAM (working only on-demand) - these application never found any spyware/malware on my system but I also using Online Armor with BlueTack Lists (spyware, hijacked, iana, proxy, adTracker, dshield, education list) and MVPS HOSTS File and Opera/FF is my browser, maybe this is the reason

 

I like MBAM. I saw that a lot of security clean up forums used it, so I knew it was the one for me. I haven't regretted my decision.

 

Youngsters and pr0n dont mix well

 

Sorry no pr0n ,he is not of that age.Mainly found stuff like Mirar etc

 

I confess, it was a bad joke sorry

 

I dont really use Anti-spywares that much anymore! I just use Avira with Sandboxie.

 

Avira Free or Paid?

 

IMO, MBAM has not so good detections rate (rare false positives) and A-SQUARED has great detections rate with often false positives. I am using A-SQUARED. For inexperienced user recommend MBAM, for experienced A-SQUARED.

 

actually, MBAM has some of the best detection rates there is for antispyware applications.

 

Agreed, you may get some FPs with A Squared, but its in a league of its own - miles better than anything else.

A squared and Avira are the best AM scanners on the market, so used in combination, you should be safe.

If you are ever unsure as to wether you have a FP, try one of the many multi engine web based scanners out there such as http://virusscan.jotti.org and make your own mind up.

 

Are you talking about A-squared Free or A-squared Anti-Malware?
