56kb modem friendly AVs list?

Hi, searched a bit but still can't find a recent list of AVs that work well over a 56kb modem-esp. with small updates. Don't want one that never manages to update itself before the next update rolls out. Shouldn't affect web surfing speed much while updating. Naturally, top-notch protection desired, so forget about AVs that fall low on vb100's rap chart.

Avira has minuscule updates
if i were in your place, i would choose Avira

 

Webroot, Panda Cloud or Kingsoft Antivirus

 

Webroot and Panda or any cloud AV would take up a portion of the bandwidth constantly, so they might not be suitable in this case

 

Maybe you should consider using antiviruses that offers offline updates which you can download from another machine that isn't restricted on bandwidth and manually apply on your machine.

 

F-Prot is the best bet, cloud solutions are NOT the best bet with bandwidth limitations. So that eliminates Webroot. Kingsoft and Panda.

 

Dr.Web used to have pretty small updates back in the day. I'm not sure how that is now.

 

There is no constant connection to the cloud required with WSA, and the bandwidth used is very low compared to signature updates.

 

How is F-Prot these days by the way?

 

Wow dial up, i really thought i was one of the DSL/Cable late adopters.
Maybe you could try an AV-less setup and then have a good AV for On-Demand scans.

 

Very poor at best...

 

@PrevxHelp
Exactly.

 

@Noob
You talking about my connection and setup?....

 

@bloggingpig
TrendMicro Titanium is the way to go.

 

Go with avast. Avast updates are small and offline update procedure is also very easy. http://www.avast.com/download-update . Good luck.

 

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. Small updates of only the most prominent malware, and hitman pro on-demand scans.

 

Spot on

 

Yup MBAM is the one. Who is still using a 56kbs modem

 

Appguard and ShadowDefender. No Av needed.

 

MBAM is not an Av replacement.

 

Thats not answering the question.

 

People that has no better solution in their area.

 

Let me go fetch my time machine and see what I had on my Windows 98 computer.

 

I'd go with Avast. It even has a dial up option under updates in settings.

 

Anti-Malware / Malware, Malware = Broad range including Anti-Virus. You could be surprised to know MBAM is the top performer in rogue/spy-ware detection and out-performs many normal Anti-Virus programs, hence why youtube testers use it to do after checks.
