Antivirus Poll - 2010 (Jan - Jun)

I also think that it is not fair to compare free AVs and paid ones (or hybrids), forking out the money is the real test for consensus, and Eset is doing very well notwithstanding its arguable performances lately.

 

Good Evening ! Currently using G-Data & Prevx both working in perfect harmony, so far! Sincerely...Securon

 

Prevx & AppGuard

Light and effective for gaming.

 

Only one: Avira AntiVir Premium

 

I am going with the signature....

 

None
Comodo Defense+ is just fine.

 

If Avast were a person.. I would have sex with it.. Just sayin'.

 

I think that all these polls will show is that free solutions tend to most popular,I wonder why that is?(lol)

 

you wouldn't even mind which gender??

 

McAfee Total Protection 4.0 0n Win 7 x64

 

None.

 

I have been using ClamWin which is a version of ClamAV for MS Windows for years and am still feeling satisfied with it. The followings are some of its advantages and disadvantages according to my experience.

Advantages

1. Open Source
2. Regular Virus Database Update
3. Low Memory Footprint
4. Low False Positive

Disadvantages

1. No On-Access Scan

 

Oh my god

 

Norton 2010 is excelent is kicking hard in the latest test but my 30 days trial ended and now another excelent choice MSE excelent protection, some guys believe that because they pay $ they have better protection, deadly wrong.

 

MSE ftw!!

 

Kaspersky with ThreatFire. Threatfire is FREE! And ads an extra layer of protection, without using heavy resources!

 

i switched to avast is5 now from norton nis2010...i liked norton a lot especially the 2010 suite but i like avast 5 even more

 

I did the exact opposite if you, removed avast IS and now using NIS 2010

 

so do you like nis2010 better? just curious. not asking for a vs b unless you want to post over at avast id love to hear what you think. i like nis2010 still and if i have a major issue with avast ill go back again before anything else at this point. though i bought 3 3 year lic's for avast with the 50% off it was a great price so i grabbed them. and the wife likes the new avast which is nice lol..she didnt like norton as much for whatever reason (she had bad past experiences with them most likely just from that)

 

Avira Premium Security Suite

 

Currentply using Kaspesky Internet Security at home and Avast, Comodo Internet Security and Nod 32 at work. Seems to me Kaspersky is the best paid sollution and Avast, the best free sollution.

 

got 2 computers one has kaspersky and other has online armor ++ voted kaspersky though

 

Actually, i keep changing AV too often.

 

Avira 9 custom install without guard,and with root kit detection and context menu (right click) scan,is as near perfect for my set-up as I can find.

 

It depends on what computer I use.

Generally ESET NOD32 v 4 + MalwareBytes' AntiMalware.
I also use Gdata antivirus 2010 or Avira antivirus premium 9.x in two other different computers

I have installed PREVX safeonline on two machines of mine and it plays well with the above mentioned antivirus (it is no longer conflicting with MBAM scanning and this make me happy enough )

As for a scanner on demand: a-squared free is my choice (in despite of some false positives)

Cheers
