Don't let the name AOL fool you. Active Virus Shield is made by Kaspersky which is one of top-rated anti-virus vendors in the world. In recent tests, the most popular free anti-virus, AVG, was only able to detect about 82% of a very large sample of viruses. On the other hand, Active Virus Shield was able to detect better than 99% in the same test. Full test chart is here: Active Virus Shield has excellent virus detection rates and is extremely light on using your computer resources. (6mb ram) Active Virus Shield detects and removes spyware, also. And it updates up to 15 times a day with new virus definitions, 7 days a week. Good stuff, free for everyone from:?
