AntiVirus Software?

Karla asked:


I am so confused as to which antivirus software I should get. Right now I am debating about symantec and AVG. I really do not care about the price as long as it is under $100. With my computer I plan on watching shows online (not hulu) and I want to make sure that I don’t get any viruses while watching the shows. One of my computers got completely infected from watching five minutes of an anime episode. So please tell me what to get.

    I do believe Kaspersky was voted number one in 2009-2010 by some computer site, cant remember.

    Symantec slows down your computer to much, try Vipre if you dont like Kaspersky

    You should get Avira Antivirus and get the free edition (if you don’t wanna pay for it; the free edition has most of the security stuff, but not all), the security suite costs under $100 ($39.95), and it’s a relaly good antivirus. When compared to Norton, Norton hardly removes anything and Avira can detect almost everything. Get Avira Antivirus. I recommend! Oh, and to go with Avira get Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes can remove any source of adware, and I recommend it too. I use Malwarebytes normally to see if anythings up with my system. If you get Malwarebytes, don’t run it when antivirus software when it’s running; it will clash with the antivirus program and cause it to not work.
    Hope this helps you!

    Panda AV is one of the best, from last I heard, during a test that PC Mag did, everything was stopped by Panda from malicious code to spyware to keyloggers. Though is had a slower scan and thus that hurt it’s outcome rating. Eset Nod32 AV is also recognized as one of the best out there also. I personally recommend that you choose between these two.
