[SOLVED] Anti Virus Software

Mm. I'm sure you do.

I was an Avast user for two years, then switched to MSE a couple of months ago. There was nothing wrong with Avast, just the audible updating twice a day and the rate of false alarms was climbing. MSE updates silently, I have it to update and do a short scan daily when I know it's being used, it doesn't noticeably slow the PC. Microsoft outdid themselves last year, releasing Windows 7, MSE and Bing.

I have Beta tested Windows 7 for over a year. Using Avast 4.8 and now Avast 5. It is a Great free anti-virus. It works with XP, Vista and 7. You cant go wrong with it. I also use it on every machine I repair as well.

AVAST 5 for sure!

Norton will just choke your system

I used Avast as my main AV for two years, I agree, it is a really good product. I still use the latest version on Win 2K Pro, which hardly sees daylight anymore. I recently switched to MSE, but Malwarebytes found an ugly registry entry today. There's a strong chance that I'll switch back to Avast. But I liked 4.8 better, you know, the look and feel of it. I was used to it, hopefully, the protection isn't watered down. Welcome to the fourms, Vince, and hope you enjoy your stay here.
