What the best antivirus for internet security?

Kaspersky is rated cnet.com best anti-virus.



The good: Kaspersky Anti-Virus 7 sports an intuitive, fresh interface that is skinnable, offers excellent technical support, and easily vanquishes viruses, spyware, rootkits, phishing, and other malware.



The bad: Kaspersky Anti-Virus 7 can be slightly more expensive than the competition, and firewall protection is missing.



The bottom line: Kaspersky Anti-Virus 7 continues to outshine its competition with its ease of use combined with thorough antivirus protection.



Specs: License type: Complete package; Min processor type: Intel Pentium 300 MHz or higher (Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional SP 4 and higher),; Intel Pentium 300 MHz or higher (Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition SP 2 and higher),; Intel Pentium 300 MHz or higher (Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP 2 and higher);

there is no best ... try kaspersky go to website and go for the trial .. 30 days ...as well as nod32 ,...these are very good antivirus ... there is free i like avira again go to avira.com and try the version for your self ...

Ad Aware, Spy bot - search and destroy,Spy ware Doctor are some good spy ware removers. AVG Anti virus and McAfee virus scan Plus 2007 are also supposed to help a lot.check out http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-sAFtLsc8e... for more details.
Best AV for Internet Security??? Security-wise, Norton Internet Security is I think I can tell. But performance-wise, thumbs down. It eats a lot of memory.
Here you have some good recommendations.

I had tried several internet security softwares, but I am now using Trend Micro Internet Security for good. Others had missed out some viruses unlike this one, which catches all intruders so far.

Which is best antivirus+firewall+antispam all in one??

www.free.grisoft.com



for your anti-virus and anti-spyware



Zone Labs Zone Alarm for a firewall



Which is best antivirus+firewall+antispam all in one??moto guzzi



Use Zone alarm OR kaspersky v6 ( new version )



Which is best antivirus+firewall+antispam all in one??norton internet security 2008



Norton Internet Suite is the Best software for all ur problems...U need to Update weekly for latest definations



http://www.symantec.com/index.htm
well zone alarm free edition would be the best all in one.



but i suggest u use following for better protection.



(1)Anti virus -Avast (free)



(2)Antispyware -spywaredoctor or Ad-aware se pro,or spybot search



(3)firewall- Zonealarm (freee)
no such thing as a good all-in-one, the best adware/spyware removing software is free, ad-aware (www.lavasoft.de) and spybot search %26 destroy (www.spybot.info). I would probably just use the firewall built into windows because that's perfectly sufficient for home users, and as far as an antivirus i would probably go with clamav for a free one (www.clamav.net) or if you want to pay for one i would probably recommend norton, but it's quite a resource hog, mcaffee had gone down hill after they were bought out by network associates a few years ago, but that's another option.
http://yanswers.blogspot.com/2006/10/ess...
norton internet security would be top pick but can be a resource hog, seems 2007 is better with that problem
AVG Anit-Virusplus fire wall get`s rid of everything and is the best I have found I have 7.1 and upgraded to 7.5 on line.

Whats the best antivirus to protect my pc? and how to use firewall on my pc?

dear friends, i use photography sites a lot and every second week i get too many virus on my pc. my pc goes very slow and start taking ages to open a page, also it keeps trying to run cd drive and floppy as well very often.



could you please advice me what shall i do to overcome this problem?



and please guide me how to use firewall on my pc?



thanks in advance



Whats the best antivirus to protect my pc? and how to use firewall on my pc?network security



You should use Norton Antivirus it's the BEST!



If you're running win XP or newer you have a firewall turned on by defalt. Do not use it do not trust it. Go out and buy Nortons Firewall (all listed on the url I gave) DO NOT USE Zonealarm Firewall it's a peace of JUNK that does not work and it does not keep out hackers.



If you're going to alot of photography sites then most like you DON'T have Virus on you're PC you have spyware. Programs Nortons will help to some live delete thoes programs but will not delete all of them. Do a yahoo search on spyware and it will bring up alot of spyware Remover programs most of wich are free.



Spybot Search and Destroy (S%26D) is a good program to use to speed up you're PC. From safer-networking it's the last url I listed.



Whats the best antivirus to protect my pc? and how to use firewall on my pc?norton internet security

Whats the best antivirus program thats affordable?

Webroot AntiVirus With AntiSpyware %26 Firewall, formally known as Webroot's Spysweeper with Anti-virus is the way to go.



The best software you should get is Webroot AntiVirus With AntiSpyware %26 Firewall, this software is too good and gets better everyday. This is ELITE software. It blocks over 455,000 definition threats, which contain multiple fringerprints with each(you can do the math). No other software can compete with that or come close for that matter. It catches everything: viruses, spyware, adware, malware, root kits, keyloggers, trojans, worms, and anything else. It also has active shields and a Firewall that learns from your useage. I've used them all and it is 2nd to none.



Don't waste your time with AVG, true sword, spybot, ad aware, CA, spyhunter, mcafee, superantispyware, avast, panda, kaspersky, spyware blaster, spyware guard, windows defender or anything of the sort. Stay away from anything that is FREE when it comes to spyware and antivirus. There is a reason why they are free. They are NOT good. I even guaranDAMNtee my answers and will help through IM if needed.



Whats the best antivirus program thats affordable?network



it's depend of your choice. If you choose the free one, you should try AVG-Free edition. Good, solid, and updated virus list.

Whats a good antivirus and adware removal software?

Personally I think Mcafee works great.



Spyware using a combination of spyware programs works great.



Such as Windows Defender 2.0 beta, Adware 6.0, and Spybot.



Also when running any spyware programs it's more efficent if you run them in "Windows Safe Mode with networking"



Whats a good antivirus and adware removal software?virus removal



Norton Internet Security is a good Antivirus.



Whats a good antivirus and adware removal software?anti virus protection



There is a software called Ad-Aware...It is by Lavasoft...search for it and you will be able to download it for free!! McAfee is a great antivirus software!!
BitDefender is one of the best.



http://www.bitdefender.com/
Use Mcafee, its the best it will scan for you and complete up-dates as well.
GO here, these are all good



http://dsvs.org



I use ad-aware, and Avast along with x cleaner.



Go here to get X-cleaner



http://tinyurl.com/2bvur



just run it don't save and it will run, clean it and remove itself also



when it asks if you want to create a system restore say no



Oh yea like the 2nd guy said do it in Safe Mode w/Networking



Hit F8 when turning on your pc and highlight SM w/ Networking using the arrow keys

Why does Norton AntiVirus have helpless help pages?

(A; Its part of their security program.)



I have to disable Norton from the tray icon to check my Email via OutLookExpress.



Why can't Norton give it up automatically for me?



Why does Norton AntiVirus have helpless help pages?virus



When norton had their update for 2005- security level was set hig- check internet security settings and lower it down. It's not actually allowing outlook express to connect to the internet.



Why does Norton AntiVirus have helpless help pages?anti virus



got it. the firewall is preventing you from sending and recieving.



1. open the norton console (click on tray icon) and click on the personal firewall. Then click on the configure button.



2. on the window that pops up, click on the tab that says programs. There will be a list of all the programs that require approval from the firewall to access the internet. scroll through the list and find outlook and highlight it. then at the bottom click on the modify button. on the window that pops up make sure the selection is set to automatically configure internet access (recommended).



this should remedy the problem, but if it doesn't then there are 2 more things to try. you could disable nortons firewall (if you have windows xp sp2, you can turn on windows built in firewall). If that doesn't work the go with a uninstall/reinstall of the app.



I'll check you question tommorrow to see you had any luck.

Help please: My antivirus is symantec...?

I know it sucks(everyone tells me) and it wasn't me who put it, anyway...



I want to get rid of it and put a new one but when i go to add/remove programs the little box that says change/remove has dissappeared.That's because(i think) my cousin tried a couple of times to get rid of it to install a new one but it wouldn't go.So now i can't get it off and i probably have some virus or bug in my system..



What should i do?

Hi, is the system still running the antivirus? This is what u can do.

When my norton antivirus expires do i have to renew,can't I just reinstall it?

You can't renew it, or reinstall it, but if you buy the new version of Norton it'll replace the old one so don't need to uninstall it. I don't recommend getting Norton. First: I experience lots of trouble this is my 4th year using it, it worked fine after a while but later it stops working, it fails, I'm using Norton Internet Security, and it failed like in a month, and can't return it for a refund. Second: is that Norton slows down your computer by a lot. Norton is like a scam, it costs like 50 dollars and works for 365 days and it'll just fail on you in few days. I update my Norton daily or whenever it tells me to and Norton remains (X) and I can't even download a update because it doesn't let me and it says Norton is corrupted and my other computer works fine.



When my norton antivirus expires do i have to renew,can't I just reinstall it?vista



When an anti-virus subscription expires, it will no longer update with new virus signature definations.



The "black-hats" are creating new viruses and other malware each and every hour every day 24 / 7. Without updates to detect these new malwares, a un-updatable anti-virus soon becomes worthless.



If you are looking for a good, free anti-virus, I would suggest Avira AntiVir庐 PersonalEdition Classic. It has excellent heuristics, a virus detection rate that is better than most "paid-for" anti-virus programs and is light on using your computer's resources. Uses less then 10 MB RAM on my machine. And did I mention that it's free!



Download here:



http://www.free-av.com/



Just remember that you must un-install your Norton (even if it is expired) before you install ANY other anti-virus program.



Good luck.

Trouble removing Norton Antivirus and installing McaFee...?

I got my computer in late 2003 and installed NAV 2004 (actually the geeksquad did). Now since my internet provider provides free McaFee software I went to install it but could not since i still had norton, or so it claimed. I had long ago uninstalled 2004 and still have the disk but on the add/remove programs list it says 2003 and also norton wmi update. The 2003 only has a change option and i cannot remove the update. I get an error saying the network source isn't available and stuff about an alternate path. I really want to get this off and get McaFee on and the only thing I know is that there is three norton folders in the "my computer" section and also a symantec folder. I have Windows XP SP1 by the way. Any help is greatly appreciated and if more information is need just ask. Thanks.

Trouble removing Norton Antivirus and installing McaFee...?antivirus download



I would go to the Symantec Website and download the Norton Removal Tool. Use this to remove norton completely, before trying to install another antivirus program. Sadly to say you are probably going to have the same problem removing McAfee as well. There are much better free antiviruses out here. Try AVG, Avast, or Antivir. You won't be disappointed. Oh, well its your choice. But regardless of your decision, I would highly recommend that you download service pack 2 for XP, in order to patch the security flaws in sp1. This will also greatly aid in protecting your pc from viruses and malware.



Good Luck!

Problem with symentac antivirus software?

iam using symantec anti virus software. the scan history shows several scanning process going on. i was told to unload service so that whatever process is going on, it will stop.but the reply i got was scanning going on so cannot unload service.

please help me.



iam not so well versed with all these



thank you



Problem with symentac antivirus software?



Nortons is dynamite, the tales of woes and catastrophes connected wit it are legendary.



Symantec are supposed to have a program on their site for completely un-installing their product. I suggest you downlaod this,runit and get rid of every scrap of the it and then think real hard as to whether you want to put it back on your machine.



Once you have got rid of it, go to one of the online virus scanners and have your machine cleaned of any nasties.



If it came with your machine I'd ditch it. If you had the misfortune to pay good money for it I'd troll their websites and forums before putting it back on.

Abt AVG, the antivirus software?antivirus programs



how bad do you want a virus in you pc? if you don't keep your definitions up to date it won't be long before you asking another question in here "how do i get rid of this virus" New Virus are coming out daily, so solution to these virus's are coming out daily. When your asking the next question don't forget to mention that you couldn't be bothered to keep your definitions up to date, and then someone might say to sad to bad. It don't take long to do so make it a part of you log off or log on. I scan my pc for antispware evertime i log off and delete browsing history, house keeping is important to a pc.It is only as good as the operator.
You can last a while without the updater, the updater mostly just updates drivers and fixes bugs so you'll be find if every month you download all the updates.
you can get protection for old viruses. THere are daily updates because there are always new viruses. If you don't update, you will not be protected from new threats.

Contact Symantics about the problem and see if they will refund your money. If not then contact your credit card company and stop the payment.



Your best bet is to go to http://www.spybot.com and download spybot search and destroy. It's a very good free program

AVG should work on Win 98 machine as well as Win XP. Not sure what your problem is but your AVG installation maybe corrupted. You should uninstall AVG and reinstall it again to see if the problem goes away. If not try this free antivirus below, it works much better than avg or avast

Question about the antivirus software PC-cillin...?

I just bought Trend Micro's PC-cillin Internet Security software. And there is a place where it quarantines infected files. There is an option to delete them. Does that mean it deletes from the quarantine list, and lets them keep infecting, OR does it mean you delete them completely from you computer? HELP!



Question about the antivirus software PC-cillin...?anti virus scan



When you delete from quarantine, it permanently deletes the actual file, which is the best solution.



Question about the antivirus software PC-cillin...?ariel



I always deleted them...sometimes it will give you a warning if you delete them...i never deleted those. they will stay quarantined..so, they wont effect your computer!



there should be a help desk to call...try them...or their website
Quarantined files are usually infected with some kind of virus or other bad thing. They are placed into a special holding area called quarantine. While in quarantine, they are not deleted, but they are also not able to be opened or run so that they cannot spread whatever nastiness they have to the rest of your system. If you cannot clean a file that is in quarantine, the best bet is to delete it. Its also a backup, I mean that if you have accidenly delete a file, you can always return the file to normal

Why is the antivirus not embedded in the OS when the latter is installed?

When Windows first came out there were not all these Malware problems. As they started to occur some people started writing protection for them and later started selling the 'anti-virus' software.



Now that there are companies selling Anti-virus software Microsoft would be sued by all the 'cry babies' for creating another 'monopoly' and for putting the Anti-virus companies out of business.

There will be no problem if you have two registration keys. I don't use Nortons, but I am sure they will only allow you to install in one PC. As if they don't earn enough money, they will charge you for each PC.



Minddoctor, France
If you bought the norton antivirus cd you should be able to install it on as many computers as you want. If the Norton Antivirus came preinstalled on your computer than you have to find the setup program for it and then burn it onto a disc.
