Hi there,

Go to my business' website www.mat-computersolutions.com and check out the antivirus we have listed there....you can go to the website and download a free trial, we find this one the best thus far.  Its not intrusive and it works quite well...any computer questions, minti mail me...tech support is free...lol!

Hi there.

I have always used a great program called AVG however recently another member on Minti told me of an even better one called AVAST. It's totally free and is awesome, I have found it so much better than AVG . .

Here is a link for you to try . . . CLICK HERE

This program is also recommended by serveral leading banks . . . I hope this helps ..

cheers Kellz

I use AVG as well. Free version. Picks up almost anything. The thing is, people are always creating new viruses etc, so it has to be updatable. Norton does invade your whole system and slows it down a lot I have found. AVG works great, have also used avast and spydoctor I think it is for when something new has come up.

i always had avg.... so my suggestiong would be avg... free download from the net.... I download heaps of stuff and have no bugs on my computer, avg has found a few in certain things but avg grabs it and chucks it away...

Hope this helps.

i have avg 8.0 paid version. It has a surf shield, a link checker, firewall, spyware thingy, email checker and lots of other things. It is great. I have used other brands such as norton and Trend Micro PC cillin and have had lots of issues with them not blocking viruses properly (yes settings were done properly) and since i have been using AVG have had no issues at all!

Each to their own but

I have multiple firewalls and Nortons Security Center.  Apparently I have another software too, that is always running but never seen it yet.

I have Trend Micro Internet Security Pro on my Notebook and Norton on the PC and I have to say I much prefer Trend Micro. It's excellent at blocking pop-ups, unsafe website, emails etc. Your computer won't open up anything that isn't safe. That's my experience.

Here's the website for you to check out.
