Anti-virus?

My anti virus has only 5 days left, I need an antivirus that first of all is free and second of all does not make my system slow.



Any sugestions.........Thankyou



Anti-virus?product key



If you want a free anti-virus I recommend in order of popularity, but please choose the right one for you (install only one):



1. AVG Free



a. A simple interface (easier to use than Avast! and Avira)



b. Can detect about 82.82% of viruses



Cons: low virus detection



2. Avast!



a. Real-time protection



b. It has an option to delete a virus once found



c. Can detect about 87.46% of viruses.



Cons: Too many icons and confusing user interface



3. Avira AntiVir



a. It can detect malware better than Avast and AVG



b. It's cute umbrella icon



c. Can detect about 94.26% of viruses



Cons: A very sluggish update



Whatever you decide do not ever get Norton, it will slow down and ruin your computer. The best anti-virus you can get is Kaspersky or NOD32 (recent tests at av-comparatives.org).

I sent you a instalation file of a good anti-virus.
visit this website: www.trendmicro.com



it's an anti-malware site.
I will only disagree with the first answerer in one respect, I'd put Avast first. I've used Avast for nearly 5 years, and never had a virus get past it. Had several try, one recently in an email. Avast sounded an alarm when I opened my Outlook mail box. All I had to do was delete the suspect message, then empty the deleted box and it was gone.
You can try Ad Aware, Spy bot - search and destroy and Spy ware Doctor for some good spy ware removers. AVG Anti virus and McAfee virus scan are also supposed to help a lot to remove virus. check out http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-sAFtLsc8e... for more details.
Sam Adams is right. Follow his instructions.



good luck
Step 1: Install AVG.



Step 2: Visit the Google Pack website, and use it to download Spyware Doctor.



Step 3: Download and install ThreatFire.



Step 4: Make sure to use Mozilla's Firefox from here on out. Also, install the Adblock Plus add-on for it.



Step 5: Make sure that you have a firewall program on your computer. If you don't, install Comodo.
install avast its the best free anti-virus
