Can you tell me which free antivirus program is the best for PTR world.


Thanks

I use kaspersky anti virus , and I am very happy about it.
Of course you should protect your computer with a firewall and antispyware software as well.
This is what I use:

-kaspersky
-ez firewall
-firefox with noscript and adblock extensions
-spywareblaster
-spybot s&d ( great immunizer )
-adaware , for spyware scan

With all this installed , I have a great protection and I never encounter any problems.
The kaspersky anti virus is great because it doesn't use to much ram and cpu, but still has a great protection.

AVG Antivirus
AVG Anti-virus software is one of the best free programs. Download, Install and then Set up AVG for automatic updates at 1 day intervals for Free.

Also set it to automatically scan your hard drive once every 24hours during the time most convenuient for you.

I recommend Antivir.

you can select english language on the left side.

Just be careful. A lot of proclaimed "anti-virus" protectors are actually viruses! Gasp!! What irony.

you?re right, but it is from germany and I use it since many years and with me thousands of people. don?t care, antivir is no virus.

I use AVG. www.grisoft.com

Besides anti-virus you need some good spyware and malware programs. Look up the free Microsoft antispyware. Look up ewido for malware.

Browser
Firefox

Anti Spyware
Spyware Doctor
Spyware Search & Destroy

Firewall
Sygate Firewall Choose mirror

AVG Free firewall choose avg71free_375a691.exe

got it all = zero problems

Avast is the best free antivirus out there. As good as if not better than commercial AVs.

same here for antivir,

this one caught stuff avg missed





oops quoted the wrong person

Kaspersky is probably the best. Although I don't believe it's free if you want updates.

I recommend AVG free antivirus for your personal computer. We have a more robust version of AVG being used on all of our thousands of servers where I work and its provides excellent protection.

Lol with all those + antispyware, + adware and other stuff.
Use Zone Alarm imho.
Very good, doesnt eat a lot of Ram.

EDITED
Also, to keep your pc clean and legit, and to optimize all setting im using Tune Up Utilities 06. You can download it from www.tune-up.com . Gl

it's cool! Thanks!
