    AVG is definately the best. My free edition blocks viruses, html viruses, etc. the second they (nearly) get into my laptop. I don’t even scan, but when I do, they come up negative. I trust AVG enough to keep my laptop clean, that I click on links without a doubt.

    AVG or Avast
    Both are free but it is a users prefference that will be the real answer.

    If i say AVG it will get slated
    If i say Avast it will get slated.

    Really the choice is yours.

    All three programs offer Windows versions and free versions. Avast is the only one of the three products that has a version for Macs.
    1. Avast Home Edition Free Antivirus
    I have to crown Avast as the overall best free antivirus for, among other reasons, having excellent virus and spyware detection rates according to antivirus test results from AV-Test.org.

    Avast antivirus manages to provide a simple and functional user interface, while also being very customizable and feature complete. The active protection feature monitors seven different ways that a virus could enter your computer, including Web browsing, email, file sharing, and more.

    Avast also features scanning on boot up if you choose to do so. That’s something you don’t want to do on every boot as it takes quite a while. However, if you suspect you have been exposed to a virus or spyware it is the best way to detect and remove active infections.

    2. Avira Personal Free Antivirus
    Avira is another one of the best free antivirus products, but it is not as full featured as Avast. The free version of Avira doesn’t claim to protect against spyware, but I believe there is some crossover between what is defined as a virus and as spyware. If you want to make sure you are covered for spyware you can use something like SuperAntiSpyware which also has a free version.

    Avira has an attractive interface, but it needed more tweaking to get things to function the way I wanted than did Avast. According to AV-Test.org Avira rates slightly higher than Avast for virus detection. However, if the spyware tests were run on the free version of Avira the score would be very low since they reserve the antispyware feature for the paid version.

    3. AVG Antivirus Free Edition
    AVG is the most popular and one of the best free antivirus software products. AVG has a very polished user interface and is easy and comfortable to use. AVG detects both viruses and spyware in the free edition. However, in the test mentioned above the detection rate is a little lower than Avast or Avira.

    The main thing that puts AVG last in my choices for best free antivirus is the amount of functionality left out of the free version verses the the paid version of the software. You still get good basic protection, but Avast and Avari cover more of the infection pathways than does AVG.

    All three of these best free antivirus choices can be easily installed and uninstalled. You can feel free to try all of them to choose your favorite.

    Well the latest Avast antivirus free edition is a hit on the internet.It is now more good and has features for you and it works like a paid antivirus.
    http://www.avast.com
    you can go read about the features and downlad the antivrus from the website.

    I have used various rated products over the years but always come back to AVG FREE. You have to use a mix of programs to get the maximum protection. I used Spybot for a while as well but have now been convinced to use MS Security Essentials with AVG.
    I also use Mozilla Firefox as my browser with most of the security addons installed like Adblock and also Mywot which rates pages as well as having all cookies and pop-ups blocked by default.
    Tempting fate – I have not been hit by anything since 1995 and then only from a friend the day after a new virus was released!
    The biggest way to be infected is your own behaviour and the risks you take online.

    Get Clam AV for windows It’s Free !!!

    I was a Free AVG person, then I ran Clam AV and found 2 Trojans on the first run.

    Clam AV also runs on XP, Vista, Win7 Server 2003 ….not sure about 2008.

    AVG Free. But nothing is perfect.Avoid sites that are likely to have viruses on them. The obvious dodgy sites, like porn for example.

  13. mattyspurs76 said :

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a cracking little program. i find it just as good, if not better than the likes of AVG. It uses less resources and you dont need to do much with it except to update and scan.

    Just because its a microsoft product doesnt mean that its not very good
