So, what kind of Anti-Virus do you use and why?
Note: Norton is not up there for the following reasons: WAY too many Versions, and it's crap. ;P
I personally use avast! It's free, effin awesome, and detects almost everything.

I use AVG free 8.0

I keep meaning to change to something else but I haven't yet. My roommates have something or another that's supposed to be really awesome, the name slips my mind for the moment.

THats not a reason Hyren... I'd use any Anti-Virus with the crappiest look (Windows Beta Look) as long as it does it's job.
Also, McAfee?
Just no. Sorry.
Avast! is free dude, you just need a free license. Register for one and just renew it every year, it's always free.

its also a trust thing. i for example hadnt heard of avast or avira till a year ago, and have had no reason to switch really.
what i would like is an antivirus that deletes infected files automatically.

I use Avast, it was the first free one I knew about, does everything well and works.

Well except for sniping computer to computer transfers without warning sometimes. That sucks. :/

I use Avira antivir because its free I was using Avg Grisoft 8.0 Free but i removed it due to it failing to update several times, so i asked a friend of mine which anti-virus program he uses and he told me Antivir(Avira) which works pretty good in my opinion. I even re-installed Avg like 3 times to see if it would fix the problem from it not being able to update but it wouldnt update so now i run Avira free edition.

Err.. bitdefender ftw?

Its got built in firewall, anti virus, antispyware, (used to have built in defragger), its got IM encryption as well as antiphishing protection and whatnot.. Why would you not want to use it?

Also, if I didnt use BD, i'd use Anti-Vir. Last time i used avast it was a memory lagging whore.

Well for firewall I have a router, for spyware I have spybot, I have jkdefrag for defragging and IM encryption is useless as long as both parties don't use it.

I like my programs specialized on one thing.

DM, who DOSNT have firewalls in there routers? They will allow your computer to send/recv remote data to other servers, eg, a virus sending /receving other viruses. A real firewall will popup and go "OMG! This is trying to access internet, let it?"

I still use spybot, and I still use diskeeper. I dont really care about IM encryption, im not talking about many illegal things anyway, we could always just use a real IM client for that, eh?

Where can i download BitDefender? Is it free? Does it work on Vista? I use AVG Free 8.0 and it sucks. It tells me how many very likely infected files i have,but it doesn't delete them nor tell the name of them. Thats probably why i have 3 viruses. At least i watch what i do(unlike i used to) or i would end up like before: 39 viruses with 3 being medium threat and the rest being minor. But still: 39 viruses. OMG.
