There can only be 10 poll choices, and 2 more stickies would be way too many. These are here to try and stop new threads from cropping up every other day (Y)

avg is da l33t

[Josh]

F-Prot... NOTHING (Even the AVGFree lol) can stand up to F-prot's superior functionality... and it's licnesing (which comes to $10 USD per license to start) can't be touched by anybody, Even AVG (not free).

format/not get viruses

its soo good that i havent even heard about it... crazy

[Hani]

definitely NOD32

[Josh]

^^^ ... just because you haven't heard about it doens't make it bad... im sure there are ALOT of top notch things you don't know about...

http://www.f-prot.com/

There... now you've heard... get educated, and get protected.

avg is da l33t

unless of course you uninstall avg, install something like avast/nod32/symantec corp and see how many viruses avg missed.

[sryo]

clamwin is missing http://www.clamwin.com/

[oceanmotion]

Used NOD32 for the last 2 years and has'nt failed me ever.

[Billthy]

eh looks cool but im not paying for an antivirus because i have great service with AVG and it is 100% free

[Josh]

Exactly... AVG's not a good choice at all... been there, tried that... it's real time scan/autoprotect is sh!t too... Im tellin you... spend $50, get the 5 licenses of F-prot, and give them to yoru family... ;) :lol: in the end, they'll love you.

Changing course alittle, ClamWin is FAR better than AVG... and if you're really ThAT cheap then you need to at least be using ClamWin.

[emo]

i use nod32.

avast, clamwin and antivr are all free and way better than avg.

[Billthy]

oh well, my computer runs great as it is so i dont need to change anything... thanks for the suggestions

[Josh]

^^^ :no: oh well, when the crap hits the fan you can't say we didn't try... or you didn't know... so don't act mad and surprised when it happens...

that's what i wanted to say, but couldn't think of a nice way :D

[AJerman]

Symantec Antivirus 9 Corp, hands down.

Unless of course you need free, and if so, then I dunno. I use SAV though, have for a long time, it's basically the most perfect AV I have ever used.

[Josh]

Honesty is the only policy... it's not the nice one, and it's not always the best, but it's the only one I believe in. Some things can't be sugered up... and even when they can I refuse to.

In hindsite (for him), nieveness is going to be a b!tch lol... ;)

BTW, Im not attacking you... but by being close minded you're really going to hurt yourself in the end. And as far as even speed goes, F-Prot doesn't slow anything down... at all... not liek SAV/NAV, AVG, or McGAyfee...

[Slimy]

sav doesn't slow anything down, nav does.

[Purple Haze]

I'd used Norton for almost 3 years, switched to NOD32 in October and haven't looked back. :)

[Josh]

sav doesn't slow anything down, nav does.

Actually, I moved from NAV to SAV 3 years ago. I was very pleased with how much faster things got moving to SAV. However, 3 months ago I moved to F-Prot, and things got even faster.

Not sure what to tell you, but I've seen the light ;) lol... not to mention (since I wasn't using free/stolen/warez versions of SAV) the savings I get going down to udner $10/license.

I've always used Norton because.. Well, because I just always have. But am getting peeved at paying ??? for consumer level protection each year. A lot of people are suggesting NOD32 to me, so if it's free - I'll give it a try next time I reformat a spare PC.

[neoxphuse]

Nod32 defintely. So far it has been perfect for me.
