Re: Anti Virus Expired

1) I would go with Avira AntiVir.

2) Avast!

AVG just went down the drain as far as system resources. It hinders the internet by default, but if you do a custom install you can relieve this a little. But, I'd still go with Avira AV.

Re: Anti Virus Expired

I've also heard good things about Avira and Avast.

Re: Anti Virus Expired

I've heard nothing bad about avast, I've never heard of avira. I use NOD 32 and I don't know if I'm just one of the ones that doesn't get into the really bad areas of the net, but it has kept me totally clean for 3 years now.
Nod isn't free though, but renewal is pretty reasonable.
