Antivirus is Vista? · DIGIT-ARC

B

Do i have to intsall antivirus in vista home premium? At Windows security centre,malware protection, it is written that windows do not find any antivirus in the computer. but spyware and malware is protected by windows defender. So which antivirus to use? is there any version of avg that will work on vista?

dont trust inbuilt protection. . . use standalone anti-virus

^^^

yes you do need AntioVirus for Vista...

AVG will work just fine with Vista

and about which one u should use ?? please search the forum as plenty of Thread already running

in most you would find,

Free -> AVG / AVAST
Paid -> Kaspersky / NOD32 / BitDiffender

personally i suggest Kaspersky Internet Security which is. Rs. 850/- (OEM Pack) in Kolkata

I THINK LATEST VERSION OF AVAST is vista compatible check out www.avast.com for more details.and yes you need antivirus in whichever windows you use.

I stringly recommend avast as its personal edition is free to use and updation is very easy.
But if you wanna pay for your Antivirus than nothing beats Kespersky(I prefer nod32 but it is quite difficult to use and is costlier).

Check out one Offcial Microsoft Link

*www.microsoft.com/protect/viruses/vista/av.mspx

I dont see avast in the list.

* avast! is now finally compatible with Windows Vista RC1; also, the "remediations" in Vista Security Center are now functional

This indicates the list is not comprehensive.

what about norton 360? does it slow down the comp too much?

^ if you want yourself to make your computer to compute at snail speeds. . . . you can use norton 360. . .

Better go for AVG

why not Avast?

Brand: Kaperesky
Category: Software
SubCategory: Anti Virus

Everythings seems to be in a mess there. Pic says KIS, Subcategory says AntiVirus, Brand name is spelled wrong, price is half of original KIS suite!

I think it must be KAV and not KIS.
