SEARCH OTHER THREADS.............IT HAS BEEN DISCUSSED HEAVILY , qh IS CHEAP BUT THERE ARE MANY FREE ALSO . YOUR CHOICE WHAT U WILL DO . as u r using quickheal all I can say that its not in the first 20 best antivirus . search softwares/reviews section then u will get ur ans .

close this thread .

Oops! Is there something called a best AntiVirus? No, i don't think so! Hundreds of Viruses are born in Cyberspace each week, and you think any AntiVirus product can challenge this pace? NO!

Whatever, somethingis better than nothing. There are some great products out there, both Proprietary (like Norton and McAffee) and Free ones (like Avast)! All are equally good.

But what keeps getting good each day are Viruses ;-)

BitDefender 9 Professional Plus. Period.

This, however, is the full suite consisting of the Firewall, AntiVirus, AntiSpyware and AntiSpam. If you want only the AntiVirus, use BitDefender 9 Standard.

BTW, you need a Firewall for 'protection over internet' and ZoneAlarm is the best in the arena.

Hi,
I think Avast Antivirus is best for it.

We all prefer good antivirus

and good antivirus is zone alarm

itz in google top10 downloadzz

Go for Norton 2006. It's the best. Also it's price has come down. It's affordable too.
Use ZoneAlarm with Norton 2006 antivirus for best protection against trojans,
worms, viruses, spyware etc.,

...and a crawling PC! It is the most resource hungry antivirus application out there after Aluria Security Center and Panda Platinum 2006 Internet Security and will (theoritically) have a thirteen percent drag on your system. However, it will be more than fifty percent in practice, let me assure you.

NOD 32 ..Kaspersky are good...Norton is good but a resource hog

search b4 u post dude
kav and nod32 are great but trial period
avast is a free av and a good one too

quick heal and norton both

ZoneAlarm is a FireWall, and not an AntiVirus!

why would some1 buy quickheal?

If ur a home user the i think Avast, AVG, or Antivir(all freeware) should be more than enough.
If u wanna spend some green then buy KAV its the best out there.

Install KAV and KAH and you are almost completely safe from internet.

just install kaspersky+zone alarm pro and let your worries disappear !

Hmm.. This thread is really gettin crowded with all antivirus software names..... CT Squad, the beginner of the thread hasnt replied either....

There is nothing as THE BEST ANTI VIRUS SOFTWARE.... Some are efficient than others in certain ways... Guess this is the topic which goes on and on , round and round......

Anyway... as for a reply,,

Quickheal
KAV
Norton
McAffee
Avast
BitDefender
Trendmicro
avg
Zone alarm Suite
Nod32

If u are a home user, go for a free* AVS like avg, avast etc, ... it will do ok..

if not Norton, kav, Nod32 and others will be better....

Norton is heavily resource hungry as all knows... its not advisable for an average build...

kav and nod32 are ok... But...

Nod32 is opt for anyline as it has a decent discovery rate + light weight on systems...
Kav is ok too, but i opt Nod32 better

Zone alarm suite with antivirus is...ok..but guys.,..zone alarm is primarily a firewall na... it has just opted to cme with an inbuild antivirus.. so.. Zone alarm is ONE of the better ones in Firewalls... but not so in avs...

So... if u are an pro user, go for a Nod32+zone alarm pro combination .. it will suit u well

Crappy PCS? go for NoD32. nothing else

I always used Kaspersky Personal PRO version... works like charmm.....

ZoneAlarm is Antivirus+AntiSpyware+Firewall
ZA security suite is a good solution.

download some best viruses to test your best antiviruses

Search my dear friend... There are so many threads already dedicated to this topic... Anyways, use Kaspersky Antivirus for best protection... But mind you, it is a bit resource hungry but not as much as Nortons...

use av or kasperesky.

Thats an excellent comparison dude.

if u want to put money for antivirus, put it on NOD32 simply the best

zonealarm is a firewall software but zonealarm security suite is a complete thing with AV firewall, antispyware, anti malware and more. its a complete suite of all the necessary security softwares. and is rated as the best sutie by the cnet guys. good for advanced and ameteur users . not much of a rsource hog...like norton.
more over norton is jus the antivirus sfware. never saw fire wall by norton. but m sure that it will be a resource hog too like the AV,
kaspersky version 6 series is also a gr8 suite like zone alarm has AV anti spyware. anti malware. firewall. and very low cpu usage. pretty decent.
u can try ne of these.
pl dont opt for the free ones like avast and avg. they do a good job but not comparable to the afore mentioned sfwares. they r free guys ...u cant expect them to compete with zonealarm and norton and tohers.
in case u only want a free solution then i think avast is good among the free ones.
norton has really good. detection algorithms and pretty accurate too for that matter. but unless u hav a 512 mb of ram or more better keep away from it. will definitely slow ur sys.
had been using zonealarm for abt 6 months ...really satisfied.. using kaspersky 6 for the past 1 month jus to try ....and not disappointed till now.

zonealarm suxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx cant even detect some binded trojans :-s
