I'm just wondering which anti-virus software people use, and which one people think works best. I currently have AVG, its free, but I am prepared to put some money into a program that works well. I was looking on download.com but theres so many there to choose from.
Taking into account:
- ease of use
- scan speed
- active scan cpu usage
- active updates
- etc.
Even without thinking of the above things, which one do you think works best? |

NOD32.

Consumes the least amount of resources of any/all anti-virus software.
Fastest scan rate, lowest memory use, highest detection rate. |

stops pretty much all viruses, and can actually improve system performance/run time....
and after installed, it is a hardware firewall.... |

Nothing a little format can't fix.
Nothing shows up in my inbound/outbound connections that shouldn't be there :) |
