I believe Avira may have a little higher detection rate then McAfee but fails at effectively removing what it dose find. Is this because McAfee has superior program features and tools?


Answer:
I've been on line for at least ten years, and I use McAfee. I had tried Norton, and had nothing but problems with it.

Answer:
i think mcafee is a huge resource hog (as in CPU usage and memory)

my favorite 3 are:

1. Kaspersky

2.NOD-32

3. Avira

im running kaspersky right now and i must state, its amazing. when scanning system, i basically forgot it was there and i was gaming with only like 10 more average ping. the firewall feature already recognizes trusted programs so its good. doesnt have the highest detection rate, but its the best (i think) overall. only issue is that its 80$ for internet security 3 users though but i got mine off ebay for 15$ one user but be careful! most of those serials are blacklisted from china =\

goodluck! NOD-32 is pretty good too..


Answer:
There is a massive misunderstanding when it comes to Antivirus software.

Norton is the best. Antivirus.

When you add other programs in the Internet Security Suites is where you get the resource hogs

If you are just speaking Antivirus not all the rest of the resource hog programs Norton is by far and away the ideal. 2008 or 2009


Answer:
How about going for a product that doesn't depends as much on it's capability to remove what it missed in the first place, and instead concentrates on not letting your system get infected in the first place?
