AVG Free Edition 7 is resouce light but AntiVir Personal Edition 6 is much lighter and has a higher detection rate. But the problem about AntiVir PE is that it has a Windows Classic interface which might not be very user-friendly and its update is rather slow and you'll even have to reinstall it sometimes but on the other hand, AVG isn't very user friendly too but it has a rather fast and easy update process so if you want to use it, get an on-demand virus scanner for your computer or an anti-trojan.

I use AVG when I log into Windows (very rarely do), and the only problem I had with it, was I couldn't find anything that suggested it logged what viruses were found, if anyone knows I would really appreciate it, else I think I'll just have to write a program to store it's information, I'm thinking maybe one of the files it dumps in the root directory (C:\) might contain information, but I haven't looked yet, as I said, I very rarely go on Windows now.

I don`t know, I was using AVG for a long time, because it is really good free anti-virus, but when I found Kaspersky I changed my mind and started to use Kaspersky, because he is the fastest to catch virus. But in other hand AVG use less computer resources than Kaspersky.

Well, I like AVG very much because whenever i get a virus it immediately contacts me and asks me whether or not to heal, delete, or move the virus vault. And overall in the scans it picks up pretty much everything!

Steps To Virus Proof Your Pc

Follow the simple steps to virus proof your pc. 1. Make sure you have a clean boot CD handy at all
times. Your original operating system installation CD should be bootable, so that will do. 2. If
your anti-virus has an option of making a bootable CD, take some time off to make one of those. You
will appreciate the effort if the need ever arises. 3. Use a well-reputed anti-virus software and
update it daily. 4. Make sure your anti-virus automatically scans any newly inserted discs for

Microsoft has gone waaaaay too far in their PR, now they are flat out lying. They are getting to be

I think the best way to defend the virus is finely backup your important files and system. I don`t

when the system is quite good .All the processes only took 10 minites.Some important files uploaded
to an online disk and my moving disk. When there is something wrong. It take just 10 minites to
restore the system and less time to download my files. In my opinion , there is no best
