Getting a bit paranoid about hacks, so what do you rate AVG? What do you recommend?

Had it before it is highly recommended by lots of people and it never fails to let people down. It's one of the most popular anti-virus programs today.

Avast. It's free, and it updates its virus database almost daily. I'm yet to have a breach with it.

Norton>All. Even though it costs a lot, you'll NEVER catch a virus while having norton active. I have both a pc and a mac, When using AVG on pc I got tons of viruses that AVG couldn't terminate. Using Norton on my pc, Norton was able to terminate all of them+I haven't got one since. #1k swag

Norton's the best. Have used it for years and never had a single problem with it.

Downloaded avast! Thanks everyone, I downloaded the free one though. Should I keep AVG as well as avast? Not a matter of lag/no lag though.

I found this on a different site. "I have installed the trial version of ESEt yesterday without uninstalling McAffee. Big mistake. My PC freezes now and it doesn't allow me to uninstall either of them."

Bad imo, scans rather slow and keels other AV's. I use a free version of Norton, it is basically a virus shield even if you run one on purpose. Norton + Webroot all the way. {K}Kīñg300000{K} "trust no one but me, myself and i*"
