best virus scanner program?

[skirkham]

Norton AV2003

[Darkmatter]

Have to agree AVG is the best for me,
Its doesnt take over your system like someothers, Relatively compact, and its FREE

[Pingu2003]

i think the norton one is the best on looks and performance.

mind you ive only used macfree and pccillin.

out of then norton deffo gets the thumbs up!

McAfee VirusScan.. period
norton products have always been sluggish

[Ice Kay]

Use norton, kaspersky or F-prot.

I have to say that on the machines here at work, McAfee is rather more sluggish than the odd machine we've got w/Norton on it.

Cant use those anti virus things :/ just need to be careful. A weekly scan with http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ does me!

Sophos is good for business use as its very network-manager-friendly - for home users I'd recommend Nortons or one of the freebie ones. We used to use McAfee at work and it was utter pap.

Ive been using Pc-Cillin for about 2 years. It comes with a firewall aswell

okay my 2P

Mcafee - good detection lillte slow on the update kill system performance

Sophos - Easy to roll out(network wise), update anywhere upto 3 time a day- not to bad on system performance - not recommended for the home user

noton great for the home user cheap(but still cost money) and regular update (as long as you connecto to the internet for a resonalbe amount of time

AVG (I use it at home) - Cheap (well it is free) does not update anywhere near of ofted as the others here, schedule for update is quite poor

well my view
