Whitebridges Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 F-PROT anti-virus Agnitium OutPost Firewall. Small, fast efficient, fit for purpose. Developed by folk who actually know what they are doing. Ditch anything from Symantec / Norton, if you want your system to actually work.

Whitebridges Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 norton antivirus is probably the biggest virus you will ever have on your machine!, i would reccommend fully removing it from your system and just use windows firewall which will be automatically there waiting to see the back of norton! then you can download 2 programs for free which are adaware and spybot , these can just be run once a week or once a fortnight to remove any that got through firewall but generally as long as you dont download any exe files that you are unsure of or dont browse to much porn you wont have a problem with viruses , hope this helps, ive not had a problem for over 2 years using this system. Once Norton is on your machine you will not get rid of the bast**d!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great Cornholio Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 I used the AVG free version for a few years and it is excellent, but I have just moved up to the "paid for" version, which includes a Firewall, Anti Spyware, Anti Spam and a few other refinements. Hi Cranfield, I'm Thinking of doing the same. What's your verdict so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
