Re: [Full-Disclosure] What Antivirus Should I Get



Hi Nancy, I like AVG from www.grisoft.com.  Release 6 is free or you might 
prefer (as I do) release 7.  AVG7 has greater functionality than 6.  I use it 
at a PC shop to clean machines which have had their anti-virus software 
compromised by malware.  I've found it to be far less demanding on system 
resources than Norton, McAfee or most of the other anti-virus bundles.  This 
makes it ideal for lower powered machines but it is certainly no light weight 
when it comes to anti-virus protection.
 
Of course, if a machine becomes infected, there may be no alternative than to 
employ a removal tool specially designed for the particular infestation, such 
as is the case with Netsky.
 
But I, too, will be interested to hear what other subscibers to this list 
recommend.
 
Regards



one step at a time...
