can you suggest me the best antivirus software with internet security as well?

Go for Zone alarm internet security. It has got the best firewall

Hmmm...Now that's a legal question ! ;-)

Free: avast! Free Home edition + Zone Alarm Firewall
Paid Suite: Kaspersky Internet Suite

M using a paid version of Avast professional. It had compatibility problems with Zone Alarm Pro whch i used earlier. I think it was network shield, which conflicted with ZA.
The home version has one less provider n i guess its the network shield which is absent.
So does the home edition works fine with ZA ?
I had problem in logging on to Rediff,Orkut, E-bay etc.

my config:
p4 3.0 ghz
1 gb ram
160gb hd
win xp sp2

so my friend said norton antivirus 2006 and norton internet security 2006 is the best for this config

[anandk]

rather than norton i stl prefer kis6 or zass6.5.

[overclocker]

NOD32 is the best frm my end but it is not free.

This gets asked again and again and again and again and ....

Anyway, best AV : Kaspersky.
Lightest AV (with a 3ghz PIV you dont need to consider this) : Nod32
Best Firewall : Zone Alarm
Best Antispyware : Webroot and Pctools (Spyware Doctor).
Best Sexurity package : Kaspersky Internet Security.

And remember, not to choose free options if you want top notch protection. The likes of AVG,Avast and Spybot cant match up with the paid alternatives. Anyway, Kaspersky has better detection rate than anything else under the sun.

And, I would strongly recomend that you DO NOT install norton under any circumstances. You friend is probably one of the many people who have only heard of Norton and thinks its the best as its the most popular. Norton is bloated, and nusiance. I still see many people saying that its un-installer screws up.


Hey Indyan, just check out what you have wrote (I mean the spellings)!!:D

The best combo is "Avast+Zone Alarm"
FREE n HIGHLY EFFECTIVE ;)
