Hello there!
I need you help in choosing antivirus software.
I have NOD and Norton. Which one do you think is better?

From the two above, it's better to go for NOD32. But, it's really best if you could go for Kaspersky Internet Security..... Plz check out the official AV thread in this section of the forum. (it's a sticky)

try out these: http://tech-baby.co.cc/best-combinat...for-home-users

Full recommendation to a-squared and Spyware terminator

Add AVira Antivirus to the list.

For ur reference: http://tech-baby.co.cc/which-securit...choose-a-guide

Norton and NOD are good but not the best est solution

Off the 2, Norton $u(ks big time
Go for NOD32 as it is the lightest and the best antivirus available

Hi flame..Please dont install neither Norton nor NOD...

Norton willl make ur system slow, it takes so much of memory...With NOD , it will SHUt down your system....
Do go for AVIRA....Its better & the BEST among all the anti viruses out there..... http://www.free-av.com/en/download/index.html Avira AntiVir Personal - FREE Antivirus

Basic protection
Protects your computer against dangerous viruses, worms, Trojans and costly dialers.

[OFFTIPIC]These days, we're having too many spammers in this forum. Like the one above. This should come to the notice of the admins so they can permanently ban the offending IPs.[/OFFTOPIC]

what is spamming, I would like to know.

http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenreviews.com/

Best is Bitdefender and Kaspersky.
But when you come for free edition AV softwares its AVG and Avira

and these info you get by putting "best antivirus" on google.
