Looking for an anti virus software

THIS is the BEST Antivirus for me

For Homeusers/Gamers, Sandboxie and windows + router firewall is good protection. Very low on resource.

My suggestion would be to use Avast for regular protection, and get Malwarebytes for scanning your computer when you think something might be up.

also if you want a good firewall that only blocks what you want use comodo firewall, win 7 is fine but not the best

you only need malwarebytes

Norton :O

Use avira antivirus, it's much better than microsofts one.

Avast!

I use Avast for a long time and it never found faults with me, the user. Microsoft AV seems good but kinda lacks the definitions that the others have, AVG sucks to the max, McAfee isn't worth mentioning and the rest are on the same level or better than Avast. However, I stand by my decision for Avast, especially their IS version.

use kaspersky if u have good pc it's best antivirus software. i use it about 5 years and have no problem related to viruses. kaspersky detects even pirated games and says that this game i launched is pirated. he lets me play :D it's best antivirus software

AVAST !!

im surprised no one has said panda! panda is cloud-based and uses practically no cpu whatsoever. i'm liking it so far.

Kaspersky Pure , the best :)

I combine Malwarebytes with a large dose of common sense. I think I'm doing alright.

Microsoft Security Essentials and yes it actually works xD!

VIPRE antivirus.
Using PC-lifetime key for 3+ PC (unlimited)!
Takes 20% CPU during a full scan on my ultra-low voltage i7 640UM.

Microsoft Security Essentials
It's low resource and pretty reliable

You already have the most lightweight, non-CPU-hogging, but really effective antivirus. Don't switch to anything else if you want to keep good performance.

eset, they do a free 6 months licence somewhere (you can get free logins for it daily so you never need to but it)

Avast. It has a free version which is completely sufficient.
Has browser protection for IE, Firefox and Chrome (plugins I think, not sure because I use opera), got site blocking, remote assistance, sandbox for suspicions programs etc etc.
Also has silent mode which makes it not pop up notifications when in fullscreen or at all.
Pretty much been using it for 2 years and had no problems with it.

Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2012.

Avast! free and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
