What Is The Best Anti-virus & Anti-spyware Software To Use At Home?
Posted by benny in FreeWare on January 4th, 2010 | 9 responses
I’d like something that detects well, but doesn’t slow my computer down too much.
I noticed yesterday that somehow all of a sudden my laptop had a “keystroke logger” program installed and running! It had all of my accounts and passwords logged and I certainly want to avoid that from ever happening again.
So I’d like to get something I can install on my family’s laptops and desktops that’s effective and, like I said, doesn’t slow the computer down too badly.
Any suggestions?

Get free AVG Antivirus. It is the best!
free.grisoft.com
Try this Avast Antivirus. It has great firewall.
http://www.avast.com
Try Spyware Terminator with virus protection. It’s FREE
Norton will slow down your computer tremendously. Get AVG free, Avast, McAfee Security Center, Panda Anti virus. For anti spyware- Superantispyware, Webroot Spysweeper, Spyware Terminator, Spybot S&D. Good luck.
I highly recommend Panda Internet Security Suite. I tested it against Norton and McAfee and it was the only one that was able to detect malware alarm as well as a defragmentation attack on my system.
I also like that it has built-in web site filtering, so you can restrict sites that are not good for children (which I appreciate as a father of 3 young children).
The article below describes me “test” and has download links and coupon codes. It shows the defragmentation attack being thwarted, as well as it not allowing malware alarm to install on my system (which both Norton and McAfee allowed).
nod32 is the best antivirus (very low resource consumption)/ free one would be avg
spybot search and destroy is a good anti spyware
AVG Anti-Virus And AVG Anti-Spyware.
The AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition is Great For People With One Computer Wh Don’t Want To Spend A Fortune On Protection.
It Has An 83% Detection Rate Which Is Fairly Good But It Has A Low Trojan Detection Rate.
Download It Free Here:http://free.grisoft.com/doc/downloads-pr…
And For Your Anti-Malware Solution Use
AVG Anti-Spyware.
Its Heaps More Effective Than Spybot And Adaware Combined !
With A More Powerful Scanner than Spybot And
8 Times More Signatures Than Ad-Aware, This Anti-Spyware Really Packs A Punch.
Don’t Be Fooled By The Trial Period. Noobs Say Its Only A Trial. Infact The Trial Is The For The First 30 Days It’ll Offer Full Protection Such As A Resident Shield.
After The Trial Period This Will Be Disabled But The Scanner Is Yours For Life.
So To Be Fully Protected, Scan And Update Atleast Once A Week.
Download AVG Anti-Spyware Free.http://free.grisoft.com/doc/downloads-pr…
Use Them Both Together For Great Protection.
I know a few good ones but I personaly beleive that Xoftspyse is the best one out there. It has major protection and has a small price tag. To find a non biased review check out: http://killmyspyware.com/xoftspyse-review.html. Hopefully this will help you as much as it helped me.
actually, spy bot just detects spyware which is nothing much to worry about.
If I were you I’d get norton, it’s free for 6 month herehttp://sleekbytes.com/gpack/free-norton-…
some people say it’s a bit heavy but I run it on pentium II machines with no probs, it depends if your drive is huge and has no partition for the OS, then it slows as soon as you load ANY files into it.
Spybot S&D
from http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index…
will protect against spyware (keyloggers) and adware.
It is free and one of the few anti-spyware that does not infect as it cleans.
They accept donations for the program
Install it, run the registry backup and download updates as prompted. then scan , fix, and run the immunization to protect.
Good Luck
