hi friends lets discuss about the best antivirus/antispyware available. please share your viewpoints.

i rate bitdefender as the best(faster scan,very high detection rates). nod 32 is another good one but it fails on certain occasions but very fast.
then the good old norton, decent but slow.

I've used them all pretty much other than bit defender , I have to say from a free basis AVG is the most useful and uses low resources however from experience with NOD32 it uses even less resources than AVG. But due to AVG being free I have the give the vote to it.

i have also heard that avg is good and our college also uses it but personally never tried it.
may be in future i may give it a try if bitdefender is not upto my expectations.
thanks for sharing your view

Bit defender is the top most anti-virus software. Then the Kaspersky software is good. nod 32 is also good. avg moved to the sixth position while norton is in ninth position. But bitdefender is most preferrable.

I would go for the Avast anti virus and it really works well for the computers and it is available for a trial.
