What fucking Antivirus do you use? - GoFuckYourself.com

Vick! · 11-25-2007, 06:03 PM

Its been a goddamn decade and I never found an intelligent Antivirus .. Have been using Norton, avast and some others .. but never get fully satisfied.

Today I purchased Nod32 .. lets see what it is up to.

What AV do you use? And why? .. Some says Kaspersky is good .. what you say?

Shagbunny · 11-25-2007, 06:05 PM

just use norton, used mcafee many years ago

GrouchyAdmin · 11-25-2007, 06:06 PM

UNIX derivatives.

Spunky · 11-25-2007, 06:06 PM

Norton 360

tony286 · 11-25-2007, 06:09 PM

the best is kaspersky, it will slow your system a touch but its rock solid.

The Judge · 11-25-2007, 06:11 PM

an antivirus made in russia is like hep. b. medication made in china

pornask · 11-25-2007, 06:12 PM

there's only one antivirus that has passed every single test conducted within last 15 years with 100% success rate - AVG.

Evidently that test included "What is your name?", and "Today's Date."

AVG 6 was fucking awful; even AntiVir had a better hit rate. It almost trailed McAffee.

The only truly intelligent one was 'Thunderbyte', but it's been gone for years. It'd actually segment off your computer into a virtual vm86 and run test cases on the code while watching for interrupts to be revectored. Practical upshot: It found everything.

It was pretty awesome.

Vick! · 11-25-2007, 06:19 PM

I just configured NOD32 .. hopefully it will perform good. was recommended by someone.

anybody used NOD? Any feedback?

I have that same problem with Kaspersky, but it always catches things the other programs miss. I need top figure out how to tweak the settings to not make downloads take so long, though. Do you have the same problem with it?

11-25-2007, 06:23 PM

Haven't had a problem with AVG. And it's free.

Sometimes I fix people's computers and as soon as I see anything made by Norton I uninstall it. That shit is horrible. Most of the time that is what is causing their computers to be so slow.

May be because those Russians release the virus definition first and spread the virus after that?

The Judge · 11-25-2007, 07:19 PM

Both Nod32 and AVG are Czech

bronco67 · 11-25-2007, 07:21 PM

AVG has been great for me 3 years. Haven't had a virus...and the best thing about it is that I don't notice it's there. Mcaffe and all the other big ones hog your system and basically fucking bloatware.

carol.prime · 11-25-2007, 07:54 PM

kaspersky here as well!

starpimps · 11-25-2007, 07:58 PM

kaspersky
i like it better than norton

Inde · 11-25-2007, 07:58 PM

avast has worked flawlessly for me for the past three years...

NemesiS876 · 11-25-2007, 07:59 PM

Just ZoneAlarm man ! Nothing else !

I use NOD, seems great so far (5 weeks now), I like it better then AVG, computer seems faster running NOD over AVG too.

million · 11-25-2007, 08:24 PM

There is NO reason in the world to use Windows. If you are a designer use Mac, if you are everything else use Linux (Ubuntu or Suse). If you really really really really really really really really really need windows, I've heard Kaspersky is very good.

Grapesoda · 11-25-2007, 08:25 PM

I use fucking AVG

Yes and dont know the fix I got to hit their forum for answers its annoying. 7 is still alot faster than 6

justFred · 11-25-2007, 08:28 PM

Windows is the most practical and affordable platform for me even with the threat of viruses. I and my employees use up to seven computers right now for normal business stuff, plus high definition video editing and video encoding, photo editing and graphic design work, flash work, DVD authoring and other things. Most of this software won't work on Linux and I am not willing to spend boatloads of money and lots of time learning new software to switch to Mac at this point. So there is one reason to use Windows!

In any case, I like Avast Anti-Virus. It just caught a virus that was lying dormant in the restore partition on the laptop that I use for email and icq.

draude · 11-25-2007, 08:50 PM

NOD32. Whatever you do, stay far, far away from Norton.

So far so good .. I tried it on some viruses and its good in detecting and denying access to them. Plus system is light as no av on it.

Fuck norton!

Slick · 11-25-2007, 11:56 PM

I've been using NOD32 for a couple of years now and I love it. It doesn't eat up a lot of system resources and it's great at detecting, no problems yet running it.

The nice thing is that they're always updating their definitions, it seems like it's almost every day which shows that they're on the ball there.

calibra · 11-26-2007, 12:05 AM

NOD32

Yngwie · 11-26-2007, 12:20 AM
