Virus and SPyware Programs, which works best?

[happy123]

I have been using Norton Anti-Virus for years myself without any problems. A lot people have problems with it though.

 

[ziddiri]

both spybot + spywareblaster are best.

I use Mcafee. Iit's not wonderful, but I have better luck with it than Norton.

 

[Dolemite]

I prefer Kaspersky Antivirus. Best I have used.

First line of defence is DO NOT USE INTERNET EXPLORER for browsing.Changing to Opera or Firefox is probably as effective as many anti virus/spyware programs.

 

[drakan]

NOD32 for antivirus and spybot for spyware

 

[gafla10]

ad aware personal free edition is the best against trojans etc also avast is doing good job with less memory usage.

SuperAntiSpyware and Avast on my comp.

 

[Methos]

I use Avast AV ,Super Antispyware,SpywareBlaster,MalwareBytes and Online Armor firewall and few other small programs.

What works for one person, may not work that well for another. Certain products may conflict with a anti virus on one computer, but that same anti virus may not conflict on a different computer.

As long as you follow the rule of one firewall, one anti virus, and a anti spyware(some people say you need two or more) it's just a matter of what works best for the individual.

I use Avira Antivir free, ZoneAlarm free firewall and Spyware Terminator.

For scanning purposes I have SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes' Antimalware.

ad aware (personal) + Spyware doctor with Antivirus + Simply super software Trojan Remover + Kapersky antivirus + Use firefox

Ad-aware is not now considered an effective program.Neither is spybot.
No antivirus/antispyware is more effective than its last update.
