Best paid antivirus software.

[Pcinacan]

What is the best software for antivirus. I really need it for one reason that is to restore performance. I have seen that my pc has been going slower and i would like to get it at least a little faster. So what should  I get?

I prefer Avast. 

[jimakos234]

Kaspersky

 

or no antivirus at all.

[cortexcortex]

The best "paied" AV, in my opinion, is Malwarebytes

You could download malware bytes since you could have a virus? you mentioned your pc is starting to get slow.

 

I don't even run anti virus, but if you're not confident in your surfing capabilities then i would get one.

 

Go buy Norton from you local walmart costs like 50$ for a year. There are free ones like AVG but it really depends on the protection you want.

 

Good hackers can make rats/etc that can get through most firewalls.

 

 

 

In summary;

 

 

Download malware bytes and see if that fixes your problem if not you could buy Norton or something.

 

Last case senario;

 

Take your pc to a store and have them clean it or you can do it with a fresh windows install and start fresh ( you'll lose all your documents )

I think i will go malware bytes. I have thought about doing a fresh reinstall but  it takes to much time and i have a 300 gb data cap

*cough* Apple Store massive infection *cough* MSX > OSX

[SlientNinja.cmd]

avast, malwarebytes, and superantispyware and maybe use something like ccleaner.

If you have a mac, having anti-virus is still a good idea.

I have never used apple store. Few people write Mac malware compared to Windows

Yeah but anything that has code in it can be hacked.

Why does your internet Data cap have anything to do with you doing a fresh install?

 

You're going to be doing it via CD or bootable USB correct? That doesn't use internet Data.

 

Took me like 20minutes to do a full install on my pc. win7

Sure, but there are many fewer writers of malicious software for mac.

There have been several viruses for macs that caught people off guard.
