Hi,
my current subscription for Norton is expiring soon, any suggestions for better softwares? that I could download and it not be just a trial version? Some I've heard quite a lot of are AVG and Avast, which is better? AVG looks good from the site.
Thanks much.

Kaspersky is VERY good. They offer updates every offer, when AVG only offers them about every day or every other day. I would highly reccommend gettting this, it's from here:

http://www.kaspersky.com/store

Yes, it's expensive but trust me, it's worth it.

there is no comparison when it comes to the best antivirus............its nod32

www.nod32.com....product speaks for itself and only one that has not failed in the wild virus test...

now as far as kaspersky can u trust a product that has failed 13 times since its released...here is the proof

if u want the best i as i do then u should check nod32 period.

avg free version is about as good as norton.
scans incoming/outgoing e-mail. uses auto protect,
you have to open the program to update, definitions
have been available mon-fri for quite a while now.
and sat,sun when a high level virus is found.

and for trojans get TDS-3

Yes AVG 6.0 will auto update, the only downside is that you can only schedule it for once a day and sometimes AVG has more than one update per day.

HI:I have tried all the antivirus out there
& I have found that "Nod32" are the best & fast antivirus in whole the planet
also IT work as an antivirus/Anti-trojan on the Same Time..
Later,P

Avast! is the best freebie out there and kiks Norton, McAfee and AVG.
Totally free ON_LINE up-dating as you surf the net. Why pay, when the best is free?

If you need a simple solution, try mine. I try to give advise on things that have happened to my PC. Changes in registry can be FATAL! Glad to have a chance to help you.

umm i wouldnt put much faith in avast its failed more times then norton avg and macky put together. just look at the proof

http://www.virusbtn.com/vb100_award/archives/products.xml?avist.xml

as far as i see. if i was going to use a free av it would be

1. avg.

as far as best paid version of av there is no doubt it would be nod32

hey viruskiller101,
nod32 isn't included in that list? Strange, don't you think?
Sorry to blow your bubble, but I've used Avast for over a year and my PC has been totally virus free and running great, sometimes I wonder where those ratings come from.

My apologies vk...I did see the nod32 review, I guess I overlooked it.
