What virusscanner should i buy?
To solve annoying Windows errors, you might want to try a Windows Registry Check. In most cases, optimizing the Windows registry will speed up your Windows.
I want to buy a new virusscanner for next year, but I have no clue what should be the one that is the best buy. I did some research, but all the magazines tell me different things.
I am thinking about buying Norton Antivirus or Norton internet security. Is this a good choice? And which one of the two should i buy then?
Thanks for the advice! Is a bought virusscanner not better than a free one then? I mean, those companies get money to develop their software, opposed to the companies of the free antivirussoftware. I always thought free scanners had some compatibility problems / not up to date / not as good as bought ones. I mean, why else would you spend money on it?
The basic functions in free AV software for detecting and removing viruses should be equal to those of the commercial products. The major difference is that commercial scanners provide additional features like spyware removal functions or dialer protection. Mostly you won't get any support for free products as well.
Just throw a glance at the 2 provided links for examplary information on the differences between free and commercial scanners.
if you really want to spend money on this, then i recommend NOD32 from Eset...besides, it has found all ITW (in the wild) viruses provided for tests by Virus Bulletin since 1998
works pretty good, at least for me, but i think the freeware ones will do their job just as good, unless you got a really bad infection you can then just download a free trial
