Best Free Antivirus?

[Ron Ronaldo]

So yeah, I'm looking for the very best free antivirus software out there. >8D

I tried googling that shiz but the results are all over the place! D:

So what do you recommend? Also, which program do you use and why do you use it?

Thanks! :3

I use two, Avast and Malwarebytes.

Avast is free, pretty decent. It's what I'm using.

 

[[Nook]]

Don't get System Security. I don't like it a lot.

 

[Psychonaut]

also, i use avast and spybot search and destroy personally. found this pic not long ago.

 

[Ron Ronaldo]

Thanks for the tips, guys! =D

I installed Avast!, but the computer froze afterward and every time I try to scan the scan gets stuck D: So I'm not really sure what went wrong.

I'm scanning with Malwarebytes now, my computer's been acting pretty funky lately and I'd like to find out why. :U

I would say AVG but you have to buy it :/ Also yeah, Avast is the best free one.

McAfee slows down your computer more than what seems possible. Never use it.

Microsoft Security Essentials

I use Norton, but it's not free.

Norton? You're kidding me right? You really should cancel your subscription on Norton and move. Seriously, Norton says they have a great security system but they really don't. Norton's system thinks that every program is a hacktool, malware, worm, etc. I rather remove a virus by myself then using a rubbish program like that. Now, if you are getting it for free then I would use it.

You can use SmitFraud, it is pretty decent. I would advise you using it for technical use as if you don't, your PC can get bricked if you don't follow the instructions.

 

[Ron Ronaldo]

Thanks for the tips, guys! Does anyone know about Comodo (the free edition)? A friend of mine recommended it.
I had to uninstall Avast, because my computer basically stopped working. D:

 

[Rawburt]

You still have lots of virus problems Ronnie?

I use AVG, but I'm hardly a computer whiz guy.

AVG anti-virus is completely free
for the FULL AVG you need to pay. Tbh you can get AVG free anti-virus then just download Advanced system care 4, look online for a lisence code for it and you HAVE the equivilent for free > >

Stop promoting illegal activity. You are guilty of conspiracy to defraud.

Not really. It's not illegal to share the codes, just frowned upon, considering you buy the code and it works for an infinte amount of PCs. Dude you really need to stfu :l, tryin' to make me out to be some hacker or some ****.

With how you worded it in your previous post, now that does sound illegal. (In which, looking online for someone else's code for that) Buying it to do multiple computers that you own, within your house.. sure, whatever.
Either way, that's terrible licencing on the developer's part.
