[Konrad4]

What do you think is the best free antivirus software?

[Section8]

I like AVG ( Free Edition )

[boonchuan]

Clamav/Clamwin, open source and free.

[Tyler]

AVG without a doubt.

[Konrad4]

I run avast and AVG simultaneously. Could they interfere with each other?

[Pat H]

AVG all the way!

AVG's also my favorite.

AVG but now with the google pack norton for six months free isnt bad

[Pat H]

Looks like AVG is the clear winner here, Konrad4!

[Feena]

None. I've always just used a router and software firewall combo, never had a problem with viruses although I do the odd online scan.

Huh? Are you kidding me?

Avast is so much better than AVG!
Avast has realtime protection - that's saved me a good few times I can tell you.
I like their GUI too.

Now I run a router firewall, Zone Alarm, MS Antispyware (also with realtime protection to stop nasties) and a regular running of Ad-Aware.
I also run nearly the same setup on my old windows 98 computer. Switch MS AS for Arovax AS and Arovax Shield and that combo works perfectly for me.

I really hope not, as I run them simultaneously also. Never noticed any issues.

I think Bit Defender is the best, but I don't see it listed here.

I use Trend Micro Pc-Cillin and love it, Great program.
