I use AVG-Free, which I found to be excellent. It is free, it works in the background, and covers you against malware and spyware too.

You can google for it. Make certain that you install the latest version. Also, you will need to configure it (the interface is easy) so that the daily scan is kept enabled or disabled. (The default is enabled, but I've disabled it on mine, as it slows down the system during the scan, and it interferes with my working, hence I've put the scan on manual.)

Self - belief is the most potent force.

Yes Mandrake...You are absolutely right. It is one of the best antivirus softwares. Now AVG Internet Security 8.5 is the current version. I have used it. Really good yaar.

Yogihit ji, you can go for this. Click here to download.

I have been using Avira Antivir free version for many years which can be downloaded from here:

http://www.free-av.com/en/trialpay_downloa..._antivirus.html

This year I purchased the paid version which has a few extra features like faster download of updates, etc. Still the free version also uses the same engine and is one of the best around.

I believe Microsoft is soon gonna come out with their own free anti-virus. I would expect it to be quite good/efficient.

By the way -- have you ppl used Windows 7 - it is really awesome. Using it for the last many months (since its Beta release) ... way better than Vista and perhaps XP as well.

there is hindi saying, I will paraphrase.

"The amount of sugar you put in is how much sweet it will be."

I bet you don't take in account purchasing of anti viruses and spyware
every year. How about re-installing every so often due to slowdown.
If you compare in equal terms it is quite cheap.
but you expect to have some kind of sale so you
get the illusion of discount. obviously it is not
cheap in India because of VAR and duties.
You can always buy refurbished or previous model (which is discounted)
when new model is released. Also you can get 10% discount on educational
purchases.

I think its more of choice and requirement thing, one cannot have dessert for main course.

Well if you are going to play with words. then

Cola is cheaper than Water.
Processed food is cheaped than fruits and vegetable.
fat, sugar and vitamins are cheaper than chewing.

Take your pick of analogy and run with it.


When you get cancer than drug companies will sell you are the drugs you need to feel good.

No i am not playing with words. all i am saying choice is personal and based on requirements.
cola can never be cheaper than water, water can come for free.. not cola so lets not get deviated.

Mac generally is costly proposition and not many companies use that. Also if one happens to work for Microsoft shop, good or excellent, MAC doesn't do any good.
