Re: honestly, how good is AVG free antivirus?
Then your scans will miss a lot of new stuff and take ages to do compared to the others. But I don't care. Use whatever keeps you happy.
I know I will never use Norton again. Way too many viruses were able to find their way into my system without a warning from it. Of course I know I probably have different demands from many others since I willingly open a lot of files that could be infected. Thats why I need to have an antivirus with advanced heuristics that will catch a lot of stuff that hasn't made it into any definitions yet. With NOD32, Kerio firewall and ProcessGuard I have dodged a lot of bullets I wouldn't have with a full set of Norton products. In fact I would have a trojan/keylogger on my computer right now since a file I downloaded yesterday had one in it that Norton can't detect.
In fact I will keep this file and test to see how long it takes Norton to catch it.
