Reqteh wrote AVG is the best because it has more arrangements with the solar panel and binds the code to connect with each other.

-Reqteh


I have no idea what this guy is talking about. They are almost even, Norton has a more friendly GUI though. I prefer MSE.

By the sounds of it looks like your buying one just download AVG 2013 from a well known torrent site and your computer is fine

Moved to PC Support.

It failed AV-Test's certification and other free options are better.

OP, Norton is excellent and, if you're paying, arguably your best option. If you want a free solution, go with Avast.

I feel like I was just on a topic very similar to this with r00t, MBAM is NOT an anti virus and should NOT be used as such. MBAM IS a tool that can be used with an anti virus, but in no circumstances should it substitute one.

Bitdefender is another AV that a lot of people like, I'm currently switching from MSE (due to the above reasons) to bitdefender. I'll let you know how it compares.

Sorry for the mistake, I make frequent scans so im in no trouble but if youre looking for an active AV then i like MSE due to it being free and thorough
