few days back my net was down..Reason?? my MAC was blocked by my ISP because my computer was infected with virus..i tried out NOD 32..not satisfied…Kaspersky..Not satisfied…Zone Alarm..Not at all satisfied…So, i was compeltely confused as to which other antivirus i could use …so i did a google search for the keyword “Best Antivirus” and i stumbled upon the follwoing link…
It gives a review for the top ten Antivirus softwares rank wise for the year 2008..Kaspersky and NOD 32 came in 2nd and 3rd respectively and the all famous Norton comes in at 8th:rofl: …but wot i didn’t expect was the number 1 Anti virus software goes by the name Bitdefender…haven’t tried it out so downloading it today…I am hearing it for the first time so will try it and c how it is..
P.S:my apologies for not posting this in the right section…i did it by mistake…Mods if u wish,plz move it to the Security Solutions Section…
One thing to note is that any Antivirus how good it may be is only effective before an infection… So all those mentioned in the list atleast Nod32, Kasperskey, Avast & Bitdefender are pretty good provided they are installed & updated before an infection..
If Nod & Kasperskey didn’t worked for you then I don’t think Bitdefender will do any good… :no:
a very good point…the opinions will vary.. u c, my first usage with Nod 32 and Kaspersky weren’t good just because of the fact because i was using the ahem version of the software..if u purchased Kaspersky or Nod 32 then by all means u have the perfect right to say wot u just said above…
I also have the similar opinion, that there is no Anti virus that’s perfect..today its bitdefender..tommorrow, may b some other brand…
bitdefender?? hadnt heard about it..
Well, ive also tried many anti viruses & i found AVAST best of all. (my own expernce).
Norton & panda r very heavy on system..:@
Will try bitdefender today.
Kaspersky i good antivirus.I have been using past 2 years no virus have cause any mayhem in my pc.Good thing about this antivirus is that i concedes resources as when needed to OS.
if ur claim or theory is correct plz prove it..since i can’t :S …but i will say this :cool2: …if bitdefender used the same kaspersky engine..y on earth wud they show kaspersky to be the second ?:S
Eggzactly. @Balkazzaar, there are dozens of sites like that with their own so called reviews and I don’t think any site that doesn’t mention their testing procedure (if they have any outside of listing feature sets) should be taken seriously.
its not free and the ahem versions aint stable…every now and then ur key gets blacklisted…i used to use it…but now switched to Avast which is really kewl
i didn’t take offense at all man… the thing is i was completely confused by wot u meant by that statement..that’s y i asked that’s all..
i repeat…no offense taken…
the problem is i really need a good AV software fast and that too a good one…
…but wot i didn’t expect was the number 1 Anti virus software goes by the name Bitdefender…haven’t tried it out so downloading it today…I am hearing it for the first time so will try it and c how it is..
(my own expernce).
