I bought Vista the other day. You must have missed the reply to YOU

My experience is that it too is a bit resource intensive, causing system

slowdowns, though I haven't used the most current version.

 

My opinion is that good AV software should be unnoticeable unless a

virus is found. Some reviews of BitDefender also indicate it has a

slightly higher than others rate of false positives.

Not a lie. I also bought an ASUS motherboard. Course, it's triple

booting with XP Pro and Ubuntu and Vista will only be used for the new

games that require DX10.

Providing a link to something that does not answer the question asked of

the OP, not even close to answering it, is trolling and OT.

 

The best is one you can afford, will remain updated, has support, and

has minor impact on system performance during normal operation.

Frank is your typical lowlife newsgroup bully. He can dish out insults

but can't take the return volley. This loser has been proven a fool

and liar so many times it is laughable. I REALLY think Frank is

mentally disturbed. He sure acts that way.

Well yes but some are worse than others. One Care can't even do a very good

job with known malware.

While I've gone long periods of time without AV on my windows machine with

no trouble, this is bad advice to be bandying around... the sort of people

who have to ask with help in this subject are the sort that probably don't

know enough to be careful and prudent.

 

I've likened the need for AV in the past to car safety features.

 

Antivirus programs are like a seatbelt or an airbag. They can usually but

not always do a job of saving your bacon when something goes wrong, but all

the seatbelts and airbags in the world will never make it 'safe' to crash

your car on purpose. And as for being a good enough driver to not need these

things, that might technically be true but even the best people have

accidents sometimes.

Thanks, I know that site quite well. You'll notice it actually links to one

I have every AV solution on the market, purchasable, except NOD, bit

defender is not my first choice. If you're going to "Pay" for AV

software, if you can afford the 5 license minimum, get Symantec

Corporate Edition 10.2 for Workstations and Servers. This one, while you

are suppose to renew your maintenance contract very year, currently gets

updates well past the 1 year mark - I know people still using v8 that

are getting daily updates and they've not renewed their support for 5+

years - if you consider that, the cost is cheaper for the corporate

version than for x years of a home version.

 

SCE is very easy on resources.

Great home products that I'd be quite happy to point out to people looking

for AV for a home computer, but I've not seen evidence that either of them

'scale' to enterprise deployment. And we're back to my point about no single

product being "the best" because they all meet different requirements.

It's good to see that you've learned from your Ubuntu mistake and have

moved to Windows - congrats. I can't imagine anyone with your massive

amount of Linux experience even wanting to use Vista unless you've

failed to master Linux or unless your Linux platform failed to provide

the resources you needed - after all, you are the one telling everyone

TOO BAD for getting vista, and that Ubuntu is the solution.

 

Sounds very hypocritical of you to be buying something you rail against.

It's a triple boot with XP and Ubuntu. I only bought Vista to see what

it's like and for when the games need DX10. I'm not impressed or wowed

by it, although the search feature is almost as good as Beagle.
