AVG Pro 7.0 is good. i have it on all my computers and jay c (u know ben) has it i think.... its really easy to use and can heal infected files (Y)

(so can most but owel, lol)
there is a free option of avg but it doesnt heal files..... you can 'buy' avg 7 easily though....

RE: How many Viruses by Naruto on 03-23-2005 at 09:59 AM

RE: How many Viruses by user44571 on 03-23-2005 at 10:22 AM

lol, my last one revealed about 15, but thats only because my n00b of a virus scanner see's how limewire shares files, and then detects it, but before that one i had three trojans :banana:

RE: How many Viruses by Rik on 03-23-2005 at 10:54 AM

RE: How many Viruses by kao on 03-23-2005 at 11:07 AM

RE: How many Viruses by Dane on 03-24-2005 at 06:24 AM

By last scan when I had my virus collection, I had 5,085 viruses, from December 2001-December 2005. I have them on my exclusion list though. My last scan of viruses I didnt know I had indicated 8.

This is the most n00bish statement i've seen. Norton AntiVirus has always come with 1 year of updates (Retail), or 6-months (When installed on new PC). McAfee AntiVirus comes with 1 year of updates (Retail/New PC). Changing to McAfee over updates is the stupidest thing you could've done, Norton is much better and costs the same as McAfee and you get the same amount of updates. Just my 2 cents.

I'm sorry but I always heard and read that McAfee is better that Norton, and i'm sorry if i was rong.. but were i get McAfee they told me that the updates were free
