Best Antivirus?

What do you reckon the Best Antivirus is?
i have been using NTL antivirus software but im not that impressed, + the last couple of days my home page has been changed and i can't change it back to what it was before :confused:

i have used spybot and adware but to no avail!! maybe some trojon software has somehow got into my system.

So my question is NOD32 worth getting?

Thanks for your help guys

nod32 gets my vote, its fast, small, very effective and uses very few system resources.
But, it almost certainly wont fix your problem.

You've opened a can of worms now! You should have searched for your question and it would probably bring up about 30 threads lol.

In answer to your question, yes NOD32 is worth getting and for the majority of people on here is the best AV they have used.

No doubt someone will reply disagreeing which will lead to another big debate which is why I am going to dive for cover

£23.00 for a year.

Renewal is cheaper than that but I forget what the exact price is, something like £15 or so.

£23 for one pc for one year, there are discounts for multiple lisences. Do the 30 day trial, its the full AV and can be upgraded to full.

You will also get a free upgrade to the new NOD32 ver 3.0 when it is released.

Oooh sounds good. Any idea when that is out? Got any links to news/info or is it just looking on the nod32 site?

This was an early image shown at CeBit:

It is rumoured to be released around August/September time, but no one knows for sure at the moment. They are suppost to be Alpha testing it now - and there it is also rumoured that they will release a public BETA of it.

Note that that is the Security Suite version of NOD32 3.0. There will be two versions released, that Suite and the standalone AV. Its not known if current NOD32 users will be offered a free upgrade to the standalone version of the suite.

Nice. My 1 year licence expires on September 20th so if I don't get a free upgrade to the new one I will get a new licence.

It has been said in an interview with the founder of Eset that it will be released in a few months.
