What Anti Virus Software?

agw_01 · 8 Feb 2008 at 11:22

Sorry to hi-jack your thread Jimlad, but I'm looking for some AV software for a Windows 2003 Server machine.

I've only got one machine yet you can't buy a single user license for any of the available Win2k3 AV products I've looked at

Any ideas?

I use http://www.avg.co.uk/doc/buy/uk/crp/2 It's licensed for up to 5 connections and not to expensive. Select File Server Edition - £48

Thanks.

Avast for the win!

Avast/Antivir, either is best. Antivir has the smallest memory foot print of any anti-virus I've used.

NOD32

Eset Smart security (NOD32) paid for but well worth it

Second on that

Just put the full Kaspersky security suite on two vista pc's and its working really well, taking care of AV as well as firewall and parental control. Before using that i was on the AOL version of Kaspersky and have to say it beat AVG hands down.

I used to be an AVG fanboy till my machine got hideously infected (AV was up to date etc..) installed Avast on recomendation and it cleaned it nicely and I've not had a problem since... well untill the wife installed a Downloaded program and 'Ignored' the warnings recently :rolleyes:

I've got Avast Pro (Paid for) on my Main machine and Avast Home (free) on my Laptop!...

Very happy (after nearly killing the wife!!)

Recently had some issues with NOD32 blocking MSN. No real solution found, so i had to uninstall it.

Norton AntiVirus Corporate.v9.0.2.1000 Final (Configured too: Modified - Scan on create)

Morrey360 · 12 Mar 2008 at 16:06

Avast, I have heard goods things about zonealarm any of you guys agree?

RobH · 12 Mar 2008 at 16:14

Yup, Avast is what my girlfriend used to use until she got a Mac, I find it less resource hungry than AVG and just better overall. I don't use AV personally but I would pick Avast if i was building a PC for someone. Norton is worse than a lot of viruses on old Pc's, it does more harm than good.

CliffyBiro · 12 Mar 2008 at 16:15

Just installed Avast on a mate's PC for him.

NOD32 light footprint and the best anti-virus....if you are a gamer
