Which Antivirus or Internet Security and WHY?

[nma1990]

Hello Gentlemen.

I want to know you guys use which Antivirus or Internet Security and WHY?

I start with myself.

I use comodo internet security and the reason is because:

First of all it is free so no need to find keys or crack and so on.

Second it has a great user interface specially in firewall and you can make it interactive mode and it will ask you for every connections even if u put it so high and delete all defaults rule for ping 127.0.0.1 it asks your permission.

Third it has HIPS so sometimes you need to track down your software and what they do and which resources they access.

Fourth it has sandbox and it is very useful.

Fifth it has great data base of all softwares and it knows which one is trustable and which not and which to ask.

Sixth it shows you current network connection and in very good user interface and GUI(some AVs do not show like AVG)

Seventh it blocks behavior so if new virus or malware or Trojan comes it scans it and detect it by behavior.

Eights the interactive mode is so awesome which will ask for network connection,software installation,permission and rights to a software and so on.

My second internet security as choice is ESET SMART SECURITY but it is not as good as comodo.

Share your opinion toward what you use with me.

Thanks In Advance

Malwarebytes premium with windows own defender and firewall.I rarely get anything.

No Real-Time AV, here. :dance2: :whistle:

[Pedrito]

I use nothing!

There's no need for it, if you know what you're doing.

They only slowdown your system and sometimes lead it to other problems...

Thanks

Its because kaspersky is lighter on resources but heavier on viruses unlike bitdefender(that slows down system like hell and also the black screen -boot bug kills me :wtf: :duh: :doh: )

it has been scoring excellent in both AV-Test and AV-Comparatives

also its sleek and eye-candy UI makes it more easy to operate

RECENTLY we compared and seen that KIS is even lighter than ESET

here' the screenshot of KIS running in background

see the screenshot my kaspersky running in background has only 72.5 mb RAM and in my tests ESEt took 110-150mb RAM

b/w during scanning times RAM usage may go till 200mb

HOPE u GOT ur ANswer

Apart from @ kantry123 correct comment..There will never be a valid one.

Symantec Endpoint Protection is not designed / meant for a home user scenario. Home / small network users are advised to go a different route with an AV protection product suited for their environment.

To configure SEP managed / unmanaged correctly apart from the bare bones installer a user needs:-

A Symantec corporate user account, without this it is not possible to download the necessary extra protection modules.

Good SEP configuration knowledge / install skills that take a great deal of time to acquire in order for the product to be set up for appropriate security protection @ the work place.

You gentlemen are both saying a correct things but I said that because kantry123 talked about Database and I doubt any AVs has as complete as their Database.

By starting this topic I wanted to seek how people choose their AVs or Internet securities and tbh till now did not satisfied well :P.

Imo no GUI or interface for an internet security reached what comodo reached and can not deny that eset is near to them.About the detection pattern blocking of comodo is good and imo it can defeat ESET and Kaspersky and so on.

Thanks for your information sharing.

I appreciate your questions & open mindedness.... :)

The topic of different / best security solutions has been discussed in the forums many times. At the end of the day it boils down to running with a comprehensive multi layered approach from suppliers with a proven track record that the user feels most comfortable in applying the correct rules to provide the best protection for their location.

[morteza]

Do you have AV test company? :)

Old question again :((

You can choose some Antivirus with high questions and it's not fun for some guys or u can be happy with silent protection like Bit or Kasper or ESET or Norton...

Be happy with your AV and be smart , these are two things for clean PC :) .

Don't be mad guy :)

Gentlemen the question is not which is better.

The question is why people chose them,what they had that made that user choose them and you are right meanwhile we discussed about advantages and best and so on. but main question is what made users to choose that.

@nma1990......Neither @morteza or myself were saying one product was better than another, but confirming why people have their own preferences.

My reasons for opting for the gateway, server & endpoint security solutions that are in place @ our sites is that they come from suppliers with an excellent track record. Plus with the customised modules rules that we have applied, I feel safe being covered by that umbrella.

Our set up would be impractical / not cost effective for a user with a single pc. They would feel best protected with a reputable integrated AV / Firewall combo / separate products / AV + Windows Firewall, for their own personal individual feature reasons.

All the major players offer very similar overall levels of protection, so its boils down to the user to test & then decide what plays best with their own requirements.

Mike

@nma1990

The question is same bro ... You can choose every thing only be happy with it ( If u want Comodo for its notifications choose it or if u want to silent & automatic protection choose other ) and be smart in opening websites , Don't open unknown and suspicious files & emails , ....

Security is not AV this is procedure , AV is a tool for better protection and is your assistant in this procedure ...

Very nice sentences.Thanks for them.

And [Don't open unknown and suspicious files & emails] <<< about this part it is for semi pro or pro guys not simple users and for example Morteza AVG does not show current network and ports on your network so that is a big weakness.
