A Light & A Reliable AntiVirus???

i vote 4 AVG.... simple n effective

 

[digit i am thinking]

ONLY AVG free is light one. Others eat lot of memory.

I have tried Nod, AVG, Norton & Kaspersky. But personally, I like BitDefender. But I don't recommend it to you guys, unless you have a QuadCore Processor.

ONLY AVG free is light one. Others eat lot of memory.

Digit, Again you are thinking wrong. Check this sites:

Play with Kaspersky or Nod, both are better. If you need a professional solution, bitdefender is the best.

why not Avast? it's free and also very light on system.

Please don't go for Avast.
I installed the Avast on my x64 Win XP and surfed the net. There seems to be no problem at all. But when I scaned my x86 Win XP with Kaspersky internet security. It showed me 17 viruses. Scaning on x86 XP was performed just after the scaning of x64 XP.
And one biggest problem Avast allows viruses to enter your PC but does not allows the virus to leave your PC. So it is good for other PC if you install it on your PC.

In any case Avast and AVG free are licensed only for home and personal use, for office use, you will have to purchase the paid version.

You can also have ClamWin Portable as a second line antivirus coz as of now it does not have realtime scanning. So you have to manually scan the files and PC.
