Get Free Really Good Anti Virus Software Here!
 
Quite Random Sorry!

http://www.download.com/Malwarebytes...=dl&tag=button

Thought my anti virus software was reasonably good, norton, up to date, best i could buy..

Computers been running a bit weird, so did a full system scan with norton, only 1 infected area, a tracking cookie (no big deal).

Mate suggested this download, downloaded, ran.
In 10 minutes, 26 infected areas.
wow :(
No wonder she runs so badly..

1763 pieces of infected data..
Surely something wrong, something to do with video egg, the video uploader for bebo...
removed them all, doesnt seem to have changed anything..
But i run with lyk 8-10 windows open, so my comp cant keep up :(

Anyone with computer knowledge got an opinion?

Got rid of my Norton software years ago, made my PC run really slow. Used AVG Free since and have had no problems.
But I'll be interested to see what the Tech Heads say

AVG

I use it, our IT guy at work uses it on his home computers, Ibby uses it. No problems so far. The free version updates virsus definitions automatically. I used to have Norton Anti-virus and found it very invasive. It also had a habit of stopping me email working for some reason.

AGV for sure. It took me nearly 2 hours to completely remove Norton from my computer as it was EVERYWHERE.
