Antivirus + Antispyware

Today i would like to introduce a combo set of antivirus + antispyware. VIPRE antivirus & antispyware is a high-performance security software that doesn't slow down your PC like older, traditional antivirus products. Accroding to PC Magazine's security expert, they gave VIPRE an excellent review with 4 stars. I believe VIPRE (Virus Intrusion Protection Remediation Engine) will be able to protect your PC against virus, adware & spyware.

If your PC is using Windows 95/98/ME, then you will not be able to install the application. Also minimum 512MB RAM is required.

Below screenshot is a comparison of VIPRE performace (CPU usage during scan) against other competitors:

Norton Antivirus Gaming Edition 2009

Feel frustrated when you are in a middle of a game, suddenly there is a popup to remind you to update your antivirus ? Or your antivirus slowdown your PC performance ? I just tried this latest version of norton antivirus gaming edition, it will auto switch to gaming mode when you are playing game, there is no more interruptions & popup. I will say this is much more better in terms of performance compare to other version of norton antivirus.

You can get more info from symantect website for their latest antivirus.

Download Free Antivirus

Want to get some free antivirus software instead of paying any cost from $100 to few hundreds bucks? Many people may not realise they can get a fully functioning antivirus just for free.

AVG - one of the popular free antivirus that is easy to install and configure. Regular updates are available as well. One of my preference antivirus.

Kaspersky online virus scanner is a great way to find out if you have any viruses or spyware on your machine without having to uninstall your current antivirus software or install a new one. Most importantly, you can see what viruses your current antivirus software let slip through!
