Question Which antivirus do you use?

WHICH ANTIVIRUS DO YOU USE?

We used to use Norton years ago & then they missed a bad virus.

We heard many good things about TrendPCillian & used that for years.

But in mid Feb - Trend let a spyware/trojan ruin our computer.
The most disappointing thing was that they never were able to help us rid of trojan. Even after hours on phone with them.
Plus they had us send a comnputer log & they NEVER responded.

So which antivirus/spyware program do you recommend?

Thanks,
Kathy

We have Norton 360.

Just recently we got a bad virus, Norton missed it and it was a pita to get rid of.

We tried Spybot S&D and that didn't work, we finally got rid of it with malwarebytes.

I used Norton for years and I also got a virus
and it slowed down my computer.

Now I use Avast. It is another free one.

Free antivirus software download

I use AVG. Have had no problems at all. I also use malwarebytes. Both are free.

I used AVG for years, but I started experiencing problems with it updating recently. I switched over to the free version of Avast, and I haven't had any problems.
