I use AVG Antivirus on my Sony Laptop and at our office, because of which i have purchased a multi-licence of the latest version ie AVG 8.x which offers excellent protection. I just made a renewal of my licence and recieved a free extra licence which i wont be using anyway on my computer and i would like to offer it for free to my readers. There are many antivirus softwares available on the web but i generally prefer Avg and Kaspersky because both of these are super quick in scanning and also they dont use any heavy system resources unlike norton antivirus which i really hate.

Nice share Amit, I use Norton Internet Security Suite 2008, Ive tried AVG 8 free version and liked it for its speed and less memory consumption when compared to Norton, but switched to Norton coz it offers allround security when compared to the free version of AVG.This license will help me move over to a lighter and efficient AV.

i am using AVAST Home Edition antivirus. it is really a very nice anitivirus. its faster in speed and its use to update its database daily! its provide very good security too. its easy to use and its provide free licence.

Hi Amit,
I am using Norton and I will stick to it… AVG sucks… sorry but it DO SUCKS… there are many viruses which it cant even scan… so All Hail Norton… I have enough RAM in my lappy to gt Norton work good for me 😉 who need AVG hehe… choose some desprate guy out there seeking for free copy 😀
Sorry for harsh comment!
Nitin says
Hi Amit, Its really great to receive your mails. Keep up the good work! I use eScan but I’m not finding it too good, especially since pen-drives and ext HDDs are a menace bcoz of VBScripting et al. You may send me the license please for which I shall be greatly indebted to you. Thanks and regards.

Hello Amit, Its great to receive your emails about the latest in technology. I use ESET Smart Security and it is very good. It does not eat memory at all and takes care of the system well. Regarding AVG plus Kaspersky,particularly for kaspersky it gets so jumbled up in the registry file to remove it takes a hell lot of practise. AVG license I want to check how good it is compare to NEO that I use.
karthiram says
hi amit,
i use NOD 32 which is better when compared to AVG, that is my opinion. NOD is fast to scan and update.
avinaash says
sir ive been reading ur articles from the past two months. they are very much informative and innovative.I used avast anti-virus for nearly 1 year( free home version) that was really cool.now ive switched to norton (90 days trail version) ;this might make the system slow but i belive in its capability to detect virus or any trojans;

Hi Amit,
I am a big fan of AVG and have been using the same over 4 yrs, but never bothered to actually buy an AVG licence. I have been using the free one so far. The fact is I have not so far found any paid or free version of antivirus which is as good as AVG.
cheers!

Hi Amit,
I came to know about this AVG anti virus through my friend. He told very high about AVG. At that moment I felt like having one for myself. Currently I am using NAV-2006 Trial version for time being because of some financial issues.

I’m on AVG right now but the free one. And yeah kaspersky is a must have too … 🙂 ..
AMIT says
Hello Amit,
I’m using McAfee 8.0.0. Its not working well.
yamini says
i m using mcfee.. but it is bit disappointing, i tried norton but it was also not able to detect virus like recyler etc….n these are memory consuming…avast is fine but avg is good…but it have trail version ..
Amit says
Like always just bought a single AVG license yesterday, AVG internet security suite is looking good. I think it is a good investment made. The firewall module is bit of a pain initially to configure but I still feel the HTTP traffic scanner is not as cool as ESET NOD 32 🙂 which i used some days back.
yamini says
hi amit, i was also using ESET NOD 32 some days back, but hav to change to AVG as i was creating a havoc in my laptop, it never allows meto open any external hard disks as it detected virus(which was good) but it never cleans it…n keep on giving messeges which was really annoyng..i am now tryng AVG 8…but it is also not detectng torjan like autorun,n reg etc
