WinXP.Sp2 Home....AMD Athlon3000 1.81 GHz, 512MB RAM.Which is the best
anti-virus to use that will not slow computer down too much? Now using trial version of AVG Professonal. Also got Zone Alarm Pro. Always used Norton with the Utilities...I did like the Utilites part. Need to buy something but want the best protection. And something that won't make it so slow for starting up. Suggestions? |

AVG AntiVirus FREE Edition:
http://free.grisoft.com/ I've been using it for years. I love it. It uses roughly half the memory that Norton does. It also has all of the features that you'll want, including real-time protection, automatic scans and right-click scanning options within Windows Explorer. -- ------------------------------------------ Donny Broome http://www.broomeman.com/tech/ ------------------------------------------ "Judy" <Judy@spamex.com> wrote in message news:Xz9vf.2372$H37.384054@news20.bellglobal.com.. . > WinXP.Sp2 Home....AMD Athlon3000 1.81 GHz, 512MB RAM.Which is the best > anti-virus to use that will not slow computer down too much?

I have been using Avast for a number of years, without problems. It's a free utility for non commercial home use and can be found at; http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html "Judy" <Judy@spamex.com> wrote in message news:Xz9vf.2372$H37.384054@news20.bellglobal.com.. . > WinXP.Sp2 Home....AMD Athlon3000 1.81 GHz, 512MB RAM.Which is the best > anti-virus to use that will not slow computer down too much?
