With all of these PC virus going around the web, what security programs do you use to keep your PC clean and safe? I use Norton Security Suite, and Windows Defender.
 
I am not much worried about my PC security, I have the Avira Anti Virus which was pre-installed when I purchsed my laptop.
 
I'm using Bitdefender at the moment and I have no problems or issues with it, seems like it's a really nice anti virus and also got some interesting features like insta cleaning the trash files, fixing errors, et cetera.
 
<p>I have avria, anti malware, spyware destory, windows firewall, PC regirestory scanner, and a few other things like hirens boot CD to ensure my PC stays clean.</p>
 
I use Microsoft essentials, the free version.
I started with norton but every year it went up in price.
One year I discovered that when you bought it new, it was $10 less than what I was paying as a 5 year long customer, and that did it for me, that was enough.
I also use malwarebytes, great program!
 
I use mac os x and only download and install apps that are signed. Don't think you need an antivirus program on mac.

I wouldn't be so sure about that, these guys are targeting macs so it's better to be safe than sorry.
 
I'm using the free anti-virus, Avast for about two years. It is free and I think it is doing pretty good. There's no need to buy a anti-virus nowadays.
Since I started using it, I have not been affected by any virus. Just be caution download software or games you trust, and you will be fine.

Well most of the times you have to install an app or enable java and then accept the injection. Most of the times common sense is the best antivirus ;)

Yes! It is paid, and it would just up to you if if stick to that or else find other premium which suits your tastes and has good reviews online
 
I have Avira free antivirus. I might upgrade later this year. Or maybe I'll get a new antivirus. I still haven't decided yet.
 
I use Norton as a security program to keep my computer safe. It has done a fantastic job and it has kept my computer safe from viruses.
