The website PCmag.com, which is specialised in criticism of computer-related activities listed the best antivirus of 2013. On their list, three products share the top spot, which are Bitdefender antivirus 2013, Norton antivirus 2013 and Webroot SecureAnywhere antivirus 2013.
Some virus protection programs are Bitdefender they won the 2013 Gold award for this year.There is also Vipre and Norton Anti-virus programs just to mention a few.
There are many software programs that offer protection against phishing malware. Some programs are Norton Anti-Virus, McAfee, and Microsoft Security Essentials.
AVG and avast.
While this question is looking for an opinion and that makes this a question looking for a subjective answer (which is against the rules of the question task), some free anti virus protection programs are Avast and AVG, if you download the free version.
There are so many good virus protection products out there, but after doing some major research it seems the preferred virus protection for a laptop is Kaspersky.
Well there are also some free virus protection for your computers, but with a small business computers system I would recommend checking out Norton's they have many programs to chose from.
Uninstall the virus protection. (Some are notoriously difficult to get rid of).
Some programs such as McAfee and Norton Anti-Virus have free 30 day trials that you can download. Other known downloads are Microsoft Security Essentials as well as AVG Anti-Virus Free.
Having multiple anti virus programs on your computer can cause them to interfere with each other, making them both obsolete. There are some anti virus programs you can run together that won't cause this to happen. It is best to only have one anti virus on your computer. Try looking at some higher end virus removal programs such as: Kaspersky, Bit Defender, and NOD32. All three of those are very good programs.
It depends if the program comes from a reliable vendor if they do then NO however free AV programs are not a refined as paid programs so they may produce false positives more often. But a some free anti-virus programs are actually a virus/trojan and they will fake viruses and try to get you to pay to remove them. and steal your credit card number if you want some free good reliable anti-virus programs i would recommend: Avira, Avast, Trendmicro, IObit, AVG, and Malwarebytes
Babylon is not a virus but is considered as a Potentially-Unwanted-Program (PUP). It is usually bundled with some programs like those music downloading programs or some other downloader programs.
