A CD will have been shipped with virus signatures at the time of its production. Your virus may be a later made virus and thus the disk, and the program on it, won't know of this particular virus until a update is applied.

On Wikipedia, a hacker is defined as such:

"Hacker, as it relates to computers, has several common meanings. Hacker is often used by the mass media to refer to a person who engages in computer cracking and is also often by those in computing fields to refer to a person who is a computer enthusiast. At least three major hacker subcultures, characterized by their largely distinct historical development, use the term in their jargon for self-identification. They are centered around different, but partially overlapping aspects of computers and have conflicting ideas about who may legitimately be called a hacker (see hacker definition controversy). In computer security, a hacker is someone who focuses on security mechanisms. In common use, which was popularized by the mass media, that refers to someone who illegally breaks into computer and network systems. That is, the media portrays the 'hacker' as a villain. Nevertheless, parts of the subculture see their aim in correcting security problems and use the word in a positive sense. They operate under a code of the Hacker Ethic, in which it's acknowledged that breaking into other people's computers is bad, but that discovering and exploiting security mechanisms and breaking into computers is nevertheless an interesting aspect that can be done in an ethical and legal way. This use is contrasted by the different understanding of the word as a person who follows a spirit of playful cleverness and loves programming. It is found in an originally academic movement unrelated to computer security and most visibly associated with free software and open source. It also has a hacker ethic, based on the idea that writing software and sharing the result is a good idea, but only on a voluntary basis, and that information should be free, but that it's not up to the hacker to make it free by breaking into private computer systems. Academic hackers disassociate from the mass media's pejorative use of the word 'hacker' referring to computer security, and usually prefer the term 'cracker' for that meaning. In a third meaning, the term refers to computer hobbyists who push the limits of their software or hardware."

So by this definition the bad side is essentially fear mongering and a few individuals giving the whole group a bad name. According to the various legitimate definitions, there is plenty of good that can and has come from hacking. Most of the wondrous technical achievements of the past fifty years can be attributed to hackers at play, from the advent of video games with Spacewar! on the PDP-1 to the Mars rovers, and SpaceShipOne.

Every community will have its bad eggs, but if one only focuses on the few, they miss the benefit of the many.

according to all uses here are some ratings

and also bcause it is made in India.

2.Avg:bcause it is freely available and a good one.and provides protection against spyware too.

3.kasper sky : very good one for resident protection u are protected by kasper sky lab

4.norton antivirus 2009:it is a good one by symantec company however symantec is not good one as far as i suggest.

5.avast home and pro :it is only bcause after norton bcause it slows down the PC bacause it scans throgh out the time your computer is on .

6.mc kafee : good one but i am not using it right now may be in future

You cannot do that. You can install the program itself on an external drive by it should be connected all the time if you want to use virus guard. If you have a virus guard which you trust on your PC you don't need to have it all your external drives. When you have connected an external drive run full scan on it.

Well, if you suspect you have a virus, the best thing to do is to get virus protection. Unless you want to do it the old fashion way and reboot (not restart) your computer, but you really won't need to do that unless it's a major virus that anti-virus can't kill, plus you can lose files that way. There are some free anti-virus protection software. One is called AVG it should be free, I recommend getting it off a trusted site like Cnet. NOTE: When you get virus protection, make sure you don't another virus protection enabled with it, it can mess up your computer, so make sure all virus protections are uninstall before downloading a new one.

Yes super anti spyware is one of the best anti spyware free products

SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition is 100% Free and will detect and remove thousands of Spyware, Adware, Malware, Trojans, KeyLoggers, Dialers, Hi-Jackers, and Worms. SUPERAntiSpyware features many unique and powerful technologies and removes spyware threats that other applications fail to remove.

Simply put, AVG Free Edition is well-designed and built.

Grisoft released the free edition in order to attract attention and fame. Ever since, it has gained more and more popularity as Grisoft included anti-spyware, internet security and other features into its program.

Personally, I recommend the program, but I also recommend Avast and Microsoft Security Essentials.
