I REALLY need to get some virus protection (anti-virus software) and I’m willing to spend some extra money to get it. What kind of (non-free) virus protection do you think is the best you can buy?
Thanks!

Definately McAfee. you can buy it at walmart and target for $29.99, very reliable, i did online school this year, and they sent me a computer with mcafee on it, and i never had anything wrong with it. it is probably the best…..(my sister in laws father is a computer person, and he says McAfee is the best protection out there!)
NEVER use norton. its the worse. my moms laptop had about 7 viruses from different times, we had to put it in the shop everytime because she had it, and our other computer had norton, and totally crashed, luckily it works now, but we had to loose everything that was on it, (our computer of 6 years) so it had many memories stored on it.
Don’t even bother spending money. Use Avast Anti-Virus. I used this program, and it found viruses on my computer that were slowing it down, that I didn’t even know were there! Best of all, it’s completely free.

Avg,Kaspersky and bitdefender are best softwares.
kaspersky.also the new norton anti-virus is very good.doesn’t slow my pc down at all.much lighter than the old norton ever was. eset nod32.very good.one of those three will serve you well.glad to see someone on yahoo answers isn’t settling for that new avg CRAP.
Kaspersky.com ZoneAlarm.com Avira.com TrendMicro.com a complete suite of one of these should keep you safe
Some of the big ones are Bitdefender.com,Trendmicro.com,Panda Security.com,Kaspersky Labs.com. I would go to cnet.com,and to pcworld.com and read reviews from each site to get a good idea of what results on testing and go with who had the highest anti-virus catcher.
Honestly, it all depends on what you download. Your surfing and download habits can still infect any computer regardless of the "BEST" anti-virus. But, Mcafee is a good AV protection program. Before you buy, look on overstock.com. They should have a deal going on now. Good Luck.
Kaspersky by far. Their databases update at least every hour and protect against all viruses and new threats like Conficker and since I download stuff everyday, I scan and get all of the viruses that are on some of the programs.
Hope This Helps!!! 🙂
