    Antivirus review (whats been working and not)


    I have tried a few AV programs such as:

    • AVG (fails to download updates after a few weeks of use)
    • Bit Defender (crashed)


    I am using the latest RC (build 7100) and would like to put a AV to work, but don't want to go through the trials and errors if some of you have had success.

    Oh and I don't want to pay for AV. I dont use the bloatware that comes with them like firewall and the like.

    Looking for a AV... that's it.

    If you could pay, NOD32 and ESET Smart Security are good :) They're perfect.
    I'm using ESET Smart Security 4 x64 and it runs perfectly without any problems :)

    which version? because i used the latest trial version (32-bit), and it would not update.
    so i switched to 4.0.3xx and it works fine.

    Maybe it was some bug, that Eset has to iron out?
