Im using MSE.I didnt see any problem onto win7 till today.
The key word is TILL TODAY. He did not explain. I for one removed it almost instantly after BETA TEST... each will form there own opinion.
IMHO it really is NOT VERY GOOD. (one reason and that is enough for me. IT Does some things and it does not ask permission.
I used Symantec Corp untill I was introduced to ESET SS. install and click "Interactive Mode" that puts you in COMMAND.
AVG is good, but unless you have a VERY BIG HDD, it will soon plug you with the monster storage constantly growing logs.
If you use AVG I do recommend you have a very good JUNK CLEANER and run it weekly.
 
Again and again I continue to go back to Comodo Internet Security.
Awesome firewall, good A/V, multiple daily Virus database updates fast scans light on resources terrific help forums and free. What more can you ask for? ;)

tried MSE for about a week and finally junked it... tired of all the popups, it even said Windefender was flawed.

Im using MSE and i have had absolutely no problems, no popups of any kind.

Agree. That's why I use Eset (latest version) AV and Comodo just for its firewall. Great combo (both native x64) that work well together. Looking forward to the day when Eset's firewall in SS is as good as Comodo's.

Im using avast home on my pc. runs fast but the only problem is that interface. I was thinking of going for the free edition on avira. But the issue on that is the pop up window everytime you update the database i was reading. Should i switch?

Every time you do a MANUAL update it pops up.
I think you should switch, avast uses WAY to much RAM anyways.
COMODO is what I recommend.
COMODO internet security 3.10 has AMAZING prevention. Awesome antivirus, much better detection rate than 3.9. LOTS of updates, 3-5 times a day and is VERY light on resources.
You can find COMODO Internet security 3.10 (Free) Here: Firewall and AntiVirus Free Software Download from Comodo (Includes a GREAT firewall)
Avira free: free-av.com
Hope that helps!

i would be using MSE but my only problem with it is that there would always be a zillion updates in the windows update history and that bothers me. is there any way to prevent this? :sarc:
 
NOD 32 havemt had any problems yet Norton 360 would not update tech support told me to use beta version but wont offer any support untill it is officaly released:confused: but they were happy enough to take my money before they told me this avoid Norton
