From the recent antivirus software review of 2008,the top ten antivirus softwares have been listed as follows:
1)BitDefender
2)Kaspersky Anti-Virus
3)ESET Nod32
4)AVG Anti-Virus
5)F-Secure Anti-Virus
6)Trend Micro
7)McAfee VirusScan
8)Norton AntiVirus
9)CA Antivirus
10)Norman Antivirus and Antispyware
The information has been given in the website http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenreviews.com/.
But, if someone asks me which antivirus i would choose ,then i would always go for ESET Nod32.Its not because i am some kind of a brand ambassador of Nod32 but only due to the fact that its protection level is very high combined with the fact that a person can use it very effectively also in a PC of lower configuration.It does not make your PC slow.When you start your PC for the 1st time,it loads very quickly.Many of the antiviruses which are big names in the market have this problem of loading slowly when you start the PC.Antivirus softwares are meant to keep your PC not only free from threats but also to make your PC respond quickly when you give a command.
A few days ago my brother-in-law bought the BitDefender antivirus for his PC,the reason being that it's the no.1 antivirus software as per reviews.His PC has a low configuration.It has a celeron processor.After installing the antivirus on his machine,his system got very slow and he was having difficulty in opening pages,even those of Microsoft word.So he unistalled the antivirus and installed Nod32 and his system was back to business.
Also, i have seen McAfee and Norton Antivirus which take a lot of time in loading when your PC starts.The logo of the company would hang out there in the screen for a good amount of time.
I haven't used Kaspersky and AVG antivirus so i cannot comment on that.
Protection wise for PC's and laptop's,i think BitDefender,Kaspersky and Nod32 are almost the same but Nod32 according to me stands out in the crowd due to its flexibility of working nicely in various configurations.
Friends,if you have any valuable suggections on this topic,please comment.I will be waiting.
With Best Regards,
