I use a lot of antiviruses, but the one that I find is alright would be Advanced System Care 6 + IObit Malware Fighter.

You're joking right? That shit aint even certified and I wouldn't even be surprised if it detected less than Microsoft Security Essentials. Those are the same bastards who stole Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware's database a couple of years back so I wouldn't trust them.

Go on YouTube and watch live tests with it, you can see that it basically fails because it can't detect anything.

im still with Norton for most this is a hate shows for their own personal reason but I never had any problem so far

Norton sinc e8 years

So you're telling me that their WS.Reputation system is amazing? It is bad for small companies, programmers/developers and even hack coders because they have to either waste their time to submit their product or the person who downloads the file has to waste their time to add an exclusion.

I just use Malewarebyts. All them other programs make my shit lagg.

malwarebytes is the best

Let's just make it clear that Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is not an anti-virus, even with it's protection module. It's designed to work along-side an existing anti-virus. They make this clear on their website:
Does Malwarebytes Anti-Malware replace antivirus software? : Malwarebytes Support

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is not meant to be a replacement for antivirus software. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is a complementary but essential program which detects and removes zero-day malware and "Malware in the Wild". This includes malicious programs and files, such as virus droppers, worms, trojans, rootkits, dialers, spyware, and rogue applications that many antivirus programs do not detect or cannot fully remove. That being said, there are many infections that Malwarebytes Anti-Malware does not detect or remove which any antivirus software will, such as file infectors. It is important to note that Malwarebytes Anti-Malware works well and should run alongside antivirus software without conflicts. In some rare instances, exclusions may need to be set for your specific antivirus product to achieve the best possible system performance.

Installed Bitdefender trial.
Seems awesome.
Now let's crack it.

Just a big warning, Bitdefender has an auto-pilot feature on by default which deletes detected threats silently without notifying the user. Also, it's not friendly with hacks and packers. I had heaps of issues approving files with Bitdefender. It is also troublesome to add exclusions too which is why I scrapped it and bought Kaspersky Internet Security for $15. It works great and I don't get false positives.

If you want some relatively up-to-date information about detection rates of anti-virus software:





The notable AV vendors are: Bitdefender, Kaspersky, Trend Micro and F-Secure. If you're looking for a good free-antivirus, I recommend Avast. AVG depends too much on user-interaction and AVIRA is known to have lots of false positives.

ESET Smart Security 6

EDIT:

Kaspersky seems interesting

[FMDSatan]

Avast or deepfreeze

I haven't used an anti-virus in over 2 years.

All an anti-virus does is bother me. You don't even need one if you are smart on how you browse the internet and keep your system up to date, I find.

Hell, what am I talking about. I am using Windows 7 RTM without a single update.

You don't need one if you're smart enough.

Microsoft Security Essentials. ^_^

I'm using AVG internet security because I found a key that gives it to me until 2018
So far it's been very reliable.
