What are some positives about?

What antivirus is best? and has the least amount of false positives?

  • So i have had mcafee ever since i can remember, but i got tired of all the false positives and the fact that i have to get it again every 2 years. so is there an antivirus that you don't have to renew every once in a while that doesn't give false positives? i would prefer one that works and if it is free then that's even better. i know about avast and i know about avg but i was wondering if there are any more. BTW i have never tried avg but im told it has a lot of false positives and i know of norton and eset and kaspersky but i want you to tell me what u use and how it works for you. i am good with computers so if its difficult to install i cna still do it.

    You can use Microsoft Security Essentials. Download it, install it and forget it (viruses).

Microsoft Security Essentials is freeware and it outperforms many of the paid Antivirus software. It also blocks/prevents Malware from being installed on your computer.

You don't get anything for nothing, , it's a scam do not answer do not give personal information.The following sites give more information http://www.snopes.com/ http://www.scambusters.org/ please answer nothing that you are doubtful about.Good Luck and be careful

currently, as these thing do change over time, microsoft security essentials, avira anti-virus, and avast anti-virus i believe to be the top three products. dont pay for an antivirus. anything you get from one of the free ones is just as good. mcafee used to be one of the better AV's a few years back, but with IT being the ever-changing field that it is, it is now a tad bit outdated in my opinion to be one of the best.
