Hi, I have virus/malware problems that BitDefender does not seem able to deal with. Their support staff keeps asking for more information, but seems at a loss.

You guys once mentioned a free anti-virus program that was very effective. Could you repeat that information for me?

Thanksavast is goodavira free is goodMake sure you uninstall the old one first before you install the new one. It is never good to have more than one antvirus on your computer.

Avast: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html (make sure you register for the free code)

or

AVG: http://download.cnet.com/AVG-Anti-Virus-Free-Edition/3000-2239_4-10320142.html?part=dl-10044820&subj=dl&tag=button&cdlPid=11014801If you're having malware/virus issues it would be best to have your computer cleaned first. Go to the first thread in this forum and do what it SAYS and post the logs here.AVG is very good and very popular, I have been using computers since 2001 and I have not had one virus yet I'm quite proud. xQuote from: crog13 on December 01, 2009, 09:08:24 AM

avg takes up a lot of room and slows the pc down

Okay, let's not turn this into a "best anti virus" thread - there are enough of those. The OP asked for a good, free AV. The first two responses answered his question perfectly. Not sure why there was any need for anything after that
