Hey guys, I got my new pc today and was wondering what antivirus software I should get on it. I'm running AVG on my laptop, but I'm curious what else is out there..
Any Suggestions? Thanks

avg gives too many false positives

Windows security center. Does the same as the ones you pay for... and doesnt slow down your computer!
the harsh fact still remains, PCs run off viruses.
Its a business

i need to get a mac based one but on my old PC i had nod32 and that worked amazingly well. picked up things all the big names failed to and wasn't a resource hog like most of them

get rid of AVG worst one ever.
i use Avira as an active anti virus (i don't scan with this one) and malware to scan my computer

Avira, Avast for games mode. Both are quite good. Nod32 as well but not free.

Avast has been doing really well for me. Switched to it from McAfee which you have to pay for and its better. You can download it for free from the Avast website.

AVG + Malwarebytes + common sense = 0 virus in 4 years. 1 case of malware because I never scanned a zip I got sent.
