What Is Your Anti Virus Program ?

AntiVir Personal EditionWhat Is Your Anti Virus Program ? or What Is The Best Anti Virus Program ?
I’ve been asking this many times, most of people who asked this found that although they already installed Anti Virus program, they still got infected :-)

They feel secure from virus when they bought and install anti virus program, unfortunately this is not true. There is no guarantee that your computer will safe from virus although you bought the most sophisticated anti virus program. They only minimize, not eliminating the risk ;-)

Some measures you want to consider when minimizing risk of getting infected by virus :

  • Updating anti virus solely is not enough, you also upgrade your Operating System with the latest patch or Service pack ( if using Microsoft product).
  • You must avoid browsing or download to porn/malicious sites in the internet, mostly the virus or spyware come from them.
    Don’t open/double click any email attachment unless you’re sure it is safe.
  • Update your anti virus frequently.

    • For personal use I like Avira AntiVir Personal Edition Classic (I’ve been using it for years).
    When I installed other Anti Virus Program I feel my computer performance degraded much, but not with this product.
    If you need manually update the virus definition file, click this and download the file.
