👍

 

[halfracedrift]

Norton//Hardware. I've got the dual firewall going!
Norton '03 systemworks.

 

[Slick6]

Zone Alarm
AVG Free and Avast

 

[Viper_Maniac]

Zonealarm 4.5.something
Norton Antivirus 2003 Pro

 

[GilesGuthrie]

I don't need a firewall: I have a router with port-forwarding disabled.
I use Norton Antivirus.

 

[Flerbizky]

FW: Sonicwall TZ170 !... Kick ass little Firewall with configurable what nots...
AV: None - Antivirus is for pantsies - If I did want an antivirus running, it'd be NOD32. Think there's a reason MicroShaft has like 50000 licenses....

Note - The reason I don't use AV software is : all my Mail accounts are thoroughly checked (with 2 diff. scanner as a minimum) before I actually get the mail, and I'm fairly confident in my own judgment (both with regards to pages to visit, and email to open - although, I haven't had an infected email through in the last 2.5 years...)

 

[BMW POWER]

McAfee

[sUn]

Screw your format.

Burn!

 

[eddieturner2002]

McAfee Security Center that provides Anti-Virus protection, Firewall and Pop-Up and Spam blockers. It came free with my new PC. Oh well.

Also Spybot Search and Destroy. Good program, free too. :tup:

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Zonealarm 4.5 Pro
Norton AntiVirus 2003 Pro Edition

 

[toyomatt84]

Firewall: ZoneAlarm Pro
Anti-Virus: AVG

 

[Thio]

TrendMicro PC-Cillin for both Firewall and Antivirus (-_-)....

Worst Ever.

It looks like Norton's a good program. Is it so?

 

[sUn]

I used to use TrendMicro PC-Cillin not worth it, AVG pwns it. But, AVG get's pwned by Symentac.

 

[emad]

FW: BlackIce Defender - low resource usage but I'm starting to hate it because it doesn't always let certain apps work properly
AV: Norton Antivirus Corporate Edition. Almost no resource usage, very powerful scanning functionality, and it doesn't kill system performance

 

[Shannon]

Firewall: Hardware.
Antivirus: F-Prot Antivirus, small and secure. 👍 The residential scanner (the thing that scans everything in the background 24/7) is only using just over 1mb of ram, and with the Scheduler enabled (automatic updates and such) it's only using about 3mb in total. Not to mention it has about a 98% detection rate and some pretty decent scan rates (faster then Norton by far). I don't know why all these people go for Norton... it's the biggest resource hog ever with the slowest scan rates I've ever seen.

 

[Klostrophobic]

I believe the main reason is that they aren't as cool as you.

That's just my guess, though.

 

[Race Idiot]

Lemme see.

Router with hardware nat firewall and no Antivirus whatsoever.

 

[911_Carrera]

I've got some rubbish PC-cillin on this Win 98 PC and on the other PC I've got ZoneAlarm Firewall and it's running Symantec Anti-Virus Corporate Edition.

 

[CDailey]

ZoneAlarm and AVG since my Norton subscription ran out.

 

[Burnout]

Hardware firewall / ZA Pro
Symantec CE 8

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Norton only takes 10mb

You know what they say the thicker the protection the longer you last.

umm.....yeah

 

[sUn]

Bigger doesn't always mean better.

But it's got the highest detection rate, and its auto-update engine is much more reliable than its chief rivals.

If it's only using 1MB RAM, where are the signatures held? On disk?
