Is Software Install Order Important?

[IIUKBlitzII]

What was up with that man on that video? Looks and sounds like a muppet

[mircir]

avast and avg

[TheRimshot09]

adcast home edition is free too

[BlindFist]

pause at 3:15

I recently used a recovery disk on my computer so it was fresh in sense in software, and later in the same DAY I had adware, and some phony antivirus trying to install itself.

Anti-virus before ANYTHING and EVERYTHING.

[foxmongrel]

wait a minute, so even after reformatting, you can still have viruses?

[neerdy5]

lol chris is a partner n00b. lol

[icguilty]

yes , very much

[optical10]

Here in the UK ISPs are including protection when you subscribe to their full broadband package. In the case of virgin it is called PC guard and it includes antivirus, anti-spyware, firewall, parental control, identity theft protection, pop-up blocker, privacy manager, could you get any better than that for free, I don't think so. it's the second thing I do after a fresh install, works for me :-) hello from over the pond.

[zokamoka1]

NOD32 FTW

[livvidd]

Yeah! Nod Rocks, Also try AVG It's Free!

[jlm7315]

hijack this!!!!!

[allu222]

avira antivir rulez!

[dakotoke]

Kaspersky for the win!

[7aji88]

I don't use any AV program, since it slows down my pc. I tried norton system works for a while but it crashed my machine soo bad.

[hacker042005]

i use` avast its free i like it

[FeelOfFriction]

me too

[neicedogs19]

I use AVG Free 7. Its the best antivius out there.

[tehmaster01]

nod32 3.0 is better

[ToxicatedLum]

my xboxlive connection is good buts its really slow most of the time only been happening for like a week now... any suggestions????????

[Danno57]

Zonealarm Security Suite (has been great so far)

Spybot Search and Destroy

lavasoft se personal.

Spyware blaster.

thats it. virus free computer for 3 years and counting..

[DavinTerrizzi]

Even though those are great problems, none of them are anti-virus.

[Danno57]

Check your facts first.

Zonealarm security suite (the one you gotta pay for HAS anti virus and anti spyware, otherwise why would i buy it?

"Great problems" don't you mean programmes? -_-

[johnaiton]

LOL chris @ 30s

[peter2000rock]

you need to go online to update

[scottguesty]

avast anti virus

clamwin anti virus

one not both

sygate personal firewall

zone alarm free personal firewall

one not both

spybot

[livvidd]

AVG, FTW!

[pcmatt360]

nod32 it is good

[tehmaster01]

ya the new ver 3 pwns all

[Colonelc81]

Avast is great. It also has a voice that says ''You computer is now updated'' and I can pretend i have friends...

[BetaFlux]

Hi Chris, I like what you do. I use Avast AV, it's free and works very well.

[drunkbear2000]

vista is the ultimate virus, no antivirus can help

[FeelOfFriction]

idiot. ur a virus

[Me208]

I use clamwin (woohoo! open source)

[BlkSerialKilla]

geepers creepers lol that mans face lol

[dimre01]

Windows Defender is working great for me.

[NexXxus86]

i use Avast, that isn't bad, or is it?

[DLSS]

nah it isnt bad :p

i prefere avast! over avg aswell...

most ppl on hak.5 use avg ,avast, or symantec

[leadgolem]

I use gnu/linux Fedora. With selinux set to enforcing, and an effective default firewall it is almost impossible for me to get a virus at all.

If i wanted to filter files for redistribution I'd probably use clamav.

[MrYapper07]

get a .

[emeek77]

get a mac.

[Muff208bty]

Before you connect to the internet or a network you should install AV an firewall programs. AVG an Zone alarm are both free an very efective.

My personal preference is for Zone alarm paid edition with its anti virus.

[emblempride]

AVG sucks ClamWin is better.... AVG overreacts to everything half the crap it calls a virus isnt even a virus or harmful what so ever.

[jrdonutmovies]

i use norton on my desktop and mcafee on my laptop

[ad5665]

i use mcafee it works great its got virus scan and firewall

i had nortan once it didnt let me go on the internet

[owen0334]

On OS X I use ClamXav.

On Vista I use AVG Free.

I wish AVG had a version for OS X =(

[willteddy09]

i use avg and norton securtiy online which came with my isp!

[josh198869]

you must have att like i do you get FREE norton o yeah lol

[willteddy09]

lol yeah i do!!! its great!!

[AtomicCreep]

i use kaspersky internet security 7.0 but it's getting slower with newer updates. now i'm trying nod32 security suite, eset smart security. it hasn't slowed my computer down at all and found a trojan in some pictures i had on a flash drive. both are expensive but i don't trust the free stuff. you get what you pay for...

[mikemoreno1375]

I just bought a sample version of McAfee and Im thinking about buying the full verision. Afeter trying so many free versions...I just decided to buy one...and It was worth it..

[gunfuego]

AVG sucks ass......

[xalint1]

I disagree on that AVG is one of the best freeware anti virus out there.Even better then some of the paid programs that has you renew every year.

[KivaWolf]

Must be a McAfee or Symantec fan or employee.. XD

[xalint1]

I remember seeing here recently that some hard drives from china had virus already on them..

[AtomicCreep]

seagate hard drives had a virus on them

[iClumsy]

Avast

[chimera15]

Some of the worst rootkits hide as device drivers, and are hard as hell to get rid if once installed. You can think you're completely free of the virus and it'll be set up to come back every month or two or in a year. Avg won't even detect most of them.

[cybling]

Mcafee owns all

[Swazi88]

i use AVG anti virus, AVG Anti Spyware and Zone Alarm as a Firewall.

[magicgurl7]

lol cute, scared ya hehe
