I installed Bitdefender Windows 8 Security now and guess what, while scanning it detected 3 files as malicious, i could select what action to take on 2 of the files, but the third file that was a .dll file for Soundblaster speaker software was deleted without asking me/allowing me to select what action to take. And now i must re install the software because it will not start :/ Edit: Found the option to make it quarantine by default instead of deleting but seems that it did not help so much, it did quarantine the file but when i clicked restore, it restored the file and then quarantined it again. Also adding the file/folder to exclusion did not help, because it kept detecting it. Only thing that worked was to add exception for dll extension. But i gotta admit that their forum is good, i reported the FP and i got a fast reply that they would take look at it and if the file is indeed clean, the detection will be removed ASAP. for that.
I can say about free antiviruses. Avast! Free Antivirus. I've lived long enough with this anti-virus solution, but did not like the large number of false responses. AVG Antivirus Free. Convenient interface, I can not say nothing bad about it, no huge memory. Comodo Antivirus. Comodo has the functionality of paid antivirus programs - it detects and removes all known viruses, Trojans, Internet worms from your computer, with available free of charge. Microsoft Security Essentials. Complete protection against malware. Easy free download. Automatic update. Ease of Use. BUT. crash when trying to cure the virus in the archive. AVZ. Low reliability. Panda Cloud Antivirus. Great usability, excellent reliability. Good luck!
I tried using Norton, Eset Nod32 and Avg. I haven't use Norton again since it affects the performance of my computer when it do full computer scan. I like ESET NOD32 and AVG for its works great. As of now I use AVG since you can't use two antivirus at the same time.
Hello all, I was wondering if there is an antivirus out there that is just a scanner and cleaner, no system files, nothing like that. Just a plan scan and clean? I have found scanners that are like this but none clean or I have found scanners and cleaners but they all install system files. Please let me know of any. Thanks, Lunar21

Ive had Comodo lock up a HDD completely before. I am a avast! and Malwarebytes user myself but on the PC I sell I install either Avast or AVG. I am giving Bitdefender a shot on this next load. Just gotta get some Offline installation Files.
Been using Comodo for 10 years , free CIS , av included , updates itself every 3/4 days , had no lockups ,no worms, viruses. so what it gives too many popups , just tell it that it's a safe app. why pay money for paid firwaLL/AV , they all give same problems.
