(Question) Best Secondary Use Anti-Viruses? - Resistance - 10-09-2010

Hello everybody... I have a question. Are there any Anti-Viruses that are truly trusted like Mbam and Avast! that can run along with a primary anti-virus such as McAfee/AVG...? Please tell me! Big Grin

I wouldn't have Avast! running with McAfee or AVG. They're all AntiViruses.

Now, MalwareBytes is a good one, another good one would be Threatfire.

Zurmi

I use AVG, it is awesome and has protected me many times, also has a function to scan files you want.

Malwarebytes ftw!

Yeah MBAM is the best, anything similar to MBAM?

This really isnt a anti virus, but Comodo Firewall works pretty well, If its the first time opening a file or looks like a weird file, It will sandbox it for you. which i think is pretty useful. And has a lot of other cool features.

First: Eset nod32
