Yeah, I think ESET Nod32 is very good, I currently use that.

Im currently using McAfee after recent improvements in the products detection rate. Recent reviews conclude that McAfee's detection rate has risen dramatically.

I would disagree.

MBAM and Avast aren't up there? Kaspersky is th only one up there that actually seems good.

He said he is not finished, he pressed 'post thread' instead of 'preview thread', relax.

MalwareBytes is an anti-malware product, not anti-virus. This thread is only listing anti-virus products. Smile And, the thread is not currently finished.

I didn't see that. And I am relaxed, was posting my opinion.

Incorrect, in a way. It's an anti-virus if you activate it.

Nice I am downloading one now. My only criticism would be the italic red against a Grey background, hard to read Smile

It is classed as an Anti-Malware product, since this is the area in which it specializes. You have made a fair point, but even once MBAM is activated it is probably still focusing on real-time malware detection. Smile

And MBAM's real-time protection is pretty poor by todays anti-virus standards.

Not at all. It's updated daily with nice runtime protection.
