« on: January 13, 2012, 11:48:47 AM »

See my signature...

i would not install avast without file shield[U dont know about USB malware i suppose ::) and avast is awesome in detecting it without filesystem shield u wont be protected against it] and web shield is another important component for web protection against exploits and ... i recommend have avast installed with all shields irrespective of what u use...Apart from that u say about panda could AV that itself is a AV...two AVs conflicts u know ;D ...kingsoft pc doctor=stay away from it!Never used it myself i dont recommend this....Comodo firewall with Defence+ is a excellent combo with avast! pair it up with Malwarebytes pro..

so:
Avast! free[all shields installed]+comodo firewall with defence+ +mbam pro[optional]+fully up to date windows =no malware!


P.S. Mbam pro is optional for me as Comodo D+ is a solid warrior against malware

If u want any help with Defence+ or something else in comodo Feel free to PM me....

Well, if you think so, use it then.
Good luck. ;)

Avast + Comodo Firewall + Malwarebytes is a good combo :)


You can add WinPatrol, HitmanPro, SUPERAntiSpyware and Spyware Blaster if you want so :)

Hitman pro can seriously screw up a computer...spyware blaster has become a old story and is no more considered to be effective...MBAM is best.

OK...as u wish if this AV is all over malaysia then go ahed and try it but i can bet it will not be as effective as avast!.

Here,in India we have NPAV[net protector AV] their own site has a malicious link that is blocked by avast!...Hmm..and i receive infected computers everyday that have NPAV... ::)

Do u mean NPAV?

For any one else who might want to look at Kingsoft PC Doctor,
I suggest you check out the following first.
http://malwaretips.com/Thread-Kingsoft-PC-Doctor-3-0-Tested

I enjoy seeing a "software review" done by someone who was asked by the Company
to do the review show off just how bad this products ability to protect you
really is.
