Antivirus Review

Website Review by: Snehashis Mukherjee     


It's been a prevailing confusion among the Internet users about which Antivirus Software to use inorder to get rid of the
threat of getting the PC infected by the existing Virus and Malwares. The existing players in the fieldare aplenty.AVG, McAfee, Panda and Kaspersky to name a few.When it comes to free download of antivirus software, McAfe stands the storm well. But The greatestdrawback that it imposes on the browsing experience is that it exploits the maximum bandwidth while downloading its Virus Definition Updates and consequently slows down the browsing speed during the process.Whereas, even being a moderate player in the segment, AVG (Especially after launching its 7.5 Beta)finds a much better acceptability among the browsing community.It consumes less time and bandwidth for updation of its virus database and sports a much simpler and uncluttered userInterface enabling easy operation and control........By S Mukherjee......(The author is an Internet and software enthusiast and can be reached at passmecloser@yahoo.com)
