| Hello again Vista forums.. once again I have a question,
Whats the Best Anti-virus or whats the best Security Suite for Vista.. i actually have 32bit.. not 64, but since I'm already a member here please help anyways.. so I got 32bit.. ok. Should i get an antivirus and leave it at that.. or should I get a Security Suite.???
I had norton when I got my PC new and I totally didn't like it.. not at all. it was slow, sluggish. I just wasn't a fan.. so I got a trial of Kaspersky.. honestly I liked Kaspersky.. it seemed to work well, very fast, very user freindly, let me customize any and all scans and updates.. everything. I liked it.. but after a few months my internet stopped working.. after over a week of nothing fixing it someone here in vistax64 told me Kaspersky has been causing problems with Vista.. so I uninstalled and There you have it. My Internet works..
so my problem now is I need a security suite or an antivirus and I want everyones opinion on whats best. what should I use, a suite or just a antivirus.. money and price doesn't matter
I'm concidering giving Kaspersky another shot because it was so nice, but don't want to have problems again. Other than that I've been told to totally go with NOD32.. if anyone could please give me there thoughts ASAP i would appreciate it.. Thanks

Cory:
Personally, I use a combination of software for protection.
My main program is Live OneCare by Microsoft. It combines virus and evilware protection into one package, plus maintenance utilities. Your annual subscription includes up to 3 PC's.
You can download an evaluation version here:
Windows Live OneCare - Home
AVG anti-virus is also recommended. Download that one here:
AVG Free Advisor - Free antivirus and anti-spyware downloads
For spyware and other evilware I use two types. Spyware Doctor and Spy Bot Search & Destory. You can get them here:
Spyware Doctor - Best Spyware Removal. Free Trial Download. The home of Spybot-S&D!
I also use a few other maintenance utilities to keep things running smooth. Check them out as well:
Eusing Free Registry Cleaner: Safely scan and repair registry problems - Spyware FREE. Auslogics - Download Auslogics Registry Defrag Auslogics - Download Auslogics Disk Defrag
I hope this helps.
