I got 114 virusses according to Antivir.
Unistalled it, installed norton (with crack to see if antivir really works).
And it says the same.

But antivirs really sux, and i gained them while i had it.
And i dont want a cracked antivirus.
So wich one is the best to get?

I'm using AVG and I don't have any viruses.

Personally I loathe Norton. It is literally a virus.
1: It hurts your PCs performance
2: You can't remove it without specialized software. Software that you have to find for yourself since Norton isn't sharing.

You know what i hate more then norton being a virus itself.
A antivirus that welcomes your virusus and disables your pc wich costed you a fortune.

So i prefer norton to be a pain in the ass.
Then a virus that is disabling you to:
Shut off your pc
Crashing explorer.exe every minut.
To save picture's or other file changes.
Install an antivirus.
Update windows.
Change settings to windows (i hope this will not let me have a hard time reinstalling windows)

And many more.
Cant even open some web pages.

Ah, you mean Norton Antivirus. Since it's the most popular antivirus program out there (It's bundled with everything) a majority of viruses are programmed specifically to circumvent it.

AVG is the way to go.

I've heard Avira is pretty good too.
