Hi,

I don't think in really there is any anti virus that is 100 percentage pure and the best of all, what we need to do is to take care of our digital devices that they don't get infected by the viruses. Mostly the USB devices are affected by the virus so avoid exchanging such devices with the other people.

Re: Best Antivirus To Use by ogbori(m): 6:44am On Apr 11, 2011
Tanks olumide . . . but . . what antivrus would that be?
I have tried, Kerpersky,Eset Nod32 , panda . . . ,
from what I read online, formatng the drve might not completely take it out of your drive most especially if you use Window XP
Re: Best Antivirus To Use by 1Emmy: 3:03pm On Apr 11, 2011
My Dear try and install avast anti virus 6, even the free version is superb, if you succeed, then restart your PC you will be surprise that the virus will be deleted automatically. However if it persist, scan and delete it manually.

But, avast does not install on some infected system, if that is the case then install AVG, use it first to attack the virus. Actually it won't remove all the viruses but it will disable many of them giving you chance to install Avast. Remove the AVG later and install avast.
Surely Avast remains the BEST. 

After that download and install this software RecoverMyFiles. It will help you to recover all the files and it will give you option to save them where ever you like.
Goodluck.

Re: Best Antivirus To Use by brightk(m): 6:30pm On Apr 13, 2011
well i had that problem of all my folders disappearing when i gave someone my flash drive and had some crucial files in there. i could recall i did some tricks with nod 32 the very old version but i cant remember.

solution 1
open d drive and then right click inside the same drive and select properties , if u see that the hidden attribute is locked move on to solution 2. but if not then uncheck the folder and select for current folder and subfolder and click ok.

solutin 2
download winrar and install it. go the drive ur files are located, right click then select new and then select a new winrar archive/zip archive. it was place an archive of 1kb on the drive. open it and use to navigate, u will see all ur files on the drive.

just copy the address from the address bar of the winrar soft and paste it into ur windows address bar. u can copy all ur files using this method.

For Windoze systems (Microsoft Windows 7 / Vista / XP / Me / 2000 / 98 and Windows Server 2008 and 2003). Clamwin has one of the smallest installation footprints, is free, highly optimized, and therefore what I would recommend.

I have used this application for several years without any problems, just in case anyone's wondering.

Avira antivirus seem to be working well for me.
Re: Best Antivirus To Use by lacastre: 4:44pm On May 06, 2011
There are two things that causes a system to slow in performing an action either when on net or off.
they are;
1. error on operating system (OS)
2. spyware and viruses
so it is possible to have anti virus and yet your system may be slow.to get these two out of your system and make it a clean and fast one.call 07037905533
Re: Best Antivirus To Use by HonorMe: 7:08pm On May 06, 2011
My vote goes to Avira, it's still the best free antivirus program, and you get instant updates. My experience is that they get your antivirus updated once a threat comes out. They're quick and efficient. We actually had an attack in the office, and all those using Avira were spared.
Re: Best Antivirus To Use by alicaaa: 1:12pm On May 08, 2011
