Dependable Free Anti-Virus Programs

[nleamons]

From my basic knoweledge with computers that I have earned through college, work, and research, here are my opinions on antivirus programs. The antivirus program that I use is Microsoft Security Essentials(MSE), which has been very successful in decting viruses and other types of malware. I would never use Norton it is will slow your computer down, but I have read that the newest version is not suppose to be quite as bad as the older version. I read that McAfee misses a lot. I have found AVG to slow down some computers. I tried, Avast for a while, but I disliked it, so I switched back to MSE. If one has the money to afford an antivirus, then I would go with Kaspersky, since it is often cheaper and not as resource hogging as other antivirus programs. I have not used Trend Mirco, but I have heard that some people had trouble with it. I noticed that some people got tricked into downloading what appears to be an antivirus program, but it is not.
