Don't bother with panda, its useless. It misses about 30-40% of malicious files that come through

Avast is a very good antivirus program, imo one of the best.  And it's free legally too, that's always a plus.  It's light on resources too.

AVG and Avast are fantastic free products and wil handle up to 90% of stuff out there (Avast being slightly better) but if you want the best protection bar none go for either Kaspersky or bitDefender

I used to have bitdefender but it "ran-out".
No keygen or crack worked after that.
I DL'd several newer versions but no luck.

I use AVG now.

Im using AVG right now, it seems works fine, no problem with win98 so far. Anyway ill try to get a legal copy of Kapersky or bitdefender as soon as i can.
Thank you all guys!
