I got this Trojan-Virtumondo virus on my main pc and my crappy avaast anti virus and norton sercurity wont delete it. So which anti-virus will delete it, and keep my computer safer than avaast does? All suggestions are appreciated.

Don't know if it will get rid of it or not, but I've been using AVG (free version) for some years now and it works really well. Maybe you could try to run CCleaner and Ad-Aware as well. I've used another program that deletes "undeletable" things too, but I can't remember what it's called.

Alex, how do you rate Avira AntiVir? it's usually ranked second after Kaspersky or even in front.

I think every program have it's own strong point, I'm using NOD32 at present, and until now it's been working very well (I mean that from when I install it, I'm protected from viruses and spyware very well)

I have used Nod32 for a few years now on my machine, doesn't hog any resources, updates regularly and I've never had any infections whatsoever, any threat I do have from going on certain websites has always been automatically quarentined. It's probably the best and most efficient around at the moment.

At work we use the free AVG on all our machines. I'd recommend either one of the two, or if you're not looking to buy one then AVG in particular as it's free and does the job just aswell as any good anti-virus program and updates regularly also.

I think there's no best anti-virus program, if you want to gain the best result you should combine two program, a program to kill spyware and the other to kill viruses, I think so

best free ones are avira and avast!, they are actually fairly good.

best paid ones are kaspersky, nod32 and norton. (and norton isn't that resource hog it used to be anymore.)

nod32 seems to have the best heuristics. the others have the best "on-demand" detection rates.

The free ones usually don't do anything against a really good virus. Very sophisticated Trojans usually are only beat by one of the premium pay anti-viruses.

Kaspersky, but no antivirus is good for strong viruses. The best suggestion is to use HijackThis. After scanning, send the log file to someone who knows what he's doing, and then you may get rid of that virus. (this only for viruses on registry)

Just buy Kaspersky, i've had it for three years and never got one thing. And i've tried Norton/McAfee/AVG and NOD32, and all of those got viruses/trojans.
