Today for my first blog post,we will be examining the 5 most acclaimed and popular anti-viruses, and we are going to group them based on their accessibility and usability(scanning speed,features,etc)

Here is a quick look at the anti-viruses we will be examining:

They will be running on an average processor, intel core 2 dou e6600 2,4ghz

.Kaspersky 2009
.Eset NOD 32
.Symantec antivirus
.Avast! pro antivirus
.Grisoft AVG 8.0.93

1.Scanning speed

The Scanning speed of an Anti-virus is perhaps the most important aspect of the anti-virus.Consumers seek out the fastest and least tedious mean to scan their computer and now we are going to unveil the best

1.Eset NOD 32-Revolutionary-Scanned 60,000 objects(40gb) in 6 minutes and 48 seconds,or 408 seconds.Average speed:98 mb/s, 100%

2.Symantec antivirus-Excellent-Scanned 60,000 objects(40gb) in 13 minutes and 40 seconds,or 820 seconds.Average speed:48.7 mb/s, 49.7% speed of NOD 32

2.Features and Accessibility

The Features and the Accessibility of the anti-virus will pretty much be the first things you get a taste of, after you purchase the anti-virus,and if they fall below your expectations,I have no doubt that you’ll demand a refund.

1.Kaspersky 2009-Perfect-Very easy to use, the interface is excellent,and it has many options and features.

2.Eset NOD 32-Excellent-Easy to use as Kaspersky, interface is outstanding ,not as many options and features as Kaspersky(No Schedule Scanner?)

4.Symantec antivirus-Average-Outdated interface, easy to use after getting used to, lots of options and features

5.Avast! pro-Poor-Interface is too stylish, hard to use and understand, Moderate amount of options and features.

More Ram Usage will reduce your computer speed!
