 good antivirus software?

Where can I find some good antivirus software to put on my comp. I had a copy of AVG but I had to reformat and reinstall again and the CD key for it wouldn't work anymore. Can anyone direct me to a torrent of a good program or even the link to a free one that actually works well? Thanks...

Download Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition from TPB.
No serial, no bullshit. Quick install, haven't had a problem in over 4 years on all my windows computers.

AVG free version expires after 30 days. I had a CD key for it that had me good til 2018 but I lost it when I had to format. I guess I could just reinstall it every 29 days...

Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition is good but only issue with this is that is a very big application and take crazy CPU juice if you are not running anything over a dual core during the scan prosses. I would suggest to have it run at night if you do install it. Also Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition does not provide real time scanning. So you may get infected and you will only find out after you have been infected.
If you have no idea how anti virus work i would suggest you to stick with AVG since its a user friendly client and interface. Probably much easier for you to get around than Symantec.

You are doing it wrong sir. Download the one link i gave you. You dont have to re-install anything. I have the same AVG running at home for over 14 month now.

When you go to install it asks you if you want to free version of the "comprehensive protection version" that expires in 30 days. I had the good version but I don't have a working key for it anymore. Somehow I feel like if they give you that option and you take the free one it's still gonna be easy to get fucked for the more advanced viruses.

You don't have to trust the two of us that say that the free version works just fine.
But I'm pretty sure Hydro is computer literate (I think I remember his job involving computers just can't remember because I don't memorize everyone's job).
And I'm pretty computer literate, enough where I've never had a computer become fucked by viruses or spyware.

Absolutely 100% wrong.
In fact flat out lie. Are you sure you're talking about this particular program:
Take note, this is the anti virus the U.S. Government uses to protect all it's computers, at least inside diplomatic consulates. There must be some value to it no?
It is not a large file, it DOES have real time scanning, it does not take up a lot of juice (you should have at least 512 if your doing multi tasking of any kind,) no serial, no bullshit additional software and it's simple looking.
Just click, install -> boom. No problems ever. Guarenteed.
DO NOT LET HYDRO REMOTELY CONNECT TO YOUR COMPUTER. HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT.

If your comprhension of a good anti virus system is because it as no serial key required and a quick install. you might wanna go back and learn a bit more on how it work .. I have been working in the computer engineering for over 4 year so i have a rough idea of what i am talking about.
and i am talking about dual ciore. you are bringing 512 mb. what the fuck does it have to do with anything im asking..........
your processor and your inboard memory are 2 different thing. read a bit more about computer before trying to make your self look O almighty .
once again you sir are a fail
and saying to people dont let me remote. make you look liek a joke because i fixed many computer on this board and no one ever complainned.

Uhh why are people assuming I'm completely computer illiterate lol. I was just trying to see if there was a better product than AVG that didn't require a key or with a torrent link that had a key. I installed AVG again and it works fine.

Quote:
Real-time protection, on-access scanning, background guard, resident shield, autoprotect, and other synonyms refer to the automatic protection provided by most antivirus, antispyware, and other antimalware programs, which is arguably their most important feature. This monitors computer systems for suspicious activity such as computer viruses, spyware, adware, and other malicious objects in 'real-time', in other words while data is coming into the computer (for example when inserting a CD, opening an email, or browsing the web) or when a file already on the computer is opened or executed, in other words loaded into the computer's active memory.[1] This means all data in files already on the computer is analysed each time that the user attempts to access the files. This can prevent infection by not yet activated malware that entered the computer unrecognised before the antivirus received an update. Real-time protection and its synonyms are used in contrast to the expression "on-demand scan" or similar expressions that mean a user-activated scan of part or all of a computer.

That is probably gon na get you a ban for a few days . so good work sir !
now to make thign clear for your little brain that seem to have a hard time understanding.
CPU and Memory are two different thing. Memory will no dictect how many software and application you are caoable to run at once ./ CPU WILL. so it dont matter if you have 800 gig or 512 mb in your freakin PC because4 that no what we are talking about here. ( so go read some more on wiki)
Now if i want to run REAL - TIME SCANNING it dont matter if my PC as less than a gig or 8 million gig. I need a Good CPU in order to have Real time scannign running as it will lag my other application. You can have a dual core with 512 mb of memory and run real time scanning jsut fine and use other application. YOU CANNOT RUN REAL TIME SCANNING WITH 1 core and 8 gig and have other application running as well. it will be sluggish and hard to work with .
anyway im not going to conduct a course on how to use a PC. you would fail it anyway .
ill see u in a week after ur ban as been removed 
take care poor body

You couldn't run Symantec on there. Should have at least windows 2000. That's a stretch though.

I've used AVG for the last 3 years and Norton for probably 10 years before that.
I caught a lot more viruses using Norton but I was also younger and didn't understand what was bad about internet explorer or napster/limewire.
I've never had problems with AVG but to be honest I don't think I ever get viruses at all anymore. I think it's been over a year since I've had one.
All you need is a decent browser, spyware protection, and the common sense not to go to sketchy places on the internet.

I use SpyBot Search & Destroy, does what I need it to.
On a side note I have a excellent defragmenter program called Ashampoo Magical Defrag.. It automatically defragments your computer all the time but it keeps itself low on the list of priorities. So if you're running a big game or something it just pauses until you're done.
The version out there now you have to pay for but there is an earlier version that's free. I love it.
edit: stop. grammer time.
