Hi guys, this morning my AntiVir updated but now my computer is really slow. Does anyone else have any problems with AntiVir at the moment aswell?
The comp just seems to be bugged up.  :(

BTW, this is on my workcomputer.

Here's what's wrong:
-Computer: really slow;
-The configuration menu really really slow and it keeps searching, flashlight moving but it seems it cannot find anything;

Suggestions are welcome  :unsure:

Can you stop anti-vir running (close it from task manager or something) to see if that frees up the PC?

I've deleted the whole program and it seems to run as usual again.

Does anyone know of another good free antivirusprogram?

Just to throw a spanner in the works, I've found grisoft to be a load of junk.

OK, it's free and better than nothing, but it doesn't really catch everything out there. I had the bosses grandson's computer in the office the other week with him complaining that it was slow and doing strange things. It had an upto date grisoft AVG on there.

Anyway, it had a rather nasty case of viral infection that took a few hours to sort. As he wasn't keen on me formatting I had to do it the old fashioned way. Anyway, I stuck nod32 on there (//www.nod32.com) as it is my current anti virus of choice and it found a couple of nasties that AVG missed.

Just my experience, but I no longer recommend any free anti-virus programs as I've seen that they don't offer the protection they claim.

Why do manufacturers make anti virus for servers so bleeding expensive :ranting:

Anyone know of a good value for money AV prog for W2k3? For good value read cheap or free with a reasonable chance of finding the virus.
