Avast antivirus is quite responsive, fast. It auto updates its antivirus signatures. Apart from the standard in-memory scanner, it has modules to take care of p2p applications, IM’s, network access etc. Avast is very good. Avast antivirus is quite responsive, fast.

For eg, any machine thats infected and trying to do a DOM exploit attack etc... Spywares, adwares etc are take care by the standard shield. Sripathi:. AVG is also supposed to be good. I had downloaded it, but never tried installing it. Harsh : It has a network shield which takes care of network attacks.
