Top Five (5) Antivirus Software For Windows

It is recommended that all computers and laptops which have access to the Internet have some form of security protection installed, anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-phishing, and firewall. Viruses can also be easily spread by sharing of USB devices even though they are not connected to the Internet, so all computers and laptops should have some form of protection. Here is a list of the Top Five Antivirus Software for your PC.

1. Avira Antivirus Pro 2018

The latest offering from Avira is as solid and dependable as previous offerings in terms of its malware engine. It scores well independent tests, as will be seen, but potential users are will struggle to justify spending the money for the Pro version rather than the free version which has taken the act of teasing users to a new level. It is doubtful if the user who paid for the Pro version will feel as if it is money well spent. With prices ranging from $38 for one license for a year and $151 for five computers for the same period of time.

Installation of both the free and the pro version is simple and hassle-free. Once installed though, the user is bombarded with a predominantly white interface packed with features. This can be intimidating to first-time users of the program or users just wanting to scan their computer. Other companies have spent a lot of time and effort to simplify the interface as much as possible, it feels like Avira has gone the other direction by adding more.

2. Norton Security

Norton antivirus program is well-known for being one of the easiest antivirus softwares to navigate. Norton security’s user-friendly interface displays easily identifiable icons that represent each of the program’s features. For example, with just a couple of clicks, you can scan your computer for viruses, optimize your system for better performance or create a full backup of your important files. In addition, the program’s real-time scanning feature blocks most threats as they appear. Furthermore, there are versions of the program that can protect multiple devices, such as the premium version.

3. BitDefender

BitDefender started life as an unimpressive antivirus, but over time, it has become one of best antivirus software available. Its simple interface and good protection make it a smash hit with internet users. It offers all you could ever wanted in an antivirus: protection, ease of use and it doesn’t need a NASA computer to run. Some of the new 2018 features are: email and net scan (it permanently scans your computer and alerts you if anything is wrong), it scans instant messenger programs, so you won’t be affected by boots and viruses sent by IM. If you are undecided, this antivirus is a great idea.

4. VIPRE Antivirus

Just because it’s not as well-known as some of the aforementioned antivirus softwares doesn’t mean VIPRE Antivirus lacks the ability to be a pro-active protector against malware. The 2017 edition boasts rapid scan times and minimal drag on your computer while operating, and includes an updated interface designed for optimal usability.

In addition to real time protection against browser and email-based threats, the program also includes a Social Watch Scan that checks out the validity of links that come through via Facebook and greatly reduces your chances of clicking links that could open up your computer to serious damage. Removable device scanning also keeps your USB flash drives protected. It adds an Erase Files option to your Windows Explorer menu that you can use to easily and permanently delete files.
