Avast + Malware Bytes OR MSE + Malware Bytes

Discussion in 'Networking and Security' started by CPTrader, Jan 28, 2013.

  1. Hello,

    There are so many differing opinions on the web, so I seek input form traders here.

    What is the preferred system protection combination:

    Avast + MalwareBytes

    OR

    MSE + MalwareBytes


    OR

    Avira + MalwareBytes


    Also I have heard that Avast is a resource hog" and that MSE is "slow". Anyone care to comment on this?

    Of these three which uses the less resources: Avast, Avira or MSE

    Thank you.

    Avg free edition

    Malware bytes free

    Super anti spyware free


    Download at a legit site

    I only use cnet.com
     

  3. Snapfiles is pretty clean too
    MSE & MalwareBytes does a pretty good job of getting rid of the bad stuff

    advanced system care free version or pay avg is a hog,problem described to me is the info goes thru the malware protection hands first before you get it so its a delay,explainer suggested advanced and i've used it since june '11,no problems
     
  5. this topic has been debated a lot before here but here's my 0.02 USD...

    firefox or chrome +adblock+noscript
    MSE
    cccleaner

    if you manage to mess up your computer using the above you deserve a virus.

    i use avast, comodo firewall (not avast's), malwarebytes, firefox + adblock + flashblock.

    safe sites, but i got one of those "windows xp 2011" equivalent viruses several years ago from either reuters or bloomberg when someone left a driveby injection there.

    Of the various "Adblock" addons here, is there one in particular you recommend. When I search I see only one one "Flashblock" but several "Adblock'; listings.
