[QUOTE="Nico@FMA, post: 173690, member: 8154"] Actually littlebits and me have exactly the same view, and everything I said is spot on and everything he said is spot on. Now I am not going to explain again the same thing as I did explain before, but both free and paid will keep you save and protect you and both are doing a comparable job in doing so. But when it comes to highly advanced malware and very deep infections (I am talking industry money wise where millions of dollars in terms of data loss is at stake) there a paid antivirus specially major brands like Sophos and Symantec, Kaspersky offer onsite and very dedicated and very sophisticated technical expertise to undo the damage and to control data loss and guarantee continuity and there is one example where free antivirus just cannot keep up. But also the tools available within paid software is just way more sophisticated and very well rounded. So judging paid AV just by if it can protect you more is not accurate you really have to judge it across its whole package and the entire spectrum of the tools they make available for you. But for you as a home user protection A versus protection B is not going to make much difference. [/QUOTE]
