| I switched to MSE since I cannot be bothered to pay for an AV or borrow it. I never get a virus anyway, and most things can be removed by Malwarebytes.

Computer 1:
Eset Smart Security
1) It's Fast
2) I can get keys with a click of a button
3) It's free
4) Doesn't use too much system resources
5) Tough Protection
Computer 2:
Avast Free Edition
1) Fast also
2) Lightweight
3) Nice GUI (lol)
4) Also good protection, but not as good as ESET

None; don't click every link you see and you'll be fine.

| MSE is actually a pretty good AV, although that's all it does, no Firewall or anything. I use Comodo because its a whole suit with a Sandbox, Firewall, and good Threat Detection. And it doesn't use to much RAM. And it's free. Norton is the worst AV ever created. A lot of my windows files have been edited for customization, fucking Norton shut down explorer.exe and then it deleted it. Thank god i had a back up.

This is hard to accept, and it shocked me. Windows firewall actually works. Its decent. It blocks things that it doesn't understand and it prompts me. Thats all I even ask for in a firewall. Microsoft actually did it well.

I never said an AV had to have one, it's just a nice addition when comparing AVs, especially free ones.
