My Favorite Antivirus Software Programs For 2015
Once again as we get closer to 2015 customers are asking what is the best antivirus program out there today for your computer. The other question is what is the best antivirus program. They also ask which antivirus program will protect my computer from all infections. Unfortunately no virus software will protect your computer 100% . The virus writing people are very smart and very sneaky. They will find all the security issues and loopholes to ruin your day and get into your computer. Today we are seeing some really bad nasty computer viruses that are just wreaking havoc on customers computers resulting in the loss of all data. Data being Documents, Pictures, Music, Videos as well as anything that can be considered data.
So far the top two virus infections are the CryptoWall and CryptoLocker infections. These nasty pc viruses will encrypt all the data on your computer so you either can not access it or for example if you open a document it looks like a bunch of gibberish. Lately I am seeing the system restore in windows either not work or there are only a couple of restore points that were there after the pc infection occurred. This causes a problem where a program called Shadow Explorer will not be able to unencrypt any of your data.
So what is the best way to protect all your data. I would either save the data to the cloud with something like Carbonite. If you are saving it to a back up external hard drive I would not have the external hard drive connected to the computer all the time. I have had occasions where the back up external hard drive had the decrypt files on it, therefore resulting in it being useless. The only choice at this point is to wipe the hard drive out and reinstall your operating system, drivers, updates, printers and all other software.
So then what is the best antivirus pc protection you may be asking. Well I prefer Avast Antivirus, AVG Antivirus, Kaspersky Antivirus and Norton 360 or Norton Internet Security. Bitdefender is also rated up high in the pc virus protection as well. I would also run Free Malwarebytes and Free Spybot, both of which are manual programs so you will have to run them. Check out my other posts for help on these computer infections. You can purchase the Antivirus Programs through my Amazon Store Below the posts.
