Been using Avast for a while but looking for a change. Total AV seems to be popping on top of most lists but still interested in your opinions and what you are using.

@dudebropartyyo: No brainer to get the best paid AV like Norton, ESET, Kaspersky.

Been away with work. Yeah i dont use the free version of Avast have the paid version, sticking to it for the moment. They just bombard you with all these extras that i feel should be a part of any AV package

I have Avira and it was fine for a while, but the pop-ups are annoyed.

Thinking of going for a paid option, am also curious.

Is Norton paid one of the best?

I'm assuming it's a yearly renewal as well? Which is fine, just curious.

Yearly renewal - sort off, you can buy a code for 1 year without auto renewal.

I like ESET, they're giving support in my country in my native language, update their db 3 times a day.

Norton and Kasperski are good choices as well.

@Yams1980 Ferrari must have good Russian connections haha. Jokes aside, i dont trust any software i install when it comes to information collecting. I mean American government does the same to most other countries so dont see why Russians doing it is now a big deal. Besides maybe other AV providers install keyloggers and backdoors or what not in different ways harder to detect. But anyways, funny i never heard that anywhere else :)
