One antivirus to rule them all and in the darkness bind them.
I’ve run into this problem twice in the past two days so I thought it was a good idea to blog about it: I think having an antivirus program is essential if you are a Windows user. But I’m seeing computers running two antivirus programs side by side. And folks, that ain’t good. The two antivirus programs fight with each other continuously and slow a computer down to a crawl. Most antivirus programs will do the job adequately, although I have my favorites. But just pick one. Uninstall the one or ones you don’t like and you will improve your computer’s performance instantly.
As to which antivirus I like, it is AVG Antivirus Free Edition 2012 available here.
