Question on the litest Windows Anti-virus
Posted by: coius on 2007-12-19 19:49:39 I need to know which is lighter on this system: Pentium 233Mhz MMX 128MB PC-66Mhz 40GB HDD DVD/CD-RW (pulled from another machine) These are the two anti-virus I am looking at: Avast! or AVGFree I need to know which has the litest memory footprint and which requires less CPU Cycles to do active-protection I need these to be in free mode though.
Posted by: Cory5412 on 2007-12-19 20:00:36 I'd take AVG purely because it's what I use on all of my other systems, but for pure lightness, if you can get ahold of Sophos AV, (which isn't free unfortunately), that'd be awesome. Sophos is lightweight purely because it doesn't do any actual work.
