Antivirus 2011 Reviews

kaspersky 2011 - best antivirus 2011

Kaspersky Antivirus is almost a second name to security. I easily make this one as my top choice for the “well-known-authority” Antivirus program. Kaspersky never stopped developing and the 2011 version is very promising.

Kaspersky scores very high, year after year in various Antivirus and Antispyware tests and although 2010 is a great year for this Antivirus, many claim that 2011 is going to be even better for Kaspersky in technology and popularity.

Top Pros: Very easy user interface. Scored very high in independent lab tests. Excellent support (built-in the program). Excellent  speed performance (scan & virus removal speed was impressive) .

Top Cons: Has a relatively high false positive detection – sometimes detects “innocent” programs as threats.

antivirus 2011AVG Antivirus is one of the most popular Antivirus programs for 2010. What will make it the most popular in 2011 ?
 
It is simply a good hard working Antivirus. All things indicating that AVG will keep on strengthening what they are good at:
 
Providing an Antivirus that does all the basic defense regular users need in the most effective and simple way there is to it.

Top Pros: Very nice-easy-going Antivirus, perfect for the “regular-non-geek” user. A great Anti identity theft protection.

Top Cons: A bit slow threat scanner and has some false positive (identify non threats as threats).

antivirus 2011Complete Protection Antivirus & Security is a relatively new security bundle. According to the rising popularity of this Antivirus it is safe to assume that their ever improving technology will surprise us even more in 2011.
 
Although this is the most inexperienced company reviewed here, they are also the most promising for 2011 and one of their strongest advantage is a very powerful yet simple interface.

Top Pros: Fast, effective and non intrusive protection I have ever experienced. Received great independent lab testing results.

Top Cons: It is considered the most “anonymous” of the listed programs here, so it lacks the authority other well established Antivirus programs got.

Antivirus 2011

Antivirus 2011

Trend Micro Antivirus was considered until 2010 as a good-average Antivirus. It did its work, but was never graded as more than “good”. According to various security experts that tested the Trend Micro Antivirus 2011 it seems that this is all about to change.

Although there is no actual “proof” that the 2011 update is going to be a breakthrough the Antivirus industry waiting in anticipation to the 2011 version release.

Top Pros: Good bundle of Antivirus with AntiSpyware protection.

Top Cons: Relatively primitive protection mechnism for the current version, 2011 release supposed to change that.

Which Antivirus software will be the best protection for your computer from now on through 2011?

The online world is full with threats, some might harm your computer, slow it down, others will try to steal your identity.
It seems that the number of threats is equal only to the number of protection solutions offered by virtually almost everyone.

The number of Antivirus programs is almost equal to the number of threats, how can one tell which protection will do the best work for his computer?

I have went through the major Antivirus programs that scored the highest through 2010 and checked which are predicted to lead the Antivirus market
also through 2011. I have checked what expert are predicting, the scores these programs already got for 2010, but also the new
technology and improvement planned for the 2011 releases.

Some of the listed Antivirus already offer their 2011 versions (I have marked those) and the rest will give you a free update when the new release
will be ready (you might save some bucks in case the new release will be more expansive by buying now the current version).
