Antivirus Help

What is the best and longest lasting antivirus software?

I would like an antivirus software program that lasts 2 to 3 years, if possible.

1. i have had norton antivirus for a number of years and it has worked fine. you have to renew it every year for a price. you can get avast antivirus from nonags.com for free and its good too. jerry r.
2. good luck with that considering that antivirus require daily updates becuase that is how quick viruses emerge. if you want free try avg. otherwise by a 3 year subscription to one of the many antivirus venders out there.
3. avg
4. McAfee
5. what matters not so much is the program but rather the availability of the antivirus list updates if you do not have the up to date list - its of limited use most commercial antivirus programs sell one year update licences norton etc Many " free" antivirus programs will now update by themselves ( it used to be the free versions had to be updated manually) AVG free is fine If the program updates over time ( say a major windows service will come out an they have to update the software) it will update the program as well http://www.download.com/AVG-Anti-Virus-Free-Edition/3000-2239_4-10320142.html?tag=lst-3 Avast is good too http://www.download.com/Avast-Home-Edition/3000-2239_4-10019223.html?tag=lst-1 Spyware is a much bigger problem than viruses run these on a regular basis with updates http://www.download.com/Spybot-Search-Destroy/3000-8022_4-10122137.html?tag=lst-1 http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-2007/3000-8022_4-10045910.html?tag=pop.software
6. I use Nortons' it takes up quite a bit of ram but if you get the Nortons Internet Security package, you get just that , adware spyware firewall, everything. I have been using it for years like they said for a price once a year and the updates are up to date also.
7. Norton's been working for me its on all my computers and they're all running good
8. Your best bet is to buy a 3 year subscription to the top rated product Kaspersky, unless you want free protection . try hunting on Amazon, ebay, yahoo, and google shopping type in Kaspersky and 3 year. The top rated Antivirus/Spyware suite by those who test antivirus programs (av-comparitives, virus.gr, etc) is Kaspersky (I have used this to clean up machines that nothing else would work on. you can download a 30 day free trial here. http://www.download.com/3120-20_4.html?qt=Kaspersky&tag=srch&tg=dl-20 After cleaning up your computer I suggest buying it, if you can’t afford it then These 2 free tools will help you keep your computer clean ~ Patrick Check out the video review below for the best free Antivirus program The Top Rated Free Antivirus Program researched from those who test Antivirus programs (av comparatives, virus.gr, and other reviews including this video review) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhXZo3dHulc is Avira Antivir http://www.download.com/Avira-AntiVir-PersonalEdition-Classic/3000-2239_4-10322935.html?tag=lst-1 Today you are in more danger from Spyware I Download, Install, Update and Run SuperAntiSpyware http://www.download.com/SUPERAntiSpyware-Free-Edition/3000-8022_4-10523889.html?tag=lst-2 ( I used this to remove spyware and Trojans from a laptop that adaware would only detect but not get rid of ) It detected and removed everything
