 I recommend it over any other antivirus but every antivirus has flaws and it also has it,it slows down old PC having 512MB of ram with 80 GB of hard disk. So it is not recommended for older PCs.It's
new interface is very nice and easy to control.First time updating is pretty large but after that it doesn't take much size.It has got many awards from AV comparatives,VB100,AV test,West coast labs and etc... It is also won the product of the year from av comparatives in 2011.


Kaspersky antivirus minimum requirements

It gives complete antivirus protection from viruses and other types of threats.Even though it slows old computers it is the best antivirus for new computers.It gives all the features that a best antivirus can have.

3) Avast pro antivirus = Avast has produced the best free antivirus and it also has paid products which also excels in detection, prevention,and removal.The pro antivirus has all the features of free antivirus + virtualized  browser (safezone),sandbox technology and more features to protect your pc from virus and other types of threats.all the products of avast has file rep which analyzes very rare file and warns about the file.
