Hi, I'm not a computer expert nor know much about PC's, but I'd like to get help and opinions of more experienced users.

I'd like to purchase a new antivirus, and I have read some of the test results but there are many things I don't know what they mean. Basically what I want is the best protection but a software that wouldn't slow down my PC.

From what I read, in my opinion, the softwares that got my attention are:
- BitDefender.
- F-secure.
- GData.
- Bullguard.
- Comodo.

Probably there are better than those, that's why I'd like to hear more experienced users so I can purchase a great antivirus/internet security software.

Thank you.

You don't need to pay for a security program - just use a free AV program like Microsoft Security Essentials or Avast Free and keep the Windows firewall enabled.
