When it comes to Computer Security, we all want the best protection. More and more computer viruses are discovered everyday. A few years ago, i was not afraid to use my Computer without an Antivirus software but things are not the same today. When it comes to Antivirus software, a lot of choices are available but some are not good enough and some are very heavy on system resources. Eset’s Nod32 is one of the best Antivirus software that you can find in the market. It is light on resources, offers real time protection against a wide variety of malwares and scanning speed is lot faster than most of the similar products.

The program requires no configuration after installation. You can just install and use it or if you are an advanced user, you can enter the Advanced mode to configure the program according to your need. The default mode also works great. The interface of the program is very simple and almost anybody can use it. The program is very light on system resources and consumes around 35MB of memory. You can install it on your new as well as old PC and it wont effect the speed. Even if you are working on something or playing a game while a scan is going in the background, you wont feel a difference.

One of the best things about it is the Proactive protection it offers using the award winning Threat Sense technology. It uses advanced heuristic methods to detect new types of threats that have not been detected before. It will execute the suspected code in the background in constrained environment to detect its behavior and will report it accordingly. All this is achieved without compromising on the scan speed. I installed the program on one of my PCs which was part of a Local Area Network and quickly it was able to detect a variety of virus like ‘Kinza’, ‘New Folder’ and a lot of adwares as well. It removed them easily also.

Updating the virus signatures requires no effort and can be done by the push of a button. You can even submit a file for inspection if you feel something is wrong. It can even detect unwanted programs that can be harmful for a computer. You can schedule scan and updates and also quarantine suspicious files which are infected. The best thing about the software is its speed and real time protection without making your computer slow.

A one year subscription of the home version costs around $39.99 which is quite reasonable. You can also try the program free for 30 days to see if you like it or not. Overall, it is one of the best antivirus software available and is worth spending money on.
