I have been using the Avast anti-virus for sometime on my Xp system. But I am planning to upgrade to Vista. Should I get another anti-virus software?

I'd recommend Kaspersky Internet Security because Vista eats a bit more memory than XP, and Kaspersky is decent with the computer resources, not to mention it has one of the best firewalls out there.
Also a good spyware should accompany the anti virus, so keep that in mind also.
Good luck.

kaspersky is also a good option..i am using norton currently and i never had any problem with that..for Avast i would say you would be needing upgrade to their pro version for vista as home edition may not be that worthy of trying it on Vista..

A paid antivirus is a good choice however NOD 32 wasn't that good. I used it on XP for 5 Month, and I remember that the last time I've made a scan I found no virus, then I uninstall it tried out Kaspersky 6. It found 3 trojans. Kaspersky beats NOD in my opinion. I'm no sure about the price/quality ratio, that might be the same, NOD is cheaper right?

More people already love it because its light and better than other antivirus.

My father also uses NOD32. And what I mean by that? My father and his hole workmates do. They don't complain about their computer to much, but they have a good local manager that takes care of the software, and updates it weekly. I guess that a good update is the key to NOD32.

I don't know if Avast works on Vista, should work, don't see why it wouldn't, but.. Don't upgrade to Vista! Xp is much better!

My suggestion is try out other brands of anti-virus, then only make up your decision.
I did tried fews of them, finally i choice F-Secure for my computer.

I will install anti-virus software into my computer in case any emergency.

I have been using Avast home edition for the last one year. It's good with a regular update.
