McAfee vs Scarprerelease

McAfee : 1, Scar : 0

McAfee totally deleted my SCAR file today after running a scan.
>> Anyone know how to keep this from happening again?

Oh, and does SCARprerelease have a trojan?
Because it popped up with like 5 of them on there. >>

No it doesn't.
And McAfee shouldn't have won because it deleted them falsely.
Also, try using a different AntiVirus :).

I mean just in the battle.
The war is to come. xD

But what's a good free antivirus that won't take off scar?

I had that before Avira.
Switched to Avira and I think it's better than AVG.

I use GNU/Linux, along with Common Sense 2009.

Don't use AVG free, it doesn't have a firewall.

Try ClamAV or Bitdefender free.

I do not use anything, running windows vista for a year, and I do download random porn files to watch.

Guess I'm just lucky, or know how to pick my random .rar'd porn files...

But thanks for the suggestion.

I hate Avast!.
It's very annoying and stops everything and like locks files.

Happened to me to.
It's just false positives.Mcafee has alot of them, and the last scan deleted like 40 of my files without giving me a choice?

Avast is good.
AVG is good too.
Norton is also very good.

Panda internet security is also an option.

For the free category, Avira is FTW...

For the Pay category, Kaspersky is unstoppable.

Or you are already infected and just don't know. This is the case with more than 25% of Microsoft Windows users.
