The first question you may be asking is “How do I know if my antivirus software is slow?” Well I’m glad you asked!

To determine whether or not your antivirus software package is slow, check out these Antivirus Performance Results At AV-Comparatives. AV Comparatives is an independent, 3rd party virus testing company specializing in various antivirus software performance tests.

The performance results from AV Comparatives will give you a great snapshot of where your current antivirus software package lands. If your antivirus package is extremely poor performance then I would recommend uninstalling it and replacing it with a different antivirus software package.

Typically my recommendation for free antivirus software is Avast! Free Edition. You can actually grab a copy from my Free Downloads page in the Antivirus and Antimalware section.

A Warning Against Multiple Antivirus Software Packages

Installing more than one antivirus software package is never a good idea. This is mostly because antivirus software packages attempt to scan files in real time. If you have multiple real time scanners it can cause severe performance issues and sometimes even cripple your system.

Very often installing multiple antivirus software packages with real time scanners can cripple or slow down computers.
