The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

What is the best Antivirus for Vista Home Premium?

Asked by jgohil in Desktop Anti-Virus, Security Utilities, Windows Vista

Tags: , ,

What is the best antivirus for Vista Home Premium?  I've been using BitDefender av 10 for XP SP2 and it worked really well in terms of efficiency and effectiveness, and while it technically (via a recent update kit) will work with Vista, I've noticed a huge decline in the speed of web browsing.  I wouldn't mind if it was a matter of seconds, but I'm talking about hitting refresh on a page and then watching it take over 10 seconds per image on the page.  As a web developer, this basically cripples my workflow.  I know the problem is BitDefender because I first thought I screwed something up  while installing all my Firefox extensions or other software.  So i did a clean install of Vista and then proceeded to reinstall each of my programs, checking for the problem between each.  I was able to conclusively isolate the problem to BitDefender.  It really is a shame, because I've been so pleased with it.  Googling turned up little to nothing.

Oh, also I'm not interested in anti-spyware or malware or firewall, just AV.  

One final note... Please don't recommend Norton or McAfee as they both suck.

Thanks,
