Great offer if you ask me.
ESET is a very lightweight antivirus that has a high detection rate with a very low false positive rate.
I have used it for many years!
The 35% off code applies to any ESET product on their website. http://www.pro1.com.au/shop/
this is a good anti virus software. if i can remember correctly i got it off eBay for 3 years license of smart security edition for the same price as op. all you need is the legit username and password.
50% off for anyone in the education sector through eset directly. Just purchase the software at full price then send them an email [email protected] with the order number and education postal address from your education email address for the refund. Eg. Nod32 is $20/yr
Bitdefender has better detection (http://chart.av-comparatives.org/chart1.php) and is usually free (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/174665). I'm not sure why you'd choose this over that. Kaspersky is another that's good and you can get keys for around $10-15 from Newegg regularly.
This uses computer resources very efficiently compared to the other two.
It doesn't nag as often as the others.
Yes, it is true that it has the least impact on system resources, although Bitdefender and Kaspersky are almost as good in this regard: http://www.av-comparatives.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/av…
Real-World Protection Tests:
Bitdefender 99.4%
ESET 98.6%
PC Mark:
Bitdefender 97.7%
ESET 98.8%
Cost:
Bitdefender $0 (2 * free 6-month keys)
ESET $25.97
Edit: I personally couldn't be bothered with refreshing free BD keys every 6 months so I bought a 3 PC / 2 Year sub to BD Total Security for $US9.95.
I went for eset due to it being so light over bitd, in my case anyway. I also think there is a lot to be said for a software that is rarely given away with free months or discounts
I found Bitdefender very intrusive - it wants to take over and/or embed itself in apps, security etc. The difference in detection rates for the top anti-virus programs is negligible . ESET has been in the top 3 for many years.
I also have used this for years and highly recommend
