Resumo

Aimed at understanding informatic viruses, and analyzing and comparing the main antivirus systems avalilable a review of some comparative analysis published in sites and services of recognized prestige in this subject was carried out. A group of theorical elements on virus and antivirus systems: definitions, classification, features, structure was studied. A set of antivirus systems was analyzed and compared located among the most powerful and used in the reviewed literature: Norton Antivirus, McAfee VirusScan, Sophos, Norman Virus Control 5.0, Panda Platinum 6.22, F-Secure, PC-Cillin 7.5 and AVP. We recommend the use of F-Secure, PC-Cillin and Norman Antivirus to work in networks. For independent users, Norton Antivirus, McAfee VirusScan, AVP and Panda are the best choice. Although any antivirus system offers a complete protection we recommend the correct use of these tools to achieve a sensible reduction of the damages and losses caused by this flagellum in the network.
