Alright could anyone tell me what is the best antivirus program I should get for my pc. Cause right now when ever I open up my documents or my computer folder like 3 black windows popped up called ticad.exe then close. Im able to access the folders but that shit is annoying. I ran a scan with macafree or what ever the hell you call it but it came up clean. So could anyone suggest a strong and secure antivirus program. AVG,norton,Zone...whats the best.

This one is pretty much the best there is, I've gotten a total of 1 virus ever with norton products.

You can get all those programs, but IMO the best anti-virus is a smart user..
EDIT: (In combination with a program also, of course
)

Well put. I rarely use anti-virus stuff and I never have any problems.

Same. I have a program I use to scan some files and run system scans, but it doesn't have any active protection. I've never had any problems.

i suggest spybot and AVG free. also, don't be an idiot, as mentioned
oh, and this really belongs in tech questions & problems. not suggesting a move, but wondering why the hell the tech questions and problems forum has questions about modding....

On Files, New Users was for modding questions, where as Tech questions was for questions concerning modding programs and such technical issues, not issues with actually modifying maps. There wasn't questions like this being asked.

Linux.
But Seriously, On my windows machines I use Trend Micro PC-Cillin, which is he best consumer product and way less bloated than Norton.

Try this. go to jotti.virusscan.org and then search for the file ticad.exe.
Scan it using this(no worries,there is nothing to download) and if it has something in it,DELETE IT and BURN IT!
I will search on google for viruses called ticad.exe
