I use AVG. Kaspersky is very good in my experience, and I've heard
good things about Nod32, but never used it... --Jon.

I've used NOD32 in the past and while it looks basic it does appear to be a decent scanner. If I'm honest it looks a lot like a Windows 3.11 application! I've heard (But I don't know how true it is) that Microsoft use it to scan their servers. If they do it can't be too bad an app; they have some of the most virus ridden code around! Cheers, Dean |

I used to use Symantec 2005, but found it to be painfully
resource hungry. Everytime it scanned something my PC (P4 3Ghz 512mb yada yada) ground to a halt. I now use AVG Free and am extremely impressed. To the point I'm thinking about upgrading to their paid for version. |

That's what I tend to find about the "big names" such as McAfee, Symantec etc. It sits there and slows everything down; no wonder you don't get a virus, it can't get any CPU or IO to DO anything! ![]() |
