112760 2003-01-10 23:24:00 AVG if you want free.
Stay with NAV if you want to pay. NAv will auto update, whereas AVG you have to go to the site and find out when an update has happened.

112761 2003-01-10 23:31:00 nav 2002 is still newish so i would stick with it unless your really cheap then go for a free one like avg. you usually get what you pay for. tweak'e (174)
112762 2003-01-10 23:45:00 I got AVG about six months ago after a discussion on it here.

It's free.

It works.

Some ppl are students and may not be able to afford a subscription for an AV.

True you get what you pay for, but I have never had a virus since running AVG and nor my parents. :)

112766 2003-01-11 00:47:00 my 2 cents. if you know anything about pc's - then you don't REALLY need anti-virus software (email borne ones are easy to spot; and i havn't seen many web-based (maybe vb-script viruses))

also, AVG does not release updates as often as NAV.

i've put viruses onto updated AVG pc's and it doesn't find when NAV does.

therefore AVG is second-rate, but nice price :-)
