| 418495 | 2006-01-06 10:53:00 | Anyhow, I always set NOD to do an indepth scan, The speed isn't really a concern (even though it kicks saggy-cheeks), the results are what matters. And NOD is far far better then its last definition update, a six month out of date install can still find and kill off viruses (though it will miss a few) that Nortons and others miss even when fully updated. Personally even if the companies concerned had products worth buying I wouldn't give em a cent if they were holding back definition files for home users. That aside, AVG seems to have a constant supply of updates, Its still not that great. NOD32 for the win, and I still think the thread should have been locked after I said futher discussion doesn't change the facts. :nerd: |

ZA is good for those who don't really want to know the in's and outs of firewalls. |

| 418502 | 2006-01-08 20:47:00 | We changed over to NOD32 here at work about 1 month ago. We were using McAfee Enterprise before that. In that month NOD32 has picked up about a dozen viruses & adware/spyware. McAfee never picked up adware/spyware. Servers and workstations also run a lot better. |

| 418503 | 2006-01-09 02:45:00 | McAfee does have its own separate antispyware, but you will have to pay for them. NOD does not scan deep inside archives thus uses less resource. Any reviews on firewalls? |

| 418504 | 2006-01-09 04:25:00 | I've used PC-Cillin (now PC-Cillin internet Security suite) since I got a free version with a mobo back around 1998. I don't know how good it is cos I've never had a virus! :D It costs - around $50 a year, but seems to do the job. It updates sometimes two or three times a day and catches the odd nasty. The corporate bods at work (Wintec aka Waikato Polytech) have recently installed it in place of McAffee on a thousand or so machines so someone else must think its okay as well. |
