Re: Antivirus..Which?
 

Other, E-Trust E-Z Anti Virus.

Re: Antivirus..Which?
 

Did you keep it (NAV) up to date ?

An anti-virus program is only one part of a defensive system for computers.

Some others being (in no specific order)
. A Firewall
. A Startup Manager
. A Spyware blocker/checker
. A well trained and suspicious brain.


Don't forget even for the most protected systems there is always a window of vulnerability between a brand new nasty piece of malware being released and the various protection agents being updated.

His complaint was that as much as Norton detected the virus, it did not remove it .... It was memory resident, and so could be identified and squashed ..

Re: Antivirus..Which?
 

It kept itself inside "explorer.exe". I couldnt find it, one in registry, and two in msconfig startup. If I did, It would of been alot easier to delete.

Re: Antivirus..Which?
 

I do do regular checks on Zonealarm, and each one of my 5 ad/spyware programs.

Startup manager? o_O;
Brain? I dont have one of those.

NOD 32.http://www.esetsoftware.com/about/about.htm

Re: Antivirus..Which?
 

F-Secure does a good, reasonably priced A/V&firewall package. We run it on Mandy's laptop and it's saved our bacon a few times (the au-pair):rolleyes:
That does look good

Re: Antivirus..Which?
 

Yes NOD 32 but testing the Beta version back to my normal NOD in a few days.

Re: Antivirus..Which?
 

It's very reasonably priced too.I've been using it for over a year now.Never had any problems thus far.Also they are very quick to get back to you if you email them.Had some problems with re-registering and when I phoned tech support they talked me through it.No hanging on for ages,no waiting on hold.Updates regularly without me having to do anything,sometimes as much as 3/4 times a day.

Incog. :)

Etrust anti-virus from CA... $30 to buy and only $12 a year for updates. Small footprint and low system load...

I use the desktop version for workstations and the server version for :erm: servers :)

Re: Antivirus..Which?
 

Yeh, as Stuartbe said. If you use the 3 Steps on Microsoft's website you can get a 12-month free trial of the Etrust armour, which has the firewall and anti-virus, with free updates. It's extremly fast, uses VERY low system load (about 2mb of memory) and scans fast.

Well recommended :)
