QUOTE(who.am.i)Well, I do agree with you that norton is fucked.. but NOD32 barely detects anything for me..
And the fact that (well, last time I checked - about a year ago, LoL) it costs money, and avast! and AVG are free..well..

Is NOD32 free now..?

(oh, and Dee, thanks for backin me up.. :wink:)

NOD32 is not free.

I had no reason to change, so I haven't looked for anything new in about a year and a half either.

I googled "NOD32 vs AVG" and ran across this page http://www.techsupportalert.com/free-vs-paid-av.htm

The page seems to be a bit old though (march 05).

If anyone wants to put the latest versions of the AV packages to the test it would help us all.

Free trial version of NOD32 here: http://nod32.com/download/trial.htm

Does anyone use McAffee? Would you recomend it?

Lol...I think that sums it up. Why wouldn't you use it A?

Well, my Norton just expired, and I don't feel like dropping $50 to renew it, so I'm giving AVG a try. I need something because there's something kicking the shit out of my comp right now...
