I'm just making a quick post. For any of you out there who need to renew your virus subscriptions from Norton, McAfee, or whatever company you've got your anvirus software from, I recommend switching to NOD32 by ESET. In comprehensive tests, it rated just as well or better than all of the competitors. Plus, since most of it is written in assembly, it's 2-5x faster on scanning through your files, while also being very light on your system. Ever notice Norton grind your computer to a halt when it's scanning? That's why you need NOD32. New virus definitions are available daily from NOD32, instead of once-a-week from Norton.
Plus, it's cheaper than Norton. So why would you spend more for a product that is slower and not as good at catching viruses? Isn't it about time you
switched to NOD32? PS, You can find NOD32 on NewEgg.com for even cheaper.
There's also other alternatives if your wallet's currently empty. Try the 30-day trial of NOD32 or
Avast! which is pretty good at detecting viruses and doesn't slow the computer down too much when scanning. It's just not nearly as fast as NOD32. (Avast has an x64 version of their software out, too!)
I second that. I have been using Eset's Nod32 for over two years and have installed it on no less than 200 machines. It is always reliable, it updates itself all the time, NOT just the definitions, but also program - which is a HUGE benefit to users of the Windows world.
