Re: Recommendation for Antivirus



Eric,

| Norton especially qualifies more as a "virus nest" IME, I've seen
| more than one machine "protected" by an up-to-date Norton, that would
| be revealed as a host to hundreds of species of viruses and worms
| once you ran an AVG scan on it...

And it is almost impossible to get Norton OFF of a system once
installed!!!
