[RTC List] Choice of antivirus protection

[Pat Bitton]

Well, given that AVG is my client, I kind of have to recommend them :-)
 
Seriously, though, AVG 8 is the only a-v product to provide up-to-the-minute
protection against drive-by downloads and other threats embedded in
otherwise-trustworthy web pages. Different approach than Site Advisor et al

Subject: [RTC List] Choice of antivirus protection


Greetings all  ...
 
I'd like to start a thread about different choices for antivirus protection
on your Windows-based desktop or laptop computers. Long ago, I used Norton
(from Symantec), then I switched to McAfee for a number of years, and now
I'm looking for a better replacement.
 
To get things rolling, I wrote a blog posting on this topic in May when I
dumped McAfee and went shopping for substitute protection:

I am currently using a trial version of Microsoft's Live OneCare, that has
too many flaws to keep as a long term solution.
 
Any tips or recommendations are welcome, except for gratuitous gloating over
having chosen Mac or Linux over the evil empire (Microsoft). Thanks for your
consideration.
