Hi Ray,
With all the praise for Nod32 during the past couple of days, I decided to
download the trial version and give it a go yesterday. I first of all
uninstalled Avast which I've been using for a for a few months. As soon as I
tried to use Google, after installation, I got a warning message together
with an apology from Google telling me the problem was going to be fixed in
the next update and I should uninstall my present version and install the
beta. Well, I followed this advice and then got a message from Sygate
telling me that Internet Explorer was trying to connect to the Internet. I
allowed this to happen and the next time I went onto the Internet I found I
had a new version of Google but not the Desktop one.
The first thing I noticed after installing Nod32 was that my computer
appeared much faster and when I used it to scan my C and D drives it found
two trojans one of which was called something like Download Zissor and was
located in System Volume Restore.
I think I'll probably be buying Nod32 but will give it a few more days
before definitely making up my mind.
Best.
Robert.

One warning to some who might have had Google desktop installed a little
while. Its been said that older versions of this program didn't get on with
NOD32. Presumably NOD thought it was a virus! That's been solvved now
seemingly with the latest Google Desktop.
Must say I've heard a lot about NOD32 in the last few days on another couple
of lists. Assuming this isn't a sort of very clever 'viral' advertizing it
does sound as if its got a lot going for it in detecting viruses without the
benefit of actual definitions, thus in some cases getting ahead of the game.
Downside:
some programs that aren't viruses won't run. Hopefully, not many.
