Who made it the standard, it is merely one of many programs out there that
people can choose to use.

You have stated that it is the new standard in "free" accessibility. does it
compare with the paid AVG? thanks.

Microsoft Security Essentials is the new standard in free accessible
real-time anti-virus programs.  It has a smaller footprint than either Avast
or AVG, and is not a resource hog.

Subject: Avast and Jaws again!

 

Recently people on this list have discussed false posatives with Jaws and
Avast.

 

I suspect that Avast has made updates since then.  Have these updates
repaired the problem?

 

If so do you all think that Avast is still a good antivirus program to use
with Jaws? 

To put the question another way, does Avast have a smaller footprint and
take up less resources than AVG?

 

Thanks, for any ideas you may have.

 

Peter
