Hi, I would just add to this that every blind person I know has agreed it's less of a hog on resources than other antivirus software. I would also mention that it really looks after itself and so is a low learning curve, even if a little different when you first start to use it. Give it a try. You won't regret it! Make sure you well and truly get rid of any anti-virus programs you're already running before installing this one to eliminate any possibility of trouble. -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: "Malcolm Parfitt" <malcolm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, December 04, 2006 6:14 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Anti Virus Software > well, NOD32 has scored higher in independent testing than any other AV > product. > Take the VB100 awards Virus bulletin awards for detection of in-the-wild > viruses NOD32 has just been awarded its 41St VB100 award.
