Hi,
Just to add that Eset care about accessibility. I as a reseller engage with
them quite a bit about this. They always make sure that the screen reader
never gets blocked when popups occur. I certainly applaud them both as a
reseller and a user. Their support to end users and partners is to me,
second to none. Yes, some of their screens still need work but they are
aware of it.
All the best
steve

another vote for eset. norton i hate with a passion and its the anti
virus i've most often had to remove from computers. accessibility isn't
that great from the little i've managed to actually do with it.
kaspersky would be a great solution if accessibility was improved. sadly
they don't seem to take it seriously. as for eset, they take an active
interest in accessibility and try and improve their products based on
feedback.
