Speaking personally, I have been really happy with F-Prot. It costs I think $2 per year to license a computer (you have to purchase a minimum license count that takes the cost to $50... but bottom line is you can license an office-full of systems for fifty bucks a year where Norton et al wants a LOT more. Also F-Prot can schedule updates hourly or even more tightly I think. Hourly checks aren't too frequent in this era.
Surprised no one has mentioned ClamAV, which is free and open source. The ClamWin gui seems to work nicely. No idea how effective it is relative to other things though. Still its free. Clam is running on my mail server (checking incoming mail) and F-Prot on my desktop. I pull mail from different places too, but I funnel it to my mail server, where a Bayesian+ gateway can have its way with it. Then Thunderbird's antispam filters get to do their thing and I see maybe 1-5 spams per week. Zero virii ever. .. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:204484 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
