So is Groupshield 5 significantly different from 4.5, aside from working better?

I've used both Groupshield 4.5 and Antigen, and even if you ignore reliability issues, 
I think Antigen is a much better product. Looking, for instance, at attachment 
blocking, while they both do it, Antigen's attachment blocking is considerably more 
flexible than Groupshield's. In Antigen, for instance, you can block all LNK and PIF 
files that are really executables, but not block those that really are shortcuts and 
pifs. In Groupshield though, as of 4.51 anyway, it's all or nothing.

And how about notifications? In Antigen all the notifications are editable and can be 
different, and turned on or off, for lots of groups of people such as internal virus 
senders, external virus senders, internal virus recipients, and so on. Groupshield on 
the other hand has no such configurability. 

And you wouldn't believe the difference in tech support!
