Don't know if this listing made it to the entire list, so here it is.
It's consumer report's evaluation of free and paid antivirus programs. I
forgot to include No. 13, which is Mcafee.

I also have a current subscription to Eset Smart Security and have to
make a decision in the next few months of which way to go. Please
take
note of Eset's rating as well if you would be so kind.\

I seem to remember that the Vipre program was near the bottom of
the
nonfree programs.
I'll read it again tomorrow, and if I am wrong, I'll let you
know.

Hi Josh,
Very interesting about the Microsoft offering.
Were any of the non free anti virus programmes covered as well?
I am currently trialing Vipre Premium (anti virus and firewall)
and
was
wondering hif this programme was mentioned and if so, how it
went.
Thanks
Neville.

Hey listers,
Consumer Reports magazine has for the last few times they've
reviewed
antivirus programs, recommended Avira's antivirus program the
best
among
free programs. This past June, they did so again, and the one
whom
many
of us have switched to, after leaving AVG, Microsoft Security
Essentials,
was dead last among the free antivirus programs. So the
question
is, is
any one of you using this program, and does it work well with
WE?
