I downloaded and tried out the new TrendMicro 2005. It has anti-spam but only if you use outlook, no deal for me I use gmail and thunderbird for my isp account. I also notice it has some anti-phishing scheme, dunno how that works, but it also claims to be able to protect your pc from giving away your personal information, but that setting is not on by default :|. So far I'm unhappy shelling out 25 bucks for this years release :(. scan times are no diffrent than their 2003 product... and realtime protection is not a hog, but you can't turn on the scan "every" file or it WILL bog down your system. Instead I used the default recommended files.
I've emailed them about cancelling my purchase so that I can go out and try NOD32.
