I believe the program cost $39 or there abouts for two years. I personally found it very unfriendly with screen readers and have since stopped using it even though I have several months to go on my subscription. I now use Avast. Once I configured Avast I was very happy with the program. ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Ferrin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I do know a guy who's opinion caries some wait with me and he likes nod 32 very much but personally I have not experienced using the program. I'll ask him how much it does cost for sure but I don't believe it is very much.

David, I have used AVG and am now using Avast. Both of these are the free
programs.

I liked AVG because it automatically scanned my computer at a scheduled
time, but I was amazed to find out when i installed and ran a scan with
Avast that my computer had a virus and malware that AVG and my anti spy
programs didn't pick up.

Avast has picked up malware in a few scans, so I know it's more efficient
than AVG, at least in my opinion.

The thing I don't like about Avast is that I have to manually initiate a
scan.  It's not a big deal, but sometimes I get caught up in other things
and I just don't think to run the thing.

I am thinking of looking into Nod32.  Do you know anything about this
software? Is it friendly with JAWS? i know it isn't free, but do you know
how much it costs?

So now I gave you some answers and some questions. it will be interesting
to see what others have to say about this.

Here of late I'm pondering my choice to go with avast instead of staying
with AVG that I used for 2 years. Although AVG had a few false positives
avast has had more in the past 6 months or so than AVG did in to years. Yes at the time there was a major issue with AVG 8 but FS has done something on
their end to repair what the AVG people broke if I understand things
correctly. I'm looking for feedback and opinions especially if anybody out
there has used both products over the years. I could go back to AVG easy
enough but I am also considering some other folks who tend to follow my
guidance because I do not want to steer them wrong either.
