Honestly, I don't administer it (except on a small closed lan) or make the call to keep using it, but we run Mcafee and have upgraded to 8.5i which has a lot more spyware related features. It's all we run, and over the time of 3 years here, we've only had one PC out of ~250 that ever got badly infected.
IMHO, you shouldn't have to run two different programs. I wouldn't want two different on-access scanners bogging down my system. Our engineers complain enough about one on-access scanner. I don't have an opinion on NOD32 though, so I'm not much help. cb -----Original Message----- From: HELP_PC [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 18, 2008 7:53 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Counterspy will not work with Nod32?

Cross-posting, heh? OK then, I'll ask this forum as well... Out of curiosity (and I'd be interested in the opinions of others on this list), which is considered to be the more serious threat - viruses or spyware (which includes bots, key loggers, back doors, worms, etc)? -------------------------------------- Richard McClary, Systems Administrator ASPCA Knowledge Management 1717 S Philo Rd, Ste 36, Urbana, IL 61802 217-337-9761 http://www.aspca.org "Steve Kelsay" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote on 01/18/2008 07:37:28 AM: > How has NOD32 been handling malware for you guys, beside the excellent > virus protection it gives?
