I use ClamAV + SpamAssassin + Postfix on my server. The combination has been very effective, so I don't run anything on my Macs. http:// clamav.net/

My PC is virtual, and I don't use it for e-mail, and seldom for internet access, so I feel comfortable running this open source anti- malware program as my defense. A native port for win32 is available at http://w32.clamav.net.

Hi,

I've used F-Prot for many many years, and for most of that it was a great product. Very light-weight, unobtrusive and did it's job in a very straight-forward way without cluttering up my systems with unnecessary extras like a replacement firewall or phishing sniffing my HTTP traffic (I practice safe internet, eh). But the last couple versions have been more resource hungry than I like, and it's catching more false-positives than I care for, and it crashes sometimes on start-up and shut-down.

And because my F-Prot subscription is up soon I've been looking around for some alternatives to try.

After doing a bit of research I'm interested in NOD32 http:// www.eset.com/ - the Anti-virus Business version.

I also found this comparison study interesting, but I have no idea of the legitimacy.

Any thoughts anyone?

Thank you in advance for your time.

Scott,
