Hi.

I haven't had any problems with AVG, except that sometimes it gets a little 
pushy with grabbing the focus while it is doing its automatic update.  But 
my solution for that was just to do a manual update right off the bat when 
I log on, and then it is done.

I don't like the way they display the results of the scan, but I figured 
out how to work with it after a fashion.  Yes, I agree that it isn't 
perfect, but it seems to be hard to find an antivirus program that is.

Anyway, I talked to one of my colleagues at the adaptive technology center 
in Buffalo, and he seems to think highly of NOD32, and I see a link for it 
on GW Micro's web site.  I am toying with the idea of obtaining it when I 
buy the new computer and checking it out.

73, de Lou K2LKK
