My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me.

Ah, missed this while I was away on holiday!

Was just about to Post a Thread about it, having successfully downloaded and installed it to replace AVG Free.

Good job I did a Forum Search first

It is much less resource hungry than AVG and seems cleaner, leaner and meaner.

My System: I bet on red. If I lose, I double the bet on red again. I continue with this until I lost everything.

I know - I surprised myself

My problem in doing a thorough evaluation is that I've never picked up any nasties anyway (through sensible use) so as far as effectiveness at identifying and removing Threats goes, I must take the word of others - and there is little enough data yet.

But a resource saving is a bonus already.
