I use it for quite a while now and it seems very good.
Speed and size is simply the best of what I found sofar. (never crashed either)
Protection..... that probebly an endless discussion but it seems to do very well for me.

Meaning an hourly update doesn't always mean the virusbase is up to date.
I mean if they send an update that contains a fix that Norton released 2 weeks ago an hourly update doesn't mean much.
But in the recent week they seemed to be very fast with fixes for the new worms.
But to really know who is fastest you need to have installelled all anti virus tools.

Best regards and virusfree trading,
