To be honest I don't use any anti virus, I am the AV software. I found them
all to disturbing. Zone Alarm has some kind of AV build in which is good
enough for me, otherwise I just don't open anything that looks bad. So far I
had no virus. I also use IE Privacy Keeper, Ad-Aware Personal and Spybot.
Those programs don't slow down my computer, not that speed is that important
anymore.
Our web site is more for system development and system trading then for
general software utilities (even thou I like these little tools that help me
run my computer smoothly).
One more tool that I really can recommend is Copernicus Desktop Search. I
used every thing else, Google, MSN and X1 (paid version) which is nearly the
same as the Yahoo free version. Copernicus is really by far the best.

Thanks Volker.
(I checked the WLD site but found nothing [recent] there on Zone
Alarm)
Do you use a different brand of AntiVirus?
