    This man speaks wise words. NOD32 is the best AV utility I've ever used.

    It is the best (and least memory-hungry) AV I've used, coupled with Fort Knox Firewall, I'm happy with my system.

    I refuse to waste my memory with any type of virus scanner as they slow down computers to a crawl. In fact, your computer will probably preform better with some viruses than mcrappy or norton.

    I do my surfing, shopping, etc on a linux box. Windows is just too much of a virus magnet these days.

    I switched to linux (ubuntu 7.10 developers build right now) full time and I love it no viruses, great community, great software, flexibillity.. and all the other awesome things plus it's not windows (although it does run windows apps.) also Ive got xp dualbootable and it runs in a virtual box if I load virtualbox im collecting viruses on my virtual winblows machine.

    The ubuntu community is excellent. unlike most distros "RTFM!" snobs, ubuntu's community is very respectful and helpful (though there are always a few assholes).
