I didn't read the recommendations, however I find the free version of AVG works very nicely. I didn't check out how it ranks with respect to finding and trapping things like viruses and malware.

I posted on this last week and got suggestions that were out of my range. I've tried Avast5, and the only reason it's still on is because i don't have anything else. I am not impressed with it, it's interface is in my opinion a step backward, it doesn't have any of the features 4 did, and system stability has taken a major nose dive since I installed it. Thanks. Dave. _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org http://lists.hodgsonfamily.org/listinfo/blind-sysadmins
