    I have been using this anti-virus software for over fours years. I am a broadband user online for about six hours a day. I have only had one virus get through onto my PC in all that time and AGV detected it and shut it down before it could do any damage.
    I highly recommend it. PC mags also recommend it. It may not have all the functions that paid for software has but it stops viruses, and thats the main thing!

    Also you can get online scans free at Panda software, Trenchmicro (PCcillin). These are useful backup's if you think you might have a problem.
