Topic: Nod32 - A new antivirus option?

[bugme]

ClamAV is working quite well, IMO, but always looking around.

I read how Nod32 is the ONLY antivirus package that has caught every major 'in the wild' virus, 100% as rated by virus bulletin (www.virusbtn.com - which has some kind of cookie problem, and i can't visit it using firefox).

They have linux versions, but not sure if they have any free version.

I'm pretty sick and tired of the mainstream antivirus vendors, so this looks interesting.

ClamAV is doing well tho, on the server level, or should i say, the 'SME server' level (via dungog or swerts-knudsen contribs), so no complaints there.

If it's not broke, don't fix it. You'll be wasting resources trying for somehting else. What would you gain anyway? Clamav work fine.

If you are dead set for other solutions, dmay offers paid for solutions with bitdefender through his personal/company web site.

If you want to work for something where there is a void, work towards a solution that protects the lan from viruses. Either at a gateway level or at a management server level that reports and manages concerning desktop protection.

If you implement the following then clamav will hav every little to do. Better to reject the majority of viruses BEFORE they enter your system.

Not a single virus has slipped through the combination in over a year.

And it's free, thanks to Charlie, Gordon & others.
It's also installed as standard in sme 6.5RC1 and 7.0 (alpha).
