Re: Business Antivirus Recommendations

[Scott Klement <pctech@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bill,

Have you looked at reports like this one?  (This is a link to the 
May2010 anti-virus comparison on www.av-comparitives.org)
http://tinyurl.com/39bw8s9

Or, in general looked all the material on www.av-comparitives.org? 
There's lots of different comparisons in different ways of anti-virus 
products.  For example, some products are better at proactive, some are 
better at on-demand, some are better at removing, some slow down your PC 
more than others, etc.

Take a look at the comparisons on that site... I know I found it very 
useful.
