Re: ESET antivirus

["Matt Laskosky" <matt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not a PC tech but am an IT guy, I usually have 2-4 PC's setup for
myself, family and one in the spare room for visitors. I researched
antivirus programs a year or so ago and found that ESET received a lot of
good reviews and press; so, I took the plunge.  My experience was that ESET
did degrade the performance of my PC's to the extent that I uninstalled it
and went back to Norton; but, Norton also degraded the performance of my
PC's.  A couple of months ago the LCD on my Dell 9300 crapped out; so, I
bought a mini to setup as a spare/travel PC, at that time I researched
antivirus software again, I found that Microsoft essentials received a lot
of good reviews and press, and its free; so I took the plunge.  So far I
have been happy with Microsoft essentials, PC's performance is great, no
problems with viruses, program updates received often, I like it.
