None of the tests is of any use to me. No PC-Cillin 2000 on a Win 98SE. Nor did I find anything about other subjects than detecting viruses. What's the use of anti-virus-software if it blocks you computer? I've been using PC-Cillin for years now. Almost 24 hours a day online. No virus was ever able to do any harm on the 2 computers that have PC-Cillin installed. The third one is using the free Antivir. Worms keep on getting through even with the latest update installed (happened only yesterday - removed it with PC-Cillin) and I think I will install a substitute for it soon. But who am I to blame Antivir? After all it's a free version! And since I'm not the one who uses the PC in question, I'm not even sure if it really is Antivir that is failing, or if it's the user that gives the wrong response when detecting a virus? I've downloaded the trialversion of NOD32 and will decide then. Better be VEEEEEEEEERY GOOD, with all the fuzz they're making! :-) -- Best Whishes, Mark using The Bat! 1.63 Beta/7 ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
