Title: I made a good decision
Post by: Masherbrum on December 05, 2008, 07:25:20 PM

I was on the WoT vox Weds. night with TilDeath, SHawk and DUCK1.    DUCK1 was looking for help and I believe the three of us managed to assist him.   

Then I asked TilDeath a question about Internet Security.   I knew the NOD32 was "cat's arse" for AV's.   But he mentioned they had an "all inclusive" package with Firewall, AV and Spyware.   It is the Eset Smart Security.   

Mind you I was using Threatfire, PC Tools Free AV and Firewall.   

I downloaded the Free 30 day trial of the Smart Security last night and I have found what I was looking for.   Not only does it update with absolutely minimal disruption, it scans fast and barely registers like the other AV's out there.   

But the best part?    I went from 26 processes to 20 by switching.   I'll be purchasing either a 1 or 2 year subscription around the 1st of the year.   


Thanks TilDeath!   :rock

NOD32 is awesome. I too am impressed that it has such a low system signature. However the Internet Security Package is overkill for me. I only use the AV machine.

I did the same thing about 6 months ago. It has been a great setup and works like a champ for me.
