F-Prot Antivirus is the best like I have said all along. Found every least one of them damn viruses. In a mere 6 secs.

Yea its ok. I just use the scanner package. I dont use the live protection. Caused some problems for some reason. So I just use the scanner package which is updated weekly and scan with it each week as well. Never has found anything that F-Prot Antivirus missed. However F-Prot Antivirus has found a few that nod32 missed.

Use Sophos here and at work, its brill.

This was unexpected.
I thought NOD32 (1.802) will detect everything but:
-- it failed to scan the ZIP file
-- it failed to detect 11 files from the total of 593 viruses

Tried the eTrust Armor which is bundled with Microsoft Security Update 2004 February CD
-- it failed to detect 157 files from teh toal of 593 viruses.

Kaspersky works fine for me.
