Screenshots: Five overlooked enterprise grade antivirus systems

I use VIPRE. It is thorough.

The Subject of this Newsletter said Five alternatives to Microsoft Office.
How did it change to AV?

Anyway, for home I'm happy with the combination of Avast, Comodo, Malware Bytes , Microsft Security Essentials, Super Antispyware, SpywareBlaster, Ad-Aware (which is a bit too sensitive), and ClamWin Portable.

Malware Bytes, Super Antispyware, and SpywareBlaster are run manually.
SpywareBlaster is a great prevention tool that locks out bad sites (through the HOSTS file).
I update it manually once every week or so. Nearly 16 thousand bad sites are blocked, as of now.

I used to love Spybot S&D, but it has become huge (installed is in excess of 125 MB), so I do not use it anymore.
I also carry ClamWin portable on a thumb drive (with database updated of course).
I think most of them, if not all of them, do a very good job, generally, and it becomes a matter of personal choice and familiarity with the product.
In the past I used McAfee, Panda, AVG, and Norton.
I hated Norton, and I was not thrilled with McAfee; many times it missed, and then caused a lot of destruction! I have no faith in McAfe anymore. Once bitten, twice shy.

Aside from that, my FireFox has quite a number of blocking add-ons, such as "NoScript".

Now we want the original subject covered in the next article, namely Five Free Alternatives to Microsoft Office

Just two weeks ago I underwent a similar evaluation for a client (but missed VIPRE in my evaluations, dangit). The one we came up with was K7 (k7computing.com). They just bought Vexira, which was huge in the K-12 space (read: small footprint because it runs on ancient systems). I was rather pleased with what they offered, and at an aggressive price. No relation to the company, just a happy customer.
