Been using that too, seems to work fine. Caught a few email viruses in Outlook (was using it at work - I avoid using VirusLook, er Outlook, when I can)

edit: I know it's not free, but it's well worth the cost. The only issue I have is that it takes a while to load up on startup. But that's a small price to pay.
ok, i got some version of norton through the uni. i think that should work for now the only thing is that it doesn't do anything for emails. and there are times that i get a bunch of viruses through email. they come in swells.

Get an evaluation copy of Norton, like Norton 2002 or 2003 and set your system date for like 2006 before you install it. After installation, reset the system date back to normal and it should be good for virus signature updates for a couple more years. Shhh... don't tell anyone.

no a free, tiny program, that works Very well, is F-prot...just do a google search and you'll come up with it for sure...
i heard AVG is one of the best free antivirus programs out there. on a side note i'm using sygate firewall which is supposed to be the best free firewall out there. i hear kerio firewall is good too, but that costs money.
back on topic, i used to buy norton every year. then i got tired of dropping ~80 for systemworks, so i started getting it from a different means.
