Re: Anti virus Confused

Hi all,
Anyone familar with how to rig the AVG thru a FW like Outpost? I have
assigned ports for the servers, but no log data coming in for FW or AVG.
OEv.6 is the email client and it gets its mail thru an ssl connect.

Iv got Avast Antivirus, Home Edition, but so many people have told me
that it mises a lot of viruses, is this true?

Iv also got Ewido antispyware, supernatispyware.

What other free antivirus is good? (apart from avg, which is worse than
avast)

It is not true.

I would like to see the list of viruses that Avast misses if anyone
could
actually supply one. I've been using Avast for a couple of years, and
also
installing it on ALL of the systems that I build and/or clean and not
one
person or customer has been infected with a virus since I've been using
it.

When I originally switched to Avast, these forums were filled with posts
criticizing Norton and McAfee as missing lots of viruses, and talking up
AVG, Avast, and Nod32. I had McAfee and started to get worried, even
though I had never been infected with a virus while using McAfee. I
finally decided to try AVG and Avast because I got tired of paying
McAfee's yearly fees.

pc doc
AVG is very very good, but not cheap to own.
