I'm going to be making a choice on an Antivirus as I've posted before in
a couple of months. I have Norton and am very pleased with it but figure
I might as well research as many as I can before it expires... Panda was
recommended to me by a friend and truthfully, I don't see Panda being
mentioned or at least a quick scan didn't show any mention of it....
Any thoughts? Positive or negative? Thanks.

Oh my God, don't go with Panda. (Our small business has many machines.)
I used it until I trashed it. It gobbles up system resources.
Computers booted VERY slowly.
Then I went with NOD32 and am happy.
Kaspersky is good too.
NOT PANDA!

OK, thanks.... No wonder no mention of it was found by me....I think I know
now what to choose thanks to the opinions of this group, who are much more
experienced on the subject than I,.... which by the way is a great find for
me. Just reading the posts helps me to learn and I have much to learn when
it comes to computers. Thanks again .... to all that took the time to post
replies to my original post. ..... Vi
