Anyway, it would be helpful if you would define what you mean by "the
best".

Re: Anti-virus software (again)

NOD32 is supposed to be the best, as is Kapersky (as tested to find a
certain number of intentionally placed viruses). I like AVG myself. Free,
does a great job (never got a virus after running AVG for over a year and a
half, then running NOD32).

Not suprisingly, McAfee and Norton weren't at the top...
