Good antivirus for SP2?

Norton 2003 + SP2 = no liveupdate.
If that was your only complaint, then it is fixed because LiveUpdate 2.5 came out, install it to get it running as normal. :)http://www.symantec.com/techsupp/files/lu/lu.html

Also, there's a WMI patch by Symantec to enable the Windows Security Center to "see" NAV's status (any version). I'll send it to anyone willing to host it for others. :)

NAV sucks. 

The best antivirus program is Trend Micro PC-Cillin.  It doesn't slow down your computer at all.  It got the highest review for an antivirus program on cnet.

The last time I used that, it screwed up my computer... I had to manually delete everything, registry and everything... :wacko:

thats cause you probably had either:

another antivirus program allready on your computer (NAV?) usually uninstalling NAV causes problems with your computer. NAV is such a crappy program that when you uninstall it, your computer goes crazy. you should have a clean install of windows before installing an antivirus program. my view is that if you are going to switch av programs, do it with a reformat of windows.

or u already had viruses on your computer that were messing with installers.

nod32 uses hardly any resources, and is a very very powerful virus scanner. been using it for a long time. havn't had a single virus

nod32 didn't catch a virus/similar that really f***ed my pc a while ago (my brother downloaded a keygen or something... he scaned it, with the latest virus defs, and nothing happend, so he used it, and BOOM every *.exe from c:\ was f***ed... i know it was his fault, but i changed antivirus after that)

nav corporate v9 seems fine.

i would try other AV if i am told they are better

HI all,

I use easy antivirus (Innoculan) and it has worked excellently for me. It scans incoming and outgoing mail etc... I have never had a virus with it, seems to catch everything. It also can come with a firewall, which is made by zone alarm for them. However I use Kerio fire wall, did not install the EZ firewall.

For those who cannot afford a antivirus or firewall here is a address where you can get this for free and it is full retail version also. It is free for one year to microsoft users.
