I agree about NOD32. I've heard this many times.
But a visit to their web site indicates it is not for the beginner! So
that's something at least to consider.

You know, this really means nothing. All you point to is their own site!
Almost everyone agrees it is a resource hog.

When I have read reviews on NOD32, it is described as 'not for the newbie'.
I probably need something simpler.

As I say, DUMP panda. Slowed my machine incredibly.
NOD32 is not all the difficult, and is great at what it does. I am no
techie, but navigated NOD32 just fine.
