You say "comprehensive" Onecare's db lags by most standards. I have a second
computer i use just to go check out the sights that hackers and other
unsavory types like to set up. Onecare found 2 Trosions, Norton found a
couple (sorry about spelling) I ran AVG on the same computer after running
those 2 and the FREE version found all and cleaned the system along with the
spyware and adware these sights installed.

I do not in anyway work for AVG (or grisoft the publishers)

This is my own opinon only, and i think people should know if there is a
better choice.

now ver. 8 has a firewall.
