Hello,

I have been using Sophos Anti-Virus for several years now and been very
happy with it. They consistently score very highly in reviews, don't
seem to generate many false positives or conflicts with third-party software
and have excellent tech support. It is, however, not inexpensive. Their
web site is at <http://www.sophos.com/>.

Other programs you may wish to look at are Frisk Software's F-Prot
<http://www.f-prot.com/> and eSet's NOD32 <http://www.nod32.com/>.

Regards,

Aryeh Goretsky
