I’ve written about NOD32 Anti-virus in my Security Software Recommendations article in each issue of my newsletter. It’s the anti-virus program that I use on all my Windows computers. I began using it in 2003 after becoming dissatisfied with one of the big-name anti-virus programs which, in my opinion, had gotten too bloated, required too much computing power and was slow to provide virus signature updates.

Our IT people at the office had moved us to NOD32 the previous year, so I had a year of (involuntary) experience using it — and knew that it was quick, efficient and interfered little with other things I was doing on the computer.

First, I bought copies for my notebook computer and my desktop computer, so I could try it (well, it really has a 30-day full-function free trial, but I already knew that I wanted it). A couple weeks later, I bought copies for my my wife’s computer and my son’s. I asked my son install the trial version and let me know if he wanted it — after the first scan, he said “Yes!”
