    I could not agree more tecknomage Nod32 AV is more than an Antivirus and could be some of the best protection out there.
    Oddly enough I never felt the Eset Smart Suite which has AntiMalware in it was nearly as good when I was testing all those.

    You know I have always been a believer in shutting down for the night and when away from home. Part of my reasoning is
    hardware safety and lifetime but the rest is how can you infect a computer that is off? And remember waking from sleep
    is easy to do for an infection as well. The network connection disabled is equally awesome for the same reason I agree.
