Need Advise regarding Virus Scan Apps

Reece · 11-06-07, 07:25 PM

Hi, I used to have McAfee VirusScan 4 but the new dats just cause an error, seems that the program is now too old, I reinstalled & works with the original old dats but will not work with the new ones. I then purchased a new version "VirusScan Plus 2007", only to find this will not install because I use Zone Alarm! & Ad Aware! what a load of crap!

I certainly am not getting rid of them, I think you only get 12months use out of the program now anyway, what a waste of money!

What I would like is a Virus Scan program without all the extra garbage such as firewalls, managers, & shields! Could someone please point me to a good application, if one exists!

Many thanks.
