    Hi everyone!
    Just wanted to say to all of you that Mcafee(Pro 8) seems to be the best
    antivirus around.
    Mcafee auto updates itself without asking(norton asks). And displays
    It is the only one(from norton 2004,panda and mcafee) who identifies the
    following as viruses/backdoors:

    1. VBS/Inor.B
    2. VBS/Psyme
    3. Exploit -CodeBase.Gen
    4. JS/Exploit-FileProxy
    5. JV/ShinWow
    6. X-Wreck(my own - unpublished backdoor - identified by the huristic
    engine)
    7. http://www.realtime-spy.com keylogger
    8. Cain & Abel(which is a trijan) - as possibly evil tool
    9. Nmap - as possibly evil tool

    As the facts proove mcafee is the best for now, though i saw a research
    claiming BitDefender
    as the best. BitDefender is great, but comparing it with mcafee is a little
    hard task to do.
