HA! Take that McAfee and Symantec!  :Thmbsup:

Sounds like McAfee and Symantec want Vista LESS secure so that they can peddle their scareware.  "Oh my! A cookie! You've been p0wn3d!"

SpySweeper has just relesed their latest version which now incorporates the Sophos engine as well so you get anti-virus and anti-spyware in one app. Anyone have any experience wtih Sophos? I'm running AVG 7.5 Pro and am happy with it - my subscription is still good for over a year but I can get a year of SpySweeper/Sophos for $10. Anyone have a strong opinion one way or the other?

JavaJones:
Yeah, this has been discussed a fair bit over in this thread too: https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=5827.0

As for Sophos, I've heard very good things about it, but I have no personal experience. Sounds worth it at that price though - Spysweeper is also one of the better antispyware apps.

Renegade:
I use AVG as well. Haven't used Sophos, but I'd use almost anything over McAfee or Symantec. They really just put me off.

Darwin:
Just to clarify - I already have SpySweeper - the $10 adds the antivirus functionality to my existing subscript (lest the masses go running looking for SpySweeper at $10...!).
