Hi Carol

Not so much beekeeping, but in defence of Allen.

I am one who also recommends Zone Alarm and AVG virus software and provide
download facilities for them on my website.

From the comparisons I have personally made, I consider them far better that
many commercial solutions, I would also include a German antivirus known as
'AntiVir', as a good alternative.

I have personally been very disappointed at the performance (or lack of) the
big name antivirus products. This is particularly important to a beekeeping
discussion group like this where only a few are electronically oriented and
unable to conduct the tests for themselves.
