Best Virus Scan

winky · August 13th, 2000, 05:45 PM

I have recently been testing and plan to buy Win Me and wanted to know the best virus scan for that OS? I would prefer one that is pretty much trouble free and works on all viruses, if one really exhist like that. I have used McAffee for the longest, but I do not know if it would be compatible and how it stacks up to the competition. Any input would be helpfull.

I have been using PcCillin which I have never had any problems with, it has found and cleaned viruses that Norton and McAffee have missed on customers computers. They have a 30 day free download (full version with updates) at: www.antivirus.com/pc-cillin/

I use Mcafee personally but I've been loading PCCillin on customer machines for over a year with very few problems. It's also not as taxing on older machines as Mcafee or Norton.
