Default Panda AV Platinum 7 ?


I just downloaded Panda AV Platinum 7.0 and it appears to be very easy to
configure and navigate.
Useful firewall built in. Auto update.
It has picked up viruses that AVG missed.
I have tried AVG & eTrust and this seems to be the best so far!
Anyone have any experience with Panda products?
Let me know.

Try to make this look less like SPAM next time.

Sorry to disappoint you but this is my post (NOT Spam)based on AV software
that I have found to be useful!
That is what I thought newsgroups were for.
Hopefully someone may benefit or add to my post.

Most people tend to read just the first few lines to decide whether it
is worth continuing with a post, and the first five lines of your post
read like spam. It is only if you get to the last line that you
realize that it is not

After eTrust let pass a W32.Sober.C@mm attached to an e-mail, I
installed a 90 days version of Panda AV Platinum 7 provided by "PC
Games Hardware" on its January, 2004 CD (Yes, Simon, that's an
excellent magazine, so if you are able to read German...;-).

It is easy to configure, indeed, and to deactivate and reactivate...
_but_ it controls e-mails _only_ sent/reveived via Outlook or Outlook
Express whereas I prefer Mozilla (now 1.6) with its comfortable junk
control.
(May be I install NAV later which easily controls all e-mail traffic,
even with Mozilla...)

Sorry, I can't give any advise on Panda but I had the same problem with
NOD32. My email client is Eudora.

This is what their support wrote:
"I've now spent some time browsing eudora's configuration dialog and I
haven't been able to figure out how to set the port number there. it
means that pop3 scanner cannot be configured with multiple accounts."

Cheers

You may want to look at Trend Internet Security. It's email scanning
isn't limited to just Outlook and Outlook Express.

I've been using it for 3-4 months now and I think its great. I used to
use AVG Pro but it missed virii that Panda picked up.
I recommend it.

I've used Panda Platinum on my PC since July/03, and I am happy with it. It
does automatic updates everyday, scans my pc every night even when I am
logged off (some AV can't do that unless you give them system privileges). I
haven't have any virus on my pc, and I don't have to worry about it.
Firewall is easy to use.
