General Policy Statement - Antivirus Section
Members should not start topics in this section asking "Which is the better or faster or lighter or whatever?" or make comparison threads setting one Antivirus product against another (i.e. this vrs. that). Topics such as those require no thought, always produce the same arguments, and never resolve anything. Any topic of those types posted in this section will be closed by the forum staff. (The reason for this rule is to get people to put some thought into their posts, and not ask some unclarified "what is best?" type of question, or to pit some AV products against each other, then sit back and watch the fun as their fans race to argue with each other.)

For additional clarification on this policy, please see: this post (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=1075796#post1075796) and this post (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=1181007&postcount=9)
