Does anyone know if you can download a trial version of Command AV for Windows? I've looked around http://www.authentium.com, but it seems you can't try before you buy.
My second question is does CAV have incremental updates for virus definitions?

you can get a trial here (http://www.commandcom.com.au/try/try_before_you_buy.html)
and you can purchase command for $19.95 here (http://www.authentium.com/store/index.cfm)
the updates are not huge like some av's they just load the new defs not the whole thing over and over.

That trial link doesn't work. It sends you to this page where all the links are dead.

Thanks, that's good news.
Unfortunately none of the above links worked - they all want usernames and passwords, i.e. for people who have already paid for Command.
A bizarre approach to marketing, you can trial every other AV. OK, it's only 20 bucks, and I've read good things about it on Wilders, but don't really like the idea of buying sight unseen...

The link in my last post does not ask for a user name and password it supplies one so you can download the trial, when the box comes up (see screen shot) click ok to download the trial.

Um... is there something I'm missing? Because when I click on the OK button, all I get is another box that wants a username and password. So:
Username: homeuser, password: leave blank, result:the box pops up again. Username: homeuser, password: homeuser, result: ditto.
Username: homeuser, password: for ****'s sake work!, result: ditto ad infinitum.

Read carefully this recent thread; http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=43122 from post 20 onwards.
I have just tried the link at Tucows and it immediately downloads to disc.
