Hi
I believe NOD32 is the best ITW AV. I would like to know which others are regarded as also being very good ITW AVs for me to compare.
I believe if you are running an AV that is more of a specialised ITW one then you also need to be running an AT as well where as others you don't. Correct?
Thx.

If you are asking, if one should use an AT as well as AV, then yes, I believe so.
The AT, should compliment the AV, catching, Trojans, the AV misses, I use an AT as a backup, to my AV.
I use McAfee and TrojanHunter, both work well together, and compliment each other.

Nearly all av programs get 100% ITW rates these days. But it is true: it looks like NOD32 is perfect in that discipline. :)

Not necessarily. If an av program is able to deal with (backdoor-) trojans depends mainly on the quality of the unpacking engine. IMHO only McAfee and all KAV-based (F-Secure, AVK, ...) av programs are worth to be considered as real good trojan protection as well.
