Hi,

Using Twister for some months now and i think it's a great deal. I use OA++ too (a-squared and Ikarus engines) and they do not conflict at all

Regards,

MaB

I don't use on-access, and just do an on-demand +/- every 2/3 months, or just to make a test...

I'm very happy with Avira Premium,but if I ever change it will be with MSE which I'm testing at the moment with great satisfaction. Free versus free, I think already MSE is preferable to Avira.

AV/Retrospective/Proactive Test Results
http://www.av-comparatives.org/image...c_report22.pdf

Avira was on top of the pack with Microsoft close second Avira has the Fps problem and Microsoft MSE doesn't. So good to see what's going to catch the new crop of malware out there and what's not going to do it. I wish they test everything out there but they don't... I am going to give MSE a test but that lacks a firewall so PC Tools FWP or OA Free might fit the bill...
