I used it before but then with the Panda AV/FW. Was pretty satisfied with it. Lot of tools and options and having no probs with it.

Cheaper option that has both KAV and KAH is Defender Pro;

You can obtain this for $10 and it includes KAV 5. http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=54222

For this cheap price you are probably limited to definitions updates and no engine upgrades. But still worth a look at!

I could pickup McAfee 7 for $5. Excellent detection. Lighter load on the PC.

Blackcat and nod32,

System Mechanic Pro is more than just an AV as you can see here:

Thanks for your answers. I appreciated your advice and links.

System mechanic pro is one of the best suites available. I guess the updated KAH is included too...impressive

I use Nod32 for virus but I am wondering how the application mover works and would it help me if I wanted to move my Program Files folder to another partition?
