    Oh , dear , it seems you don't understand business practises . What would happen if all Symantec employees were honest - I guess Symantec wouldn't be number 1 in sales then :p

    I find it very hard to see how such glaringly obvious bugs were missed then, like Outlook Express quitting out on launch, i tried NOD 3 on 6 different setups all running XP Pro and all suffered from the dreaded "BING" bug on launch.
    I even tried it on a cleanly just installed Test machine with no extras running and again it failed, later i discovered read reciepts couldnt be sent, and that account names in sent items were missing, what i'm saying here is, if i could find all this in less than a day, how come after all the rigorous testing eset put in, none of these (now admitted by eset) bugs didnt come to light. ? Doesnt make any sense to me.

    Symantec is good at sucking up to Microshaft and all the big name computer makers.

    Go here: http://www.techdirt.com/ and read up on what big business is up to. It's amazing how greed rules the world.

    That quote was nothing but one man's opinion.

    I'm sorry I seriously doubt that there's any credibility to that story, seems a bit of a stretch...

    That isn't astounding at all. Based on my brief* experience with ESS RC1, I couldn't believe they were even considering it a release candidate. And some of the issues I mentioned were totally ignored.

    * Brief, because I didn't need much time to determine that the software was too buggy to continue using.
