    It's still on my computer. Wasn't in the mood to uninstall again. There are things that I do like about eTrust v.7, and some things that I don't. One of the dislike is, I scheduled a system scan and when the start time arrived, I couldn't tell if the scan was running. Only when I tried to edit the schedule for a different time, was I told the scan was in progress. It would be nice if the GUI popped up while the scan was in progress.

    I also found out that there is no tech support for this product. I sent an e-mail to tech support about the RTM problem only to receive a reply stating they only their support EZ product. I guess I can't complain too much about that. After all the AV is free.

    I hope I don't sound like I'm bashing the product. I'm not. Just a few coments.

    Can anyone who is using eTrust v.7 promo please let me know if it's adding stuff to NTFS datastreams of all files (as mentioned in >> this << thread).

    Thank you.

    Im glad you are giving it a good try out . Regarding the scheduled scanning If you Launch the e trust anti virus then click on "schedule job statistics " the tab under "help" and next to the blue real time monitor icon up the top left . it will display the scanning statistics whilst the schedule scan is scanning . I just do manual scans and alternate between vet and innoculateIT. I usually keep vet as real time monitor. I have activated the heuristics for both real time monitor and the on access scanner . keep us up to date with how you find things . As although there is not support officially there is an amazing resource library that you can access at CA associates which covers most things . But really once you have tuned it into your needs it just flows effortlessly along with out any hassles at all . Just daily updates ( which should by default be automatic )

    I feel better with this AV as time goes on!!!. very very good, and updates everyday. Good detections with vet scanning on access and inoculate scanning on demand.
