    I signed up for this Beta awhile back, and never got around to using it (cuz it's still Beta and I got NIS o5 runnin), but my other ocmputer has NAV 05 only, no firewalls or anything. It came w. Google Pack so I said why not? The question is, is the McAfee reliable?

    of course it's reliable. :) But KAV or NOD32 could give you a better protection.
    NAV 05 it's good but you should better use the first 2 AVs I've listed or upgrade to NAV 2006.

    Total Protection did? Will the Beta stil be ok then to use? Also, NAV 2006, I have heard waits till the virus is on your computer, then you have to scan. It just tells you.

    Should I just go w. AVG Free? Or will the Total Protection Beta still work better?

    NIS 2006 has changed. It now blocks Spyware with the new AutoProtect feature, so you were right but Symantec has fixed that.
