I have a great hatred for AOL that dates back to troubleshooting their service over 10 years ago. And besides this comparison is not even valid anymore. AOL sheild is no longer distributed. We're Sorry! AOLŽ Active Virus Shield is no longer available. Looking for protection from viruses, spyware and hackers? We are now offering McAfeeŽ Virus Scan Plus-Special edition from AOL. EWWW MCAFEEEE..JUST AS BAD AS AOL! LOL…I stay away from anything with AOL in it. I have a great hatred for AOL that dates back to troubleshooting their service over 10 years ago.

It's the biggest mistake you can make. Note that NOD32 has <strong>never come in top 5</strong> according to these tests. NOD32 is good for pro users as it offers a lot of options. However, its interface can be terribly confusing for a novice. In AntiVir by default most of the options are hidden. If you switch to expert mode more options are revealed. However, still its much simpler than NOD32. <blockquote>Might want to look at this too NOD 32 yeaa !</blockquote> That is retrospective test - not on demand. As I said NOD32 has one of the best engines. However, it has a relatively weak database. Also, NOD32 was outperformed by AntiVir again.

interface and customizations SUCKS !
