When reading reviews of the best antivirus and internet security product or product suite, ESET NOD32, will often be at the top of the list. The users of the product tend to be vocal supporters as well.
Is it justified? Well, it’s hard to stay at the top of the heap when it comes to antivirus security products. Companies have a tendency to leap frog one another as the “latest version” gets released.
When you have an infected PC, it is common to scan and clean with one company’s product, then scan with another company’s scanner and find some more.
Recently I had a users laptop with a nasty trojan infection. One of the top internet security suites was unable to stop the infection, but scanning did find most of the infected files.
However, I then scanned the hard drive with ESET NOD32 and found a few more infected files. Does that mean that ESET is better? Well, maybe; but one of the “infected” files was an executable for the OTHER antivirus product. Was that file infected or just a case of old fashioned rivalry?
I don’t know for sure, but I will say that ESET NOD32 is an impressive internet security suite and antivirus.
The downside is that it does cost a bit more than most of its competitors. But sometimes you pay for quality.
I give ESET NOD32 a big thumbs up; you can check it out with a free 30 day trial here.

I keep hearing about this stuff. Really interesting. I have looked online and found some other blogs that offer some information, but not as much as on this site. Your blog is definitely going in my subscription program!
