ESET has just released Smart Security 4 and NOD32 4 Release Candidate.
“Release Candidate is a public preview of the product intended for the final testing and feedback before the official stable version is released”
I’ve been using the NOD32 v4 Beta version and so far it’s pretty solid. It will be free at least until the beta is over (which should be in a few months).
NOD32 is my most recommended commercial antivirus after Kaspersky for advanced detection and light on resources.

looks good man; been trialling the beta on a test machine was impressed with it. Though still prefer kapersky to it.
Same here. But my free 6 months Kaspersky License has run out
Hi,
I’m going to recommend this post to my friends. Good information and good writing. Thought even I should share some information with you. Have a look at http://www.translationartwork.com , these guys have mixed art and translation. Unique concept.
Hi,
For gamers this is not recommend. The strict firewall its just annoying! Blocks your network and its back after several minutes. Hope u fix it. Good job on the antivirus and antispyware keep it up
