Anthony A Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I found this on another forum. It's a registration to get CA Antivirus for free for one year. I remember reading here that some people really like it. http://home3.ca.com/SubscriptCenter/MSTria...on.aspx?cid=573 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1984 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I used to use that and remember thinking that it was good at the time. Now that I have tried nod32 I'm going to stick with it for awhile, maybe the only other one I will try when my lease runs out on it is Kaspersky. I really like the Kaspersky interface and it has a great detection rate. Nice find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoKenny Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I'll stick with avast! Free on my main system and Avir AntiVir Free on my old PIII and when I have some spare money I probably purchase them.

Moderators Andavari Posted December 18, 2008 Moderators Share Posted December 18, 2008 CA Anti-Virus 2009 isn't bad at all, obviously I've got it installed to make such a statement. Too bad they don't have an everyday free version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corona Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 CA. Is that northern CA or southern CA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted December 18, 2008 Moderators Share Posted December 18, 2008 CA. Is that northern CA or southern CA? CA in this case stands for: Computer Associates Their antivirus updates many times a day, almost too much, and it's more than any other I've used.

Moderators Andavari Posted December 19, 2008 Moderators Share Posted December 19, 2008 Started having some issues with CA Anti-Virus out of nowhere. It started to crash for no apparent reason when initiating a virus scan - so I've went right back to Avast Antivirus which has no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrownSugar Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 AV-Comparatives doesn't rate CA's AV program. I recall reading somewhere that CA won't submit to their testing, and Virus Bulletin's last test summary stated that CA didn't pass (albeit by a small margin). Surprisingly, neither Avira, although it does well with AV-comparatives. http://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/2227328/...-windows-server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
login123 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Early on, CA was just plain free. It was fast and thorough. I went ahead and downloaded this recent offering. Probably won't use it just yet, but is good to have. Spoken...well, typed... like a true "download-a-holic", huh? The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

Moderators Andavari Posted December 25, 2008 Moderators Share Posted December 25, 2008 Early on, CA was just plain free. It was fast and thorough. The old InoculateIT PE is what I used for a good year, that was a damn good little antivirus application that has now morphed into a bloated one.
