Eset - Virus and Malware security

Nod32 from ESET is our new recommended virus and malware software

Here at Optima, we are seeing more reports of Norton software causing crashes and error on our customers' computers. In many cases the fix is to re-install the software. The concern we have is that if the Norton software has crashed and the customer accesses a compromised website, there is a real chance of getting infected.

To that effect, we have started looking for an alternative and have decided to recommend ESET Nod32. This is a very good product which we feel is better than Norton in protecting you. In fact better all round.
