Our IT person is due to arrive in our office shortly. I would like to show him your opinions about these two free antivirus downloads.

Please give me your recommendations and opinions.

Thank you,

Have a look Here

Click 'online results' and then 'Feb.& May' results.This site is widely considered even by the antivirus companies the most legit independent testing site.In both tests, 'Antivir' is the clear winner.While this info should be an important part of the decision process, it shouldn't be the only factor.Sometimes there are software conflicts, some AV's run great, some not so i would recommend installing both on a few computers and see for yourself which one works the best on your systems.
