yes you have to pay for it but it's well worth it

P.S. me uses NOD32 ever since I had to fully uninstall Norton..... 2 and a half hours in the registry *dies*

i went through the same thing with several uninstalls of norton - tried to go back to it, but only ended up with sav 10 corporate working (not much difference in memory load though from what I see) ...

how do you compare NOD32 to the version of norton you were using ?

a new user of nod32. got it a few days ago and has been updating every day since. I previously had avast, and avg before that. I dont usually catch viruses so i cant tell you that nod32 is better that the other two because it hasnt done anything different. But i can tell you that updates are everyday thing at eset.

lol what makes me laugh is when people say they havent had a virus for X amount of time. Well how would yoyu know you havent had a virus if your antivirus software hasn't detected it :pinch:

also is it possible to use another antivirus with NOD32 becuase once i downloaded something which had a virus that NOD32 didnt detect but a-squared did. So i think i need another antivirus just to be completly safe, can anyone reccomend one that works with NOD32? Thanks

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft officially confirmed Windows 11 version 26H2 with the latest build, 26300.8697, for testing in the experimental Insider channel. The company also published more details about it mainly directed towards IT admins and system admins. Essentially version 26H2 will be delivered via an enablement package (eKB) over Windows 11 25H2. If you are wondering about some of the upcoming features in the next Windows version, one of them is certainly very interesting as Microsoft has confirmed it is finally bringing one of the most overwhelmingly requested features ever. March Rogers, the Partner Director of Design at Microsoft, recently highlighted some of the Search improvements that the company is testing, and during the interaction with users on X where he posted it, Rogers also confirmed that the company is working on disabling web search results inside Search. This is something which many users find quite annoying as Windows would often serve them links to Bing which it feels could be more helpful rather than bringing up the actual object or app the user may be searching for on their PC. Finally though the company is prioritizing local file search over the web. However the feature could not be disabled for many users as not all new features are immediately rolled out to everyone. Image via phantomofearth (X) Windows enthusiast phantomofearth who likes to dig deep into new builds uncovered the IDs you will need to enable these features. Using the following feature IDs the new Search-related features landing in Windows 11 26H2 can be used. Follow the steps below to enable the new Search experience on Windows 11 build 26300.8697: Download ViveTool from GitHub and unpack the files in a convenient and easy-to-find folder. Press Win + X and select Terminal (Admin). Switch Windows Terminal to the Command Prompt profile with the Ctrl + Shift + 2 shortcut or by clicking the arrow-down button at the top of the window. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id: and press Enter. Restart your computer. If you change your mind and want to restore, repeat the steps above and replace /enable with /disable in the commands on steps 5 and 6. Delightedly and perhaps also expectedly, once you disable web search and other such bloat, the Windows 11 Search is said to get snappier as remarked by another Windows enthusiast Xeno.
