NOD32 or McAfee?

[RedFlow]

Please post which is better and why. I need to convince my step-dad about facts from each.

NOD32 as it uses less resources and has a higher detection rate.

NOD32 uses way less resources. I haven't used McAfee for a while. I can't remember why I stopped using it, but it was a good enough reason for me to know I'll never use it again.

NOD32

WAY less resources then McAfee. Also, V3 IMO is much bulkier then 2.6 but it's your choice. Progress means more resources I guess.

Yeah that sums it up perfectly. And the soon to be released version 3 of NOD32 is far less confusing generally.

Nod, just tell him to wait till after the 5th if you want the newest version :p

[DaViD_BRaNDoN]

NOD32 without a doubt - as you can see from the poll 13 NOD32 vs 0 McAfee!

Nod32, because It works and have a little memory foot print.

nod32,mcafee is just too big and clunky while nod32 excells at everything.

[Zoom7000]

NOD32 hands down. First round knockout! :p

[mattnotley2004]

NOD32 for sure! no more needs to be said.

It's fast, simple to use, has the top detection rates against all other AV competitors.

NOD32! McAfee sucks, so yeah, as people have said above, no more needs to be said. You can't even compare the two, NOD32 is SO far ahead!

NOD32 just released v3 which has been greatly optimized and improved form an already great product. I didn't think resource usage could go any lower but it definitely has. I also hear that the engine has been updated significantly to deal with today's new type of attacks. It's a great AV.

Thanks for all the great input guys! I hope that I can convince my step-dad now!

[JorgeIvan]

I vote for NOD32 because it does the job, easy to use, simple interface and its super light.

Nod32, If your trying to convince your step-dad then just show home some of the many AV test labs.
