    "not the best"

    February 18, 2012  |   By great_est

    Version: ESET NOD32 Antivirus 5 5.0.95

    Pros

    it doesn't detect all the kinds of viruses when compared to other antivirus .

    Cons

    it is the fastest but not the best

    Summary

    it can only be used for a home user who uses pc for basic
    and not at all for the professional. if u r running a business then u need a bit bigger and better than eset nod32

    "The VERY best out there!"

    February 1, 2012  |   By f01m01k50

    Version: ESET NOD32 Antivirus 5 5.0.95

    Pros

    This AV catches what none of the others do, or maybe, can.

    Cons

    The interface could be a bit easier, but that is a small thing.

    Summary

    I asked a computer security expert friend of mine what to use. He aid without hesitation, ESET.

    Why, because it catches things others do not, time after time.

    If that is what you want in an AV, then this is what you want.

    "Very good detection rate but concerning low at updates"

    January 25, 2012  |   By Danne_Mannen

    Version: ESET NOD32 Antivirus 5 5.0.95

    Pros

    In my test Nod32 was able to detect about 94.2% of all malware I trow at it..and with HIPS tweaked it detected about 95.8%
    Very good but I expected higher detection rate as its the leader in VB100% award test!

    Cons

    Well..if you go to http://go.eset.com/us/threat-center/threatsense-updates you will notis that Eset relese updates 2-3 times a day
    with about 50-150 new defenitions in each update which in my opinion
    is very low..

    Summary

    Very good detection rate and good behavior blocking but concerning low at updates

    January 1, 2012  |   By dwensch

    Version: ESET NOD32 Antivirus 5 5.0.95

    Pros

    clean, very low resources, detects everything, allot of settings to customize

    Cons

    the iRobot guy? looks stupid imo

    Summary

    i'm using NOD32 since version 2.5 on XP and that's about 7 years! In all that years i never had any virus! But i did had some spyware but thats logical because it's a AV

    "Effective antivirus"

    December 22, 2011  |   By toofastview

    Version: ESET NOD32 Antivirus 5 5.0.95

    Pros

    The fastest antivirus
    Works fast
    Doesn't crash my computer (unlike bitdefender)
    No errors in updating (unlike Norton)
    Removed virus Norton missed

    Cons

    User interface is pretty complicated to navigate

    Summary

    This antivirus is suited for consumers like me, and is the most effective antivirus I've used (followed by Norton, but a bit behind) Recommended for everyday use.
