Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] good free antivirus for XP?

[Jason Novinger <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Might I also suggest ClamWin.  The interface leaves a bit to be
desired on Windows, but the command line client on Linux (which can
scan any Linux supported filesystem) is just downright powerful.

Having said that.  I generally recommend AVG for friends and family.
It seems to stay up to date, is fairly intuitive, and full featured.

Good luck!
