Recomendations come from the Swedish consumer information service (radron AT konsumentverket DOT se, www.radron.se). They publish a thin mag (in Swedish) ten times a year - containing product tests and such. The March 2003 issue had a test on antivirus and firewall software. a) and b) were the best firewalls according to the test, where b) got a slightly better grade on IP-blocking. Beating 'McAfee Internet Security 5' and 'Norton Internet Security 2003' slightly in firewalling; among other things - on speed. The same test selected Kaspersky Antivirus Titanium, www.kaspersky.com as the prime antivirus software, with 100% grades all over (11 grades), except for user friendliness (grade 4 out of 5, the same as the rest of the pack). 675 SEK -> 675/9.25 for USD. /Hannu E K Nevalainen, Mariefred, Sweden --END OF MESSAGE-- -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
