i'll give it another try. i would usually go with nod or kav, but the latest releases of these clogged up any install/burn things i would be doing. just crazy. so you weren't put off by the 481 megs plus the 13+ for symantec update (495 megs...)? i get a little over two bars on boot. i'll keep an eye on that...

NOD32 all the way

About

It ain't all that bad once you have it configured properly. Threatsense, HTTP checking, Scan on boot/shutdown, Scan on file creation & network - All disabled.

Used it for years, full copy on my server (latest)

LOL...Why do I suddenly feel like I'm going to be doing a 3 way AV comparison on WS2k08??? Good thing I have a fresh install image of ws2k08 cuz unless things have changed once Symantec pollutes your registry, it stays polluted after the uninstall.

it still don't like me... maybe it "nod-ed" off?

hey wfo, have you tried the hyper-v? the symantec didnt work out: another 20+ minutes and still no updated defs. nod, here i come!

[m.oreilly]

hehe, nod32 version 2 is up and running, and NO lag! hehe. it prompted for server acceptance (disable "imon"), and installed and is updating, albeit a bit faster than symantec...hahaha. this is the "good" version of nod (x64): no bloat
edit: the system boots as if there is no av installed: in other words, very fast. this is what i wanted: nod (previous version, non multi), and it to work in server.

I will soon feel the love of 2008...ahh, i can't wait. It will be a great learning experience for me when i start running a server.

Ummm...whats hyper -v??? I thought about Clamwin but it has no real time protection. I do like visiting the darker side of the net on occasion so that is a must.

I'm currently in Vista because my virtual machines kept locking up in Server despite backing off the clock 150mhz. They have been stable all day since the switch back.. I'll probably have to reinstall the virtual OS' in Server instead of using the ones installed when in Vista. I want my quad running at least 3.6.
