windower virus (false positive)

I personally like norton 360

Do you happen to work in retail?

Has anyone tried:

Any thoughts?

I've been testing this on another rig since it was released and I have to say I'm pleasently surprised. It's doing just as well as AVG Free in terms of protection and a little less needy on the system resources.

kapersky, AVG, or nod32

personally, kapersky > all

According to Awil, there was a big huge false positive issue that may have had to do with this that was fixed as of this morning.

I also got VERY minorly hit by this; it thought Izarc, a free fan monitoring/temperature monitoring program I sometimes use (I have had some overheat issues in the past, I think I finally solved them *knocks on wood), and Skype had viruses in them day before yesterday >< I managed to get Avast! to leave them alone by canceling, so my programs are fine, tho I did uninstall Izarc and switch to Peazip for a bit.

One of these days I'm gonna switch to nod32 if I can ever get the money. One of these days...

Anyway, I can't say if they fixed windower false positive; I don't use unofficial windower myself. (I only use the official windowed mode.) Maybe someone who uses unofficial windower can check this?
