Question Anti Virus that will work with Zone Alarm?

I had AVG, but the licence has just expired. I was going to renew, but for the AV stuff only, it said that support would finish at the end of the year. They were pushing their full package which includes a Firewall, though I've not long paid for an extension for ZA.

Are there any other recommended Anti Virus packages that work with ZA?

I looked at Kapersky, though that doesn't work with ZA.

I know ZA has a freebie AV built in, though I don't entirely trust that. I'd get an AV update from AVG daily, though have had no updates for ZA for over a week now.

NOD 32 every time. No messing about with free AV, go fo proper AV.
AVG is ok, but not great.
NOD32 ticks all the boxes for me, small process usage, regular daily updates, good heuristic scanning.. the list goes on.

I've realised that the support is only ending for older Operating Systems and not the one I'm using

However, NOD32 does look good, and I'll probably be moving across from AVG to that

Good choice. AVG misses a lot of stuff...

Agree with NOD32, and it plays nicely with ZA and ZAP.

Thanks all - have installed the evaluation version of NOD32. Seems to be working okay with ZA.
