Homework help for my son who had a soccer match tonight and then
I dragged him to a town hall meeting with our congressman.

His computer apps teacher wants him to do an assignment listing five antivirus software programs and then list the pro's and con's of each. Can anyone provede a good source please? We are using google and ask jeeves but would really appreciate a quicker turnkey site so we can get some sleep tonight.

Thanks in advance!

1. Google antivirus + compare ...
You'll get sites that do just that.

2. Here are some things ...

http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenreviews.com/

That provides a features-set for various products, which you could turn into something decent fairly quickly I'd think.

http://www.hackfix.org/software/antivirus.html

Short reviews.

http://antivirus.about.com/cs/beforeyoubuy/tp/aatpavwin.htm

More short reviews.

3. I can name three.
McAfee - Runs quickly, and never had a problem with it catching anything. Only downside is that it costs money, $60 a year.

Norton - I never used it, but I hear it is supposed to be pretty good. Some people complain that the program is big and bloated.

AVP - A free anti virus, not the best one, but probably the best free one on the market.
