So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

Meh, I used AntiVir a couple of years ago, it isn't bad but I found avast and NOD32 to be vastly superior.

Vastly Superior?!?! C'mon... sounds pretty subjective to me. You got any data to back that up?
I'm all for having an opinion about your favorite software and I'm also all for finding the "gems" within the freeware/open source community. In my experience, AntiVir is one of the better choices available for the average home user.
In addition to providing IT support at work, I also provide a lot of "unofficial" technical assistance for friends and family. I can safely say that I've tried over 12 different antivirus programs... mostly freeware, but also some commercial.
While I personally use ZoneAlarm Security Suite on my home computer, I do use AntiVir on several other computers that I own/maintain. It is easy to install and maintain, has a user-friendly interface, and does what it is supposed to do effectively.
So, while I agree that there are other good free antivirus programs out there (Avast and NOD32 among them), I think it is probably an overstatement to say that they are "vastly superior." Just my two cents...

I found AntiVir to be a very good choice. So far it has protected me and a lot of friends and family. I've tried some other choice and they all have given me some headaches because my "clients" didn't know how to use and update them correctly. AntiVir has given me a good choice and a lot of free time. ;-)

AntiVir is really a very good choice for the house! Probably, rather trustworthy...

"One of the features I like the best is the real-time system protection" ..heh you sound like you've never used an anti-virus before! RT protection has been around since DOS days.
Anyway, NOD32 0wnz.

I use it since two years ago and never let me down. I've also installed it in a few computers and keep going.
It may not be the best but it dows the job ...
