Well, it wouldn't surprise me were it just the UK getting shafted. It
probably takes an extra day or two to get across the channel!

it's always the Wednesday morning when I get the notice <g>

I noticed in Auhma this morning you mentioned using it, I have had it over
a year now, felt quilty about using eTrust on mine and Johns machine so
decided on NOD32 and love it updates come in most every day sometimes more
than once. I know it's not the cheapest but I'm happy to pay the price for
something that does a good job and isn't full of bloatware like some I
won't mention<g>

The AumHa Forums link, to which you refer;
<http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=15856>

NOD32 is definitely *not* bloatware (emphasis) <g>
Was too used to NAV's UI, took me a bit until I was comfortable that I had
it correctly configured. Some test viruses proved that it worked.
**(Proceed at your own risk)**

As for price, less than NAV and many others.
$39 US dollars is inexpensive, IMO, for such an A-V.

Silj
