Some screenshots of upcoming antiviruses:
Norton Antivirus 2010 Beta
BitDefender 2010
Kaspersky 2010
G Data 2010*
*G Data is a little too ahead of time that 2010 version is released in 2009.
Very good information. Maybe we can start comparing them with avast 5 screenshots in the Evangelists' forum.

That would be interesting... but would you start a new fred or merge it with the existing thread concerning Avast screen shots?
Computer Systems:

Intel Pentium 4 641 / 2GB RAM / Vista Home Basic SP2 / avast! 5.0 Home / SAS Free / MBAM Free / Windows Defender / Windows Firewall / Spyware Blaster/ Secunia PSI / Firefox 3.6 / Opera 10.5

Core2Duo T8300 / 4GB RAM / Vista Home Premium SP2 (32 bit version) / Same Software.

Why not merge? I thought on a post-only, not for discussion, but we can see it now by other angle and discuss there.

I like AutoRuns and Process Explorer but ProcDump is way too technical for me plus I don't have apps that crash that I keep.

Snap, I took one look at the ProcDump page and the words Command Line turned right off, I had enough of DOS and UNIX command line stuff many, many years ago to last me a lifetime. Now I like the easy life and GUI rules ;D

I tend to take the information direct from Alwil, but this one links to the avast blog where the avast 5 is coming is one of the blog entries. http://blog.avast.com/2009/07/20/avast-5-is-coming-soon/.

Yes. But the upgrade price (Pro->Suite) will probably just be a difference between the prices of the two products (I suppose 10 bucks or so...).

Is Your Computer Ready For Windows 7?

If your thinking of upgrading, it's never to early to make sure your current system is ready. :)
