I recently grabbed a copy of the corprate edition of norton anti-virus, and it seems to be alot better then Norton 2006, 2005, or 2004. Reminds me of the old days, back when Norton was actully good.
Anyone else know anything about Corprate Edition? I know that it's got extreamly low resource usage(extreamly important for me), but just woundering if anyone knows anything else about it?

AV software is the Wrong Thing. It does not solve the virus problem. Use an OS that does not execute any old piece of code it finds lying around.

You aren't in charge of anything serious, are you? Even in Linux, a malicious program could modify another providing it has write permission. If it's a script virus/trojan, even easier. This works for any OS.
The OS should assume everything is bad and refuse to let it run unless proven otherwise. Trying to maintain a list of bad things and check to see if a given program is on the list is self defeating.

This is for my Gaming rig. I use Linux on my web developer rig.
And I know Norton has/is AIDS, which suprises me when I installed Corprate edition. As far as I can tell, it's AIDS free

Yeah - same solid engine/definitions, none of the horrific bloat. It's sad that consumer Norton is, at its core, one of the best anti-virus programs out there, but is encumbered with so much unnecessary shit. Symantec Corporate FTW.
