Is it good, is it betther than Norton or McAffe?

I use it and recommend it. Very small footprint on system requirements.
Around $20 per-year for subscriptions. I've also starting referring folks
to NOD32 as a good, comprehensive AV solution. At a minimum you
could use AVG Free which provides basic AV protection.

My company has been using the "open-license" version of eTrust anti-virus.
Very small "memory" usage and is very fast to use. Does all what the other
two (Norton and McAfee) do but does not slow down the PC with the "default"
file scanning of "all file types!"
It's a keeper!!!

Well let's put it this way. I never trust anything that leads off with "e."
Not even eBay and definitely not eTrust.

I've been using it for a year (they let you use it for free) and it works
fine. The virus scanning is quick and the virus definitions are small in size
(about 2MB).
However, I'm not sure about their product support policy and the manual
updates for the virus definition files as they are nowhere to be found. It
was very difficult to idedntify the product type to match the virus
definitions file too..

Yes, it is better then both of the above. Still, one can use free
anti-virus programs and achieve the same results.

I've been using it for two years and like it a lot. It automatically
checks for updates daily, and doesn't slow down my machine like my
previous antivirus did (which was Norton).

It serves the purpose, and the free version is worth the price.
AVG is another good one, also free. You can't beat the price for
either one, and you don't have to pay for an anti-virus program,
either of these will do a nice job.
But, I've seen several recent problems with eTrust that I've never
seen before. They have a 1315kb download that would download
but not install. I uninstalled that version of eTrust, installed a new
one, and lo and behold, the same download would download nicely
but not install. It always gave a fatal error, see download log. Tried
it on another PC, same result. Contacted eTrust by online chat and
their answer was that their server may have corrupted the download.
Whatever. A few days later that download corrected itself and all is
well for now.
