With PC Tools AntiVirus you are protected against the most nefarious cyber-threats attempting to gain access to your PC and personal information. Going online without protection against the latest fast-spreading virus and worms, such as Netsky, Mytob, and MyDoom, can result in infections within minutes. That's why PC Tools AntiVirus provides world-leading protection, with rapid database updates, OnGuard real-time protection and comprehensive system scanning to ensure your system remains safe and virus free. PC Tools products are trusted and used by millions of people everyday to protect their home and business computers against online threats.

It is now, since very recently, being offered FREE !

pc tools used to earlier use the kav av engine, but now after v 3.0 onwards, they use the VirusBuster av engine ! *i144.photobucket.com/albums/r168/happyandy/sarcastic.gif

Nice info! :) Reputation points for you! One more free player in this segment adding to the confusion....
BTW, Antivirus page shows "WEST COAST LAB CERTIFICATION", but I don't think so it for antivirus. Certifications are commonly listed as "Company awards". Moreover West Coast Lab certification is shown for Anti Spyware. Any idea about certification for PC Tools AntiVirus 3.1 Free Edition ?
