Most of the consumer friendly antivirus software programs available today fall a little short when it comes to prevention of virus attacks. For $25 to $50 one gets an antivirus program that tells the user that there is an intruder ALREADY in the house. It would be nice if the program stopped the virus at the front door. By the time the user gets word that there is a virus on board, the virus has already started its black magic and getting rid of it turns into a major job. And one can't depend on one progam alone. You need another one to find those viruses that the first one missed.
