Good Points
It has too many good points to mention. One of the VERY nice points is the SCHEDULE BOOT TIME SCAN. It scans your system before there can be ANY sharing violation problems which will prevent the antivirus software to fix/delete the file. Another good point is the option to DELETE FILE WITH NEXT RESTART IF NEEDED. It does what it says, it marks a file for deletion when your pc is rebooted. It also alerts me when a virus has been detected on a client's pc. It is free for home-users.
Bad Points
After testing several Antivirii (including Sophos, NAV, E-Trust, AVG and a few smaller free ones mostly) I couldn't find any.
