    Nod is amazing, I get the locked files when I scan. but Ive had it on my pc since I got it and it keeps the pc clean. Other av programmes cant see any viruses etc.

    As a side.. Ive recently downloaded a freeware firewall. Its called comodo, I like it a lot

    yea comodo is considered to be a pretty good firewall.
    i prefer kaspersky internet security myself for all my security needs, expensive though
