I have been trying to get intouch with NOD32 support just to ask a simple question but the contacts page is displaying an error, so I thought as a few people on here use it they may know.

At the moment I am running a 30 day trial of the security software, when I purchase it at the end of the trial and use it on my current computer can I migrate the software and license over to my new build?

 

cool, cheers. That's all I needed to know.

 

Yep, the NOD32 license is linked to your account and not your machine. This gives you the freedom to install it on any machine one at a time.

 

Sounds good then.

Another question: How is it that NOD32 uses very little resources where as other AV/security software use loads is it just down to better code?

 

Probably, and it doesn't have 100 useless features like some other well known brands.

 

it does seem as if it put together well, and does what you want. I have had some security software in the past that seem to forget the permissions etc but this doesn't so I am happy.

 

Nortons was the worst for me, that sucked more than anything that has sucked before. It will never grace a PC that I own ever again.

 

lol, make sure the test PC isn't really needed. The version I had was hardly supposed to run a lot resources but the cpu was always running high. This new one will probably blow it up, I'll stick with NOD32

 

I suppose it's like anything, for example Nvidia make better GPUs but ATi are quickly catching up, or AMD used to be the best CPUs for gaming now it's Intel.

 

I've used NOD32 in the past and I really like it but at the same time I really like Kaspersky. I know that Kaspersky is tough on resources but it's still a great antivirus. It that it takes a little longer to log in, but after that the computer runs fine even when I play games. I bought a one year license so maybe I will switch to NOD32 somewhere down the line but for now I can't really complain.

 

Because it is written in assembly language. This means that the code only uses the resources absolutely necessary, is very small and very fast.

 

I have never used Kasperky AV but have heard good things about it.

 

Ah right assembly language, my second most hated of all programming languages C++ being the first. I could never get my head around either.

props to anyone who can do it.

 

Thanks.

 

No probs, I just wish I could I just can't.
