Panda Antivirus Beta

Panda Software is running a public beta/promotion program for the upcoming version of their antivirus products, and once again offering a prize draw for everyone who submits any incidents.

I tested the 2006 version, but decided to try a few other solutions before buying, but I am pretty sure I will switch to Panda after this test. I just ran the first full system scan, and it chewed through four volumes containing about 220GB/450 000 files in 30 minutes, without any notable impact on system performance. Using earlier version I have been able to work in Photoshop and play games during scans, and that is not the case with many other AV solutions. Easy to use as well, without being bloated like Norton and similar. Worth checking out.
