cookiegal summed it up perfectly! When you have one A-V ( that too in real-time), where is the need to have another? That way,any number of A-Vs will not satisfy the security paranoids! I'll stick to my KIS2009, thank you! If a straw poll is taken among the TSG members, the single A-V users will be in a vast majority and for good reason too!
