Product name
ESET NOD32 Antivirus 7.0.317.4
Pros
  • - Excellent detection rate
    - Clean and simple UI
    - Light on system resources
    - Live Grid is a great feature (file reputation)
    - Install and forget
    - Also, very configurable for more advanced users
    - No browsing slowdown
    - HIPS is good and silent
    - Fast scan times
CONS
- Phising protection not very good
- Some times system stops responding when detecting viruses
- Updates take a lot of bandwidth
BOTTOM LINE
It is a great antivirus solution.. Its detection rate is one of the best I've ever seen.. Its anti-phising protection was not so good in my tests, but, overall, it's a very good product and highly recommended

I've been testing ESET for about 20 days in my system.
In the last 5-6 days, I've been testing it in a virtual environment with malware packs and malicious URLs.
My review regards both situations.
Overall, it is great, although I'd suggest ESET Smart Security.
Thanks for reading.
 
thanks for your review! I have also tested 30 days on my system ... it's one of my favorites... ;)
