Hello!
I have done another pool: ESET 2013 vs. Microsoft Security Essentials 2013. In this pool you have only to vote for Interface. I want to know what antivirus product do you like in this criteria!
Thanks for votes, views and replies!

Regarding ESET NOD32, your Con claim appears to me as "non-updated ESET with warez/cracks actively running on PC".

Cons:
If not updated after 2 weeks It will released it's own virus. You will know it when you are experiencing drive icons in your USB FlashDrives even if your laptop/pc never licked a single internet connection ever since.

Unless you have proof of a genuinely activated ESET performing these operations, Please check here in regards to talking about warez.

ESET behaviour is most likely to comodo
They've high False Positive rates & able to detect those bundle inside installers.
Especially those with Opencandy's Bundle when i check files with virus total always detect with ESET

If 1-1 overall ESET win over about detection and firewalls against internet attacks.
But MSE they can use for multiple Antivirus with some other free antivirus.

Amiga, it's more of a question of which GUI you prefer, and not judging a product based on graphical appearance like you're suggesting.

A good protection set-up is MSE and a 'Real-Time' add on like, Emsisoft antimalware using WIN7 firewall. It's simple and free (except $17.00 for Emsisoft) and will block close to 99% malware/viruses. We have been to 'R' and XXX rated sites and MSE and Emsisoft caught all of the them.
Since we did this we added HitMan Pro and Tiny Wall. We tried many set-ups, Avast, Norton, Comodo.... etc and figured out the people who test MSE just post the malware MSE caught, but when testing OTHER anti-virus software the testers add their 'False Positives' to the total to boost the total :)
Oh well, MSE isn't that bad, maybe not the best or biggest with all the fluff, but using just WIN7 firewall, Explorer 10 and an add-on with MSE will keep you safe.
