You should ask such a question in a virus News Group.

microsoft.public.security.virus
alt.comp.virus
alt.comp.anti-virus

I would NOT recomend The Shield Pro ! It has zero following in alt.comp.virus and it has a
small library. ~33,000 even ClamAV which is junk has more. Good AV software should be 2.5
to 5 times that size.

AVG v7.x is a better choice. CA eTrust is even better than AVG.
