Free Antivirus For Commercial Use

[CLC]

We all know Microsoft security essentials has fallen off of late, it has in my opinion anyway. I'm looking into other free antivirus for businesses and here is what I have so far. If you have used these or have one to add please chime in.

Comodo Internet Security Free
Comodo Antivrius Free
Immunet free Antivirus
NANO AntiVirus
UnThreat Antivirus

Also looks like comodo Firewall is OK for commercial use also.

I have had nothing but grief uninstalling anything by Comodo.

Fortinet had one...used to be free for biz and even supported Windows Server.

Anything you find...please add them to the end of this thread and I'll update the thread. Better to keep as much info in just one thread.

Add me to the list with Comodo being a royal pain. I've tried the security suite in the past and did not like how it worked out.

While MSE may have fallen behind the game in a business that is your last line of defense if you have a good hardware firewall which is well configured and if it additionally has and supports gateway antivirus I would say MSE would still be a viable option.

Yeah I remember trying that last year....while Comodo has some decent free software, their antivirus would rarely update. It's like the update servers for the free version were hosted on dial up. Took days til one update completed.

Scratch MSE off of your list:

Yeah someone linked to the parent of that article in another thread.
However..."performance" of MSE is another discussion, it's still one of the few that is licensed for businesses of 10 or fewer computers.
