Re: Anti Virus

I dunno. I like Open Source for a lot of reasons, but don't think it is the end-all be-all either. Great programs like AVG, Utorrent, Maxthon, CCleaner and others seem to do a fine job being free but closed-source. But things like NeoOffice for the Mac would not be possible without Open Office being Open Source, I believe. I'm not going to bash a product just because it's closed source, or praise a product because it is. I think Utorrent is by far a better product than Azureus, for example, even though Azureus is Open Source.

When all is said and done, I'm just happy that we have lots of free apps out there.
