I would choose Norton AV over anything else any day of the week.  At
Ingraham, I install Nortons AV on any machine that has a license for it and
Command AV on all else.  I do know that NAV 2000 has worked for me.  I have
no information pro or con on Command AV.
Well, actually, I do have a little experience with Command AV.  Or,
actually, with its predecessor, "f-prot".  Some people thought that
"f-prot" was great and installed it all over.  I found that it missed some
viruses and even worse, it interferred with some of our most used software.
 With "f-prot" running, MicroTypePro literally took 5-10 minutes to start
up.  With this background, I feel that the newer version is "better than
nothing" if it no longer has the bad habits of its predecesor.
