Have any of you had any experience with the "kinza.exe" virus?? My updated NOD32 with its standard protection could not detect it. It was only when i scanned with full protection in safe mode that it was detected, but by then part of the damage had be done and a few system files had to be deleted. My system is s bit wobbly now.

Nod32 is no doubt the leader of them all. Its performs flawlessly without being a burden on the machine and is reasonably priced . The Threatsense technology gives it the edge over all the other antivirus in the market. But the most attractive feature is its simple uncluttered user interface.
