I tried this AV program after reading some of the reviews about it which mentioned its less memory usage which really interested me. Previously I was using kaspersky AV.
Just yesterday I downloaded a file and it was auto scanned by nod32, when i ran that file my pc got infected with the virus/worm which makes the pc keep restarting with the msg that its gonna shutdown in 60secs. I couldn't believe nod couldn't detect something as big as that! After cleaning my system with mcafee stinger i again downloaded the same file to see if nod couldn't just detect the virus at all, so without running that file i just manually scanned it n again it failed to detect any threats from it even with the 'advanced heuristics' option n other similar ones checked!..
Which is y i'm rating it a 1 coz its only good for its less memory usage but not detection methods, i can still fwd that file to anyone to prove it and i've now switched back to KAV, atleast its completely safe regardless of the memory usage..

an easy way to crash winamp 3.x is to click open the file open box and select a file and enqueue it and press cancel.. this bug is'nt fixed since the first release of 3.x i tested till the last ones.. so i m gonna stick with 2.x for the time being.. wonder y they still did'nt notice this bug ..

It should have a better interface which I guess it'd anyways. Also better themes support, themes like the ones which programs like stylexp have, not the conventional kind of ms plus.
