Is anyone familiar with -- <<--This Free Virus Protection Program?-->> (http://www.grisoft.com/html/us_techn.htm?session=2f74d4de7227569f6f6336103a2b9ff0)

I never have heard about them before so not sure wether or not to recommend it.

I have virus filtering with my ISP and I have Norton on my system so I have no use for it.

But I have several friends who don't have anything at all.
