I was about to post that very same question!!

My NAV 2003 is about to come up for renewal - or otherwise.

As I see it (and this is not a commercial) NAV:

Is easy to install and upgrade (though I have heard of others having
problems)
Is easy to use
Auto-Updates virus definitions
Scans e-mails in and out
Will scan individual files
Will (eventually) do a system scan
Has had a good track record of deleting viruses that have been sent to me
Is alleged to work against unknown viruses

Kaspersky complete is about the same price as a NAV upgrade, does all of the
above (I think) and works deeper in the operating system (I don't know
whether that is an advantage or not) does a 'system scan' only on changed
files, and is therefore much quicker, and I believe it can auto-update daily
using small file sizes, so it should be much quicker.

May I ask in what way you are not pleased with NAV 2004?

Peter
