carol and Mary, Although I don't have any particular problems with NAV 2004, apart from its excessive use of resources and the feeling that it wants to take over the world, I don't know whether I could face the subscription renewal process again when it becomes necessary later this year. I have tried out a program called NOD32 on a spare machine and found it very accessible with a screen reader, sparing in its use of resources, and apparently you can purchase a subscription on line for 1,2 or more years as preferred in a relatively straightforward way. Just thought it worth mentioning as another option. The details are at www.nod32.com.
