I have just had 2 systems that I had to clean up ( again) that are 
running Avira. BOTH users continue to use IE for a browser, they won't 
use Firefox.  The one system had a W32/Blaster virus & had incredimail 
installed, and 2-3 IE browser toolbars added & the home page hijacked. 
The other system still has his browser hijacked ( I think it is a proxy 
setting..)
both systems were cleaned using the f-secure rescue CD.
I can't get either to change to Linux. One is a business user that has 
too many specialized apps+Quickbooks.
He is our local Winery, Boutier Winery in Commerce ( actually outside of 
Ila,GA in case you want to visit:)
