I've read here and a few other forums that people are recommend Nod32 v2 (the older one) instead of the newest one, v3.
Any particular reason why people don't seem to like v3? I've been running it and the smart security (free trials) and they both seem pretty good to me.
v3 has some trouble, particularly with large files being written and with P2P applications like BitTorrent. I downgraded to 2.8. NOD32 was all about being lightweight, unobtrusive, and simple. v3, while it added a couple of good features, is seemingly bloated in comparison.

How about v2 vs. v3 Enterprise?
Also, I have been using Nod32 v2 for years. However, I noticed that it hangs onto .exe files. Ex: If you try to cut/copy them to another location it goes slower then normal. Disable Nod32 and it flies. :c(
