I have been useing and recommending CA for years until now (April 2009)CA seems to be losing it's touch, In the last 2 months I have had several systems with CA Antivirus get viruses. I am switching all my customers to Norton 2009, It detected the viruses CA missed and finds them as soon as you open the folder not just when you access the file!!!

I have CA eTrust Antivirus. It just works... that is, I don't notice it slowing the PC down ala McAfee. However, the other day I noticed that it hasn't updated since the middle of March. But it acts like it is updating. What the heck? Did a MS update break something? Or did I break something? I have tried changing the FTP folder, same results or it says it is missing "Siglist.txt".

I have 3 XP and 1 Win98 boxes. CA is on 2 XP and Win98. The 3rd machine is running naked. Everything is behind the router. I have not touched the other XP box beyond checking the dates of updates.

I would like to fix this. If it's time to buy a new copy of the software, I'm OK with that. But I don't know.... I'm not finding anything on the CA site and Google, well, it's Google and links to forums of folks complaining are not very useful.
