Antivirus Software and Disk Defragmentation

Overview Want to speed up your antivirus scans? After years of anecdotal data from Diskeeper customers about the reduction in virus-scan times attributed to defragmentation, Diskeeper Corporation decided to investigate. They tested the four antivirus software packages that make up 90 percent of the market. After testing on different system configurations, they found major improvements in scan times -- as high as 61 percent. Download this white paper and see how much faster your antivirus software should be running.
