Hi Terry,
As different AVIs use their own methods and techniques to watch and sweep, whether the do it through an add-in reflects a design
approach decision for a particular product probably more than effectiveness of the method chosen and the particular environment.
I'm guessing that calling the API, loading, releasing, etc takes time
and some of the products that used or looked at using the
hooks that are available through MS Office, IE and others may from time to time hear 'next version' when they ask for improvements
with their MS interactions in that arena

Hi Bob
So by implication, AVs that don't have this 'feature' (like NOD32) are
inferior to those that do?
