AntiVir is what some people in some parts refer to antivirus as a generic term. I only found that tad bit of info out once when asking why some people spelled it that way.

Still very deceptive though, and it's bound to fool someone.

Of course not to be confused with the great "Avira AntiVir" at www.freeav.com that actually works.
