Re: Anti virus

Norton is to anti-sypware as.. McDonald's is to your health.


I use a combination of AVG (for spyware), ZoneAlarm (for firewall), AdAware (for deep, long scans) and Firefox (for internet protection against popups/etc). Really though, nothing can help more than some good common sense, i.e. not downloading things that don't look right (like, what's supposd to be a song but comes up as a .exe), not clicking on pr0n popups, etc.. I load my sister's computer down with so much anti spyware stuff, yet she still gets them from using LimeWire so much and not using common sense while doing it.

Re: Anti virus

I used to have Norton 2006 loaded on my computer.
In June (last year) the computer started to act up. I took it to Best Buy (still under warranty) and they told me it had a major Trojan and that my hard drive would have to be wiped.
I lost allot of data because of that.
I now use PC Cillin.
