    I think I will just remove ZA and Norton though.

    Always used ZA like, never had any bother with it, does the job!

    Well i'm definately not going back to Norton, AVG has picked up 3 Trojans, almost finished the scan.

    It's considerably slower than Norton mind!

    At least it actually finds stuff!!

    Proof that even a geek like me can be caught out :lol:

    Suck it!!! Suck it!!!

    Na na na naa na!!

    Oh dear...


    PC-Cillin - the real-time version of housecall :up: If you've just bought a mobo it's free :D

    Panda's alreet, but the price is too much... Only go for titanium, and even then it's a little bitch that loves to suck it.

    I thought the same, until I actually ran a different program.

    Seriously - I have got rid of Norton now and I am now using AVG.

    Its FREE and does a better job than Norton AV :eek:

    Get it :up:

    By the way...

    Does AVG have the real time Virus alerts if a Virus is detected?

    Or is it only a find-on-scan type thing?

    Anyone got a link for a what i need, tbh i find it a nighmare knowing what to go for with these. It patters on about people who have bought it etc so i asume if you's are getting it for free then there's a secret way of getting it :lol:

    Is AVG a virus checker and firewall, just like Norton IS 2005 but better?
