i've had very good luck with AVG over the years on several machines, as have several more computer-savvy computer support professionals i know,... i've had awful luck with what Norton (particularly Norton Internet Security) has done to a couple of machines in the family, and don't use it on anything any longer.
have also used Avast! without complaint, and run Ad-Aware occasionally to let it try to find anything that AVG might have missed; it does occasionally, but not often. of course, i don't have any of these problems with my Mac, but i use AVG on the Windows installation that i have in a Virtual Machine in Fusion on the Mac,... cheers! e Curt Raymond wrote: > I know you get what you pay for but I also know the best things in life are > free. > Anybody got a line on free anti-virus?
