Re: Discounts on software...
I stick to Free.avg.com
Been using AVG on all my machines for the last 5 or so years, Free and cant complain.
Re: Discounts on software...
OK, I need to chime in here.... >:)
I have used Norton AV (NAV) and Norton Systemworks on previous systems for many years. Currently, I use AVG for Anti-Virus and Agnitum's Outpost for my Firewall.
NAV is still the De Facto standard for Virus protection. AVG is essentially as good as NAV but has one annoying difference, it is VERY intrusive of internet use. Much more so than there needs to be.
Edit: Had a two paragraph+ dissertation going. All gone now so you guys are save :P
NAV = Really Good
Anything else Norton = Not worth the money IMHO.
Norton's Firewall < Agnitum's Outpost
Norton's Windoctor < CCleaner
Norton's SpeedDisk (Not updated for Vista/Win7) > Auslogics Disk DeFrag (But works on Vista/Win7)
Norton's Clean Sweep and the other Utils </= Equivalent Free stuff on the net.
Re: Discounts on software...
i have used NOD32 for YEARS and have no problems with it at all....
Norton gave me all kinda problems with gaming and such and gave up on it quik.
Mcafee worked ok but NOD32 so far has been the best i have used in years.
have used it so long now cant tell ya how long its been lol....
on my Cruncher only machines(not in use right now) :( they are all AVG or
AVAST which is also a FREE Antivirus program which has performed just as well
as AVG :)
