Not surprising that a jackass would have herpes. Those animals will fuck anything. Oops - nothing against your wife Justin!

I have absolutely no idea what that is and I work with computers.

I also echo the Norton 360 "why" statement. What a pile of shit that is.

/begin rant
Also, I wasn't trying to start a Mac vs. PC debate...but buying a Mac because "they don't get viruses" is ignorant. I deal with people on an almost daily basis that play the "I bought a Mac because they're better" and they have absolutely no idea they're doing with it, so it isn't "better" at all. Just annoying to me.

It works.

But if you use something free that is better that'll give me antivirus, firewall and other protection I get, by all means, please let me know so that I don't renew this stuff.

AVG will protect you just as much as Norton, and doesn't hog up your computer like Norton does.

I'm going to test out AVG on my mother in law's laptop. She's got some virus on there that's really slowing it down. I've gotten all I can with AMB, but I know there's something else out there.

The new Avast is pretty good. I used AVG for a long time but was swayed by Avast.

You all might want to look into it.

Any of those work better than Norton while using less system resources and not bugging you about upgrading and all that bs.

I personally use Microsoft Security Essentials and love it about as much as you can love an antivirus. But Avast! is also excellent and I've used it before.
