Re: [OT] Antivirus software

[simonr@xxxxxxx]

Not sure what problems that you are refering to with Norton, but I run it
on all
5 of my machines and I can honestly say I have never had a glitch with it,
whereas I used to run McAfee which imho was as you say buggy and caused
more
crashes and lockups than any one other piece of software. My only problem
with
Norton was installing it on a win2k pro machine with nero, there was some
serious conflict (using corporate edition fixed it tho). So my vote would
be
migrate to norton
