Re: [amibroker] Advice Needed

["Al Venosa" <advenosa@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've been very pleased with the free AVG anti-virus program obtainable at 
www.grisoft.com. When I got infected with 
the Sven virus a few months ago, AVG had a fix a full day before Norton and 
McAfee had it. It seems to do an excellent job of catching viruses, and the nice 
thing, it is free. However, the most recent issue of PC World found the AVG Pro 
version (the one you pay for) to be very inferior to other antivirus programs on 
the market. Confusing. Anyone else have any problems with AVG?

  I probably can't give you the best advice 
  concerning what the best choice is at the moment agree about Symantec ....... 
  I had enough of Symantec / Norton as well. It 
  is IMPOSSIBLE to get ANY communication going to get help with their stuff. I 
  had a major crash on one of my machines when I put XP on top of Windows 2000. 
  I just formatted the drive and therefor I lost my Symantec stuff. Now I can't 
  get it back because nobody in this damned firm can be reached to help me 
  with this problem. Since I upgraded their program from their page. I have no 
  stuff on disk.
   
  So I gave up on them. This piece of shit company 
  will go bancrupt for sure the way they treat clients. Never again for 
  me. Short SYMC!!! Now I use the Zonealarm free firewall and I got a Virus 
  Scanner from McAfee (borrowed). Also I use free Spybot and Adaware to get rid 
  of other pests,

    Hello,We all know how important online security 
    is (firewalls and anti virus software), especially for 
    traders.Yesterday I used the Windows XP updater, then the Norton 
    updater and now my Norton firewall slows my hi speed cable connection 
    down to a crawl.When I disable Norton internet securities 
    firewall, I am back up to blazing speed.Although Symantec 
    usually issues an update several days after problems occur, I have had 
    enough with Symantec!Can people provide recommendations as to which 
    anti virus and firewalls they use. I know some here use the Free 
    versions of AVG and Zone alarm, are they a good choice compared to 
    Norton Internet 
    Security?ThanksJimSend BUG
