Re: [amibroker] OT: PC security / Virus protection

["Steve Dugas" <sjdugas@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi - On one computer, I have been thinking about replacing Norton with all the free stuff - AVG, ZoneAlarn firewall, etc. But then I would lose my password manager also, so was wondering if anyone can recommend a good password manager that is free...something like RoboForm...thanks!

2.   AVG free (problems with 8.0 my husband hears) by Grisoft. 

 

I once had a computer that I could not get onto the local network, couldn't get onto the Internet, etc.  Norton and McAfee both said I had no problems.

 

AVG found 669 files that were corrupted by a Trojan Horse/Worm back in 2003.

 

Ever since I've had AVG )now have a paid for license ($101.00 and change for 2 years x 5 machines) so download is automatic and updates are as well) I've not been sick at all.

 

Friend of mine couldn't get on the Internet, told her she had a virus/worm and I dowloaded AVG free 7.0 onto a flash drive/memory stick thing, she installed it on her computer, it found a worm, fixed it and now she's up and running again.

Using XP Pro, my email client (Outlook Express) is working intermittently and IE 7 is very sluggish. I expect the email problems are caused by IE7.

 

I have had some issues with my virus software and email before .... and recently noticed in Consumer Repoerts it was rated quite poorly. I am using Computer Associates software (It's free, but maybe that's all its worth).

 

Two questions:

1. Has anyone notices sluggish / slow opration of IE7 that you can attribute to antivirus?

 

2. Any recommendation for Secirity software?

 

 

Thanks
