Where Did All The Old Timers Go, A Public Meeting Place For Open Discussion

good info Ireland I'm due to renew Norton in 2 months.

The price is 40 Euros. Couldn't find dollar price.

 

don't renew norton guys go with something else

Trend Mirco is a good one also.

but i think Avira has a free version also, right Ireland

 

he just said it was 40 bucks.

 

they have a free version also i think. thats what i met to ask

 

my mistake,its Price overview incl. VAT 39.95 €=53.36

Evenin'.

 

I've never had a problem with AVG, never gotten a bug or a worm, and do the monthly online scans just to make sure..It's funny how one company rates one software program high while others are rate the same one low on another survey. I've used both Norton and Mcafee and had infections in the past. The worst offender though was Computer Associates version of anti-virus internet protection. I'm sticking with AVG for now. (watch me get a virus now that I have jinxed myself)

 

Look what the cat dragged in ;-)

Hey Rav

 

Hello Stranger!

 

For the attention of ireland

 

Good Morning Folks

I just want to add that i got the new NIS 07 at the beginging of the year and 2 months later i got rid of it and used the CD as a drink coaster cause thats what its good for. It will eat your systems resources like the cookie monster

 

cheers

 

@aabbccdd & Ireland
I have used the Free Version of AVIRA for years without problems...I have never used the pay version...I prefer it over Norton...

 

i may go with it instead of renewing my Trend Micro then next year

 

I guess I'm just paranoid about switching; knock on wood, I've never had any problems with Norton. I'm rather of the mind: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". Dumb, I know lol!

good morning everyone!
