    PKGupta - your sig is way too large - both userbars are over the 50kb limit.

    Joeva - your userbars are way overboard too.

    Fredil - yours need shrinking a tad.


    edit-
    svar91 - seems yours is almost twice the limit.

    venomX05 - doh, yours is a bit oversized too

    According to the latest issue (sept 2007) of Consumer Reports Magazine, the best internet security software is Trend Micro. Here's the complete list from that article:
    (1) Trend Micro ('PC-cillin') Internet Security 2007 (now referred to as "Trend Micro Internet Security 2007")

    (2) Check Point ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite 7.0

    (3) McAfee Total Protection 2007

    (4) McAfee Internet Security Suite 2007

    (5) Microsoft Live OneCare

    (6) BitDefender Internet Security 10

    (7) F-Secure Internet Security 2007

    (8) Symantec Norton 360

    (9) Symantec Norton Internet Security 2007

    I see no reason to pay for virus and spyware protection with so many quality free applications available. My personal favorites:
    Avira's AntiVir PE: http://www.majorgeeks.com/AntiVir_Personal_Edition_7_d955.html Totally Vista and XP compatible
    Spyware Terminator: http://www.majorgeeks.com/Spyware_Terminator_Without_Web_Security_Guard_d5242.html
    Comodo BOClean (anti-malware): http://www.majorgeeks.com/Comodo_BOClean_Anti-Malware_d5616.html
    Browser Hijack Retaliator 4.5 (BHR4.5) : http://www.majorgeeks.com/Browser_Hijack_Retaliator_d4582.html
    Comodo Firewall: http://www.majorgeeks.com/Comodo_Personal_Firewall_d5033.html

    I run all of these on my home PC, and they are all very lite on resources as I see no lag at all. I also regular run CCleaner, Wise Reg Cleaner, NTRegOpt, ASquared, RemoveIT Pro, SUPER AntiSpyware, Diskeeper and/or AusLogics defrags. These programs don't run in the background, and I only use 'em once a week or every two weeks just to keep the PC tuned up and running clean, lean, and mean....

    And, yes, I am a frequent visitor of www.majorgeeks.com (as if the above links didn't tip you off ;) ). Probably my favorite web site, besides AfterDawn of course :D
