647032 2008-03-07 01:39:00 The PC has a 2.8 ghz Pentium 4 and 768mb of RAM, it should hum along nicely, but no. Its impossible to use, it took over 10 minutes to boot up to the point I was able to open Paint to save the screenshot!

Thats Nortons 2008 too. So much for it being better. I wanted to get a screenshot of Nortons open saying everythings OK, Anti Virus, Anti Spyware...but the PC would lock up each time I tried to open it!

I'm scanning over the HDD at the moment with Nod32, 17% done, so far found and removed 22 threats. :punk

My thoughts exactly. Oh Trev!!! :banana

P.S. Trev - I'm not being unreasonable or rude, if it works for you, well and good. But now you can see why the rest of us don't like it. ;)

647033 2008-03-07 01:58:00 To be fair just having an antivirus product is no defense against Spyware. We all know you should have a couple, at least, of antispyware apps too. pctek (84)
647034 2008-03-07 02:01:00 Yep, although Nod seems to get rid of it, and Nortons is marketed as an Anti Virus and Anti Spyware app, even says the Anti Spyware status is OK if you open up Nortons on that PC. wratterus (105)
647035 2008-03-07 02:25:00 Nortons is busy :sleep Leave it alone :lol: wainuitech (129)
