The fix isn't exactly obvious, or easy either.

Nod32 sucks as hard as Symantec does.


Enjoying the $hitfight lads, take a break while I ask Ninja a question... ok an observation:

Ninj, you say NOD sucks as hard as Symantic. My experience tells me that NOD32 is way better on so many different levels that it's no contest, and yet, your experience tells you something different. Should you have narrowed your statement down a tad to save all the poor, non-enterprise, souls who now think, after they've just cleaned Symantic crap of themselves, that they've stepped straight into some poo?


As you were :thumbs:

Do the math your-self.

What the stats tell me Rob, is that a much higher percentage of Windows users creep around the net than other OS users combined, so, more Windows users view and download porn?

That would probably be true, but I'd wager that a higer percentage of linux users download porn than users of any other OS.

The stats say different % wise, which was my point . You'll have to find your own inane comments and nurture them yourself Greven, totally unconscious inanity being a very personal thing, you see .

Think about it a second.

The large majority of computers on the internet are mass produced, mass marketed, windows boxen. These are generally sold to your average family - with the average teenagers, and the average parents.

I'd imagine these are more likely to be the downloaders of porn (and summarily spyware, dialers etc) than Linux users.
