| 562664 | 2007-06-25 21:42:00 | Just started to install it, and it wants me to uninstall Spybot / AdAware and disable Windows Firewall. Ignore it. Yes I'd disable MS firewall but not remove the others. |

| 562665 | 2007-06-25 22:29:00 | I wouldn't touch it with abarge pole. My sister has it on here PC (came with it pre-installed) and it is a resource hog and slows the whole PC down. Very slow at scanning as well. Pops up irelevant messages. | Big John (551) | ||

| 562667 | 2007-06-25 22:47:00 | I tried this program a few months ago. All it did was cut me off every 30 mins. Dont know if it was the program or a setting in it, I had to enable/disable So that was the end of this firewall. |

| 562668 | 2007-06-25 22:53:00 | Hmm that's curious, I'm running Trend Internet Security here and did a full system reinstalla few days ago. Never once had Trend say to get rid of Ad-Aware or Spybot, It automatically disabled Windows firewall and I had no hassles at all. Cheers |

| 562669 | 2007-06-25 22:59:00 | Well i use trend micro 2007, and it works perfectly fine, as for slowing the system down i haven't seen any antivirus that doesn't, and on my machine the difference is pretty negligible, The only time i have ever seen trend micro have a really adverse effect on a systems performance is when the trend-micro version predates the OS it was installed on, as in my wife had a version that predated XP installed on XP, and it ran like Parekura Horomia up Baldwin Street, but when upgraded to a newer version it ran fine |

Trend Micro is a good product. However, everyone has their own opinion about AV. Personally I've never encountered any problems with it, either the stand-alone PC-Cillin version or the server based SMB version. |
