| 392035 | 2005-09-29 09:02:00 | What is the best Antivirus/Internet Security Suite Software for my situation: Intel Celeron CPU 1.2GHZ 120GB Ram 20GB Hard Drive. I'm not too fond of Norton, as it slows my pc down. I need something for 2 pcs. And by the way, when does the 2006 software come out in NZ? |

| 392036 | 2005-09-29 09:17:00 | Well, as already stated in your other post, get more ram. 120/128 is way too low for XP. You could try AVG, Nod32, Zonealarm, Panda, Outpost Firewall (dunno what this is like). |

| 392037 | 2005-09-29 09:44:00 | For paid AV, I'd go with Nod32 (well actually I have). AVG for free AV. Outpost, Kerio or ZA for firewalls. ZA is probably the most user friendly, but can cause issues for some. |

| 392038 | 2005-09-29 12:06:00 | I would stick with the WinXP SP2 Firewall + AVG AntiVirus in your situation. MS Antispyware would compliment it also :) | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 392039 | 2005-09-29 20:21:00 | I would stick with the WinXP SP2 Firewall Surely you're not serious?!! |

MS Antispyware would compliment it also :) Five days ago i had to disconnect ZA so that i could download some maps for UT2003 (i know but they were good maps ;-). I still had the windows firewall on so thought i'd be fairly safe. Checking my broadband usage meter yesterday i noticed that just over 50mb had been sucked out of my computer on the day that i had to disconnect ZA. Although they were great maps i dont think i'll do it again. |

| 392042 | 2005-09-29 21:54:00 | What would I know, Im just a blissfully ignorant Linux user whos had nothing but a router NAT'ing for the last year and a half, no AV, no anti-spyware.... :D | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 392043 | 2005-09-29 22:12:00 | Anyone comment on PC Cillin? It was the best in 2004. | zahmad (8963) | ||
| 392044 | 2005-09-29 22:30:00 | The best in 2004? Where?, Ubakastanki? Nod32 is you what you want, All those "big name" suites are big piles of crap. |
