WHen you d/l AVG it's free to begin with, it is a hell of alot more user friendly than Nortscum. Even with all the recovery shit Nortscum is still a resource hog, and it imbeds shit so deep into windows that formating is the only way to get rid of all of it.



Q? What is the difference between Nortscum & Gator?

A The Name.



AVG is 1000% better than Nortscum, it finds and destroys viruses better. I haven't ever had a virus run rampant on my system since I have been using AVG, and it's close to 4 years now.

I've used Norton forever, never had any problems, always caught every virus, but I have to agree on the resource problem. I think I'll give AVG a try...

also try just emptying the "Norton protected files" from the recycle bin and then going to the properties of the recycle bin and turning off the norton protected files system.

I had the free version not find 15 virii that were on my computer that the trial version of 7.0 found on the first scan.

I'll do that, Syn, thanks bro..

OH, you mean the trial version, I never use those nasty things.
