Lurker Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Why dont you get the Norton Internet Security? After rebates either you will get it free or for 15-20$. No freeware ka locha. Mere system pe loaded hai, maybe I will move to Norton 360 when it expires. I think Norton 360 is fairly good for a home based pc, contains both anti-virus and spyware functions. check that out.

Lurker Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Lurker must hate you for recommending shitty software like Norton :D Kahe ka shitty software?? Norton is quite good, specially for ghar ka kaam. Which softwares do you use by the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 DR, On an aside note, do you order software from USA? And if so how is it working for you right now? I ask because Canadian Dollar is stronger vis a vis US Dollars so can you buy and get it shipped there, or do you have to order from the Canadian website?

fineleg Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I've heard the latest version of Norton is a resource hog. Spybot and AdAware (Lavasoft) are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chunky_lafanga Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Cut and paste- In the beginning… well, I’ll stay away from that mess of evolution vs. intelligent design. Let’s start back when the Internet began. So there Al Gore was; supposedly he invented this thing called the Internet. Then some other college kid got bored and decided “Hey! I’m going to delete crucial code from a program until it crashes my computer!” Thus, the first virus was born. Ever since then, more and more Windows users have been placing viruses on the Internet, and every person with a PC is running around like a chicken with its head cut off in fear. Then came the good guys; yes, anti-virus software. Until one day a company named Symantec made Norton. Then the good became the bad. Norton turned the tide for PC users… until after it was installed on their computer. At that point they wondered, “Do I have a virus or is my computer just gooey?” Unbeknownst to them, their computer was infected, infected by the disinfector. Norton anti-virus sucks, and the world despises it. Why is it around? Because Compaq bundles it with their PCs. Geek Squad at Best Buy hands it out to old ladies who can’t even get their monitors on, and Al Gore used it to make his slide show of idiocy (look, I apologize for the Gore jokes. From now on, I’ll only make fun of the French.) With the history laid, here are the top twenty reasons why the world despises Norton. 20. Having to type in your serial number while installing and then activating it within 20 days of installation. 19. When Norton corrupts downloading files. 18. When Norton uninstalls its self because a virus threatened it. 17. The stupid task bar tool bar thing that has pop-ups the size of greater Atlanta. 16. The live update reminders. 15. The CPU and RAM consuming virus scans. 14. Its inability to delete any virus, even ones that a three-year-old wrote. 13. How it re-adds its self to your computers start up list. 12. When it says you have spyware on your computer, then does nothing. 11. How when it quarantines a virus, it copies it to the folder. 10. If you use it to delete adware it changes your homepage and locks it. 9. After using Norton to delete spyware it tells you that you have to re-install it to open Microsoft Word. 8. The virus definitions in a Haitian health clinic are more up to date than Norton’s. 7. Norton is over hyped and over-priced. 6. Requires a subscription every year. 5. On any operating system other than XP if your computer gets a virus Norton’s only defense is to initiate “the blue screen of doom” 4. If it comes bundled with a computer and you don’t run thorough set up it will pop back up every time you log in. 3. It tried to tell me that dtgeeks was giving me a virus. 2. The latest version blocks ports that are critical to 99.9% of Internet gaming connections. And now for the number one reason why Norton is despised worldwide: 1. Because after you realize Norton is crap. You will also find the folder is missing the uninstaller, just like many kinds of adware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Abbe tu kabhi use kiya bhi hai ke aise hi kuch online udaa leta hai? Of the 20 points you make I can see immediately atleast half that is plain wrong. Lets see. 20. Having to type in your serial number while installing and then activating it within 20 days of installation. ** didnt have this problem. Would install a new version and remember to check this. 19. When Norton corrupts downloading files. ** When bhai? Have been using Norton for 2 years on one of my laptops. 18. When Norton uninstalls its self because a virus threatened it. ** Again, yeh kab hua? Saala 2 saal se mere laptop pe hai. Na virus aaya na uninstall hua. 17. The stupid task bar tool bar thing that has pop-ups the size of greater Atlanta. ** Speaking off his/her ar$e. Tool bar mein sabka size ek jaisa hota hai. Pop ups are no different from Automatic Window updates. 16. The live update reminders. ** Kaspersky has silent updates, Norton has "vocal" updates. Both have its pluses. Sometimes I wish to download later so I can postpone updates, not possible in Kaspersky. 15. The CPU and RAM consuming virus scans. ** Never had any issue. 14. Its inability to delete any virus, even ones that a three-year-old wrote. ** Saale by most Independent magazines Norton is consided 2nd in anti-virus after Kaspersky. Kuch bhi kya? 13. How it re-adds its self to your computers start up list. ** Not sure, will check. 12. When it says you have spyware on your computer, then does nothing. ** lol..Who wrote this piece? 11. How when it quarantines a virus, it copies it to the folder. ** This was valid in old versions, actually post 2006 this aint an issue. Aage jaane de itna kiske pass time hai. Look if you want a good solid technical anti spyware go with Kaspersky or NOD32, ghar ke kaam ke liye or just plain net surfing Norton is more than sufficient.

Lurker Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Yaar only Avast anti virus software runs permanetly. The other three you run every day or once every week. 5-10 minute mein sara scan karke jhadun poncha mar deta hai. Mera sara kam ka software legit hai. I am normally a good boy Abbe kaam ka software to genuine hoga na, warna locha ho jaayega. I must say that my current laptop is fairly big on memory so uska issue nahin hai. Main to roz ek baar Anti Virus chala deta hoon. 5-10 minutes mein ho jaata hai.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 i have 3 years of mcafee.. but i removed it.. using nod32 instead... Yeah NOD32 is good, although a little too technical I think. They have a solid product but I dont like the interface so much. Kaspersky is good by all accounts, expensive though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
