ilikeriding Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 How do you know there is a virus?, is there anything that your comuter is doing differently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant H Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 norton will get rid of it but its a stupid program that makes up threats and what not to make it look as if its doing its job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikeriding Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 I take it you just got some shitty pop up saying you have a virus but you actually dont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzo Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 norton will get rid of it but its a stupid program that makes up threats and what not to make it look as if its doing its job.Lol, and how would you know that? Its similar story to when I heard from friend that 'Norton downloads viruses onto your computer...' Of course it does, and then it gets rid of them to ensure its all working correctly...I'd stick with Norton, £19.99 at PC World...but then again you'd probably end up walking out with a Packard Bell. Dont use the free stuff, AVG or whatever its called, I personally don't trust it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 seeing as my uncle is a systems analysist i think he'd know.it just makes you think that its working properly.Although he hasn't got a clue what he is saying, he is right. Norton pops up every f**king time to ask me whether I want to allow firefox access to the internet. Every time. And it asks 6 times.It gets a bit annoying after about 3 days.AVG is good, updates regularly, keeps the shit at bay and also doesn't use up too much of your system resources like Norton and McAfee do.
