| Guest | Re: anti-virus software Yes Avast or AVG. Personally finf AVG slicker but its onl a 1 month's trial whereas Avast is is free for home use. Norton's a nono; Trend Micro-PC-cillin is free and does work but seems to occupy a lot of cpu time, especially on startup.

| Guest | Re: anti-virus software For quite some time now i've been using the beta version of PC-Cillin. This has always worked fine for me. However, i have recently found that the Internet explorer protected mode is turned off on my machine and have suspected that PC-Cillin was the cause. Having removed PC-Cillin and installed Avast i now have confirmation that PC-Cillin was the cause of the protected mode option being Off. Avast and AVG have been another stalwart of mine and now that Avast works with Vista ( i had a lot of problems with Avast in previous builds) i will now be installing Avast instead of PC-Cillin. -- John Barnett MVP Associate Expert http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org The information in this mail is supplied "as is".
