Before that though I would think about installing a free AV like AVG etc to cover you while you are sorting out the Symantec problem  |
Cheers - hopefully I'll get it sorted soon but my NIS subscription is due soon and at this rate they can whistle. Still no sign of the promised phone call. These people sure do take the garibaldi.
What's PC-cillin like anyone? |
Like most things you hear good and bad things
Unfortunately I have heard many stories of Symantec software not fully unloading all it's stuff occassionally. Then again I've heard stories about software that I use and I've yet to suffer the same fate lol.
Any good Anti-Virus and firewall combination would be an improvement on your lack of working software at the moment though
Personally I use Kerio and AVG but I have used several firewalls in the past including Zone Alarm and Nortons Internet Security suite. These days I prefer to use a stand alone tool rather than a suite in case something goes wrong and I have to strip the remains out of the registry manually
