Automatically solved my virus problems

The only problem I've found with this program is its inability to load when a previous version of AVG Virus protection software existed on the PC. Even if AVG is uninstalled there are left over files that stops Kaspersky from loading. The AVG site has a program that you can run to remove all AVG files. Even that didn't do the trick for me. The Kaspersky forum listed files that I manually deleted which was finally successful. After all that was done and the program loaded, it worked wonderfully. My PC was so virus laden I was to the point of just reformatting the hard drive. This got rid of everythig (and everything that AVG couldn't remove). It runs in the background blocking attacks, does scheduled system sweeps, and automatically updates for new downloads. I am free free free!

I recently committed two dreadful sins: I upgraded to Windows XP and installed SystemWorks at the same time.
Systemworks runs flawlessly, handles my drive optimization, quickly repairs trouble spots, and cleans up programs, internet caches, and unneeded files.
Symantec is doing an outstanding job keeping Norton Anti-Virus up to date. Very frequently, I am being prompted to update my anit-virus software to guard against the latest predator. With Live Update it is simple and fast.
I have found, that since upgrading my RAM, everything runs much faster and SystemWorks performs even better. I only had 64MB and now am running at 256MB on my 633MHZ Compaq so, it figures.
5 Stars for Symantec on this product!

My Husband recently and suddenly passed away and I was left with his computer. I had no idea what to do with it. Fortunately a friend of his  gave himself time to help me reorganize and set it up for my needs. The first thing he recommended was the immediate installation Avast Antivirus.

The program is set up to run every Sunday at 5:00 AM. Everything is secure before I leave for church.

Thank you Avast for this wonderful program.

I've had Norton products on my computers for over 10 years. And for most of those 10 years have experienced no problems whatsoever. Since the 2003 and 2004 version of this software program I have experienced SEVERE slowing down of my computer, hanging up of my computer when trying to shut it down, and prolonged start up times ALL of which were cured when I took this bloated software off my computer.

I'm not a software designer or a computer expert but am reasonably adept and skilled on the computer and can for the most part fix nearly every problem I encounter. I don't understand exactly WHY removing Norton solved my problems but I can tell you this: My computer has NEVER run so well and with so few problems. No crashes, no hanging up on shut down or start up, and lightening quick responsiveness once again.

The problems caused by this Norton program flummoxed until I finally isolated Norton as the culprit. I googled my multitude of problems and found that several people were have the same sorts of problems and identified Norton as the root cause.  At first I rejected out of hand that a company as legendary and well regarded as Norton could be at the root of my problems, but decided out of frustration to delete the program and see how it impacted the multiple problems I was having.

Low and behold my problems miraculously vanished! I couldn't believe it! My daughter who had problems on start up worse than mine balked too at removing this program from her laptop but also discovered that the removal of Norton solved HER problems as well.

I told one of my friends what I'd discovered and he too deleted the program only to see all of his multiple problems disappear! He told me that he simply couldn't believe how good his computer was once again functioning.  My uncle called me yesterday.  He resisted taking Norton off his computer because he thought I was exaggerating the problems caused by Norton.  He finally took Norton off when another of his friends told him the same thing.  He told me he should have acted sooner thereby saving him all sorts of problems and heartaches.

I've replaced Norton System Works with Trend Micro's PC-Cillin and Zone Alarm both of which are highly regarded.

If you are having unexplained problems with your computer that your anti-virus program and spyware programs are not solving and if you have this bloated pig of a program on your computer then you need to delete it.

Norton has been getting these reports on their software for over three years and refuses to correct the problem.  It is hard to imagine what is going through their heads.  These fools figure they can sell junk software forever.  WRONG!!  They are destroying their franchise.  I will not put ANY Symantec software on my computer.

BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!  BEWARE!!  You have been warned.

I ussally purchase anti-virus programs at the store so that I can get a "cd" incase I need to boot from it to fix viruses. Found that you can "make a boot Disk" from norton's site to boot your PC if needed to clean some of the viruses off that way. Have tested this version with Windows 7 Ult. 64 bit and found it does what is says. Stopped viruses for getting into the system and let's you know what it is and what happened. A must for web browsing today.

Two computers-three months-three Trojan Horses.  McAfee couldn't catch a cold.  Went to PC Magazine.com and found Ad-Aware highly rated.  Bought it and haven't had a problem since.  This program has stopped at least five virus attempts.  THREE thumbs up.

Works Great!  This USB drive has some great tools.  Cleaned my computer in minutes.  Just for fun I tried booting from the Virus Tools USB drive and discovered a ton more tools.  More than I'll ever need.
The Malware scanner cleaned over 2000 infected files on my computer.  My computer is running great now.  Well worth the price!

Content so far is very helpful. Will review more later.  Virus showed up in my D drive after installing information from CD

because it was an antivirus software that I would be paying for. I thought it would be costly, with a LOT of astronomical fees and really expensive yearly updates. But to my surprise I was so wrong. This product is awesome! I had a really nasty virus, it was easy to download and within seconds (seriously) the virus was already spotted and shortly thereafter there were things popping up that I didn't even know were on my computer! I recommend Webroot to everyone I know! I do not run my computer without.

Avast is the best Free Antivirus I've ever used for Windows, and I've used most of them. Automatic updating (rarely found on free AV programs), clear, simple to use interface and tools, and best of all, after years of using it, I've had no infections on my machine. Kind of hard to beat it for the money -- I did mention it was FREE, didn't I?

Yes, like most freeware AV programs, you'll be presented with simple (but unobtrusive) offers to upgrade to the 'professional' version for a few bucks, but it's not annoying, and the extra features are probably worth the money, but one click on 'no thanks' takes care of that. All things considered, definitely earns 5 stars from this user.

My computer caught a virus Pop up type, where I opened a website and the virus changed me on the other page. With the anti-virus 360 Total Security could solve the problem.

This anti-virus gets regular new signature downloads, and regular program updates. It functions well-I've had no infections so far. Highly recommended.
