"On the XP install, it runs like a dream. It really does. I have not found one thing wrong with it there"
Thanks for the clarification. I, as well as all my friends still have XP. I usually throw AVG n Zonealarm on my friends machines, and mine too, for that matter.
I have avira on an old laptop.
Every few months the free stuff bullies you into thinking you "HAFTA" buy it -- OK for me since I know better, BUT, not good for my friends who don't know how to deal with it, once I install it for them. I have been tempted to reccomend Norton to them, especially with the 3 computer pack for $50 (only after your good words, as I said)...
Is there any real reason why Zonealarm should really hafta get updated every 3 months or so???
I have just suspected that it is a ploy to keep trying to get their foot in the door to subscriptions.
I play around with linux sometimes. A few of em are ready for prime time, as I see it. You can even run a fair amt of windows software in linux, BUT, ya gotta jump thru hoops to get it set up on init install of the programs, am I get concerned about fixin linux if it breaks. The bad thing for me is the way they all (different versions of linux) put files in different locations. At least windoz puts most stuff in /programs. Since Ameritrade came out with strategydesk, I run it and quotetracker too much to go into the linux arena.
"Thus far, I actually like it, which embarasses me to no end"
That is funny -- I like your sense of humor.
