new Norton accellerates


“in our health-conscious society, viruses of any type are an enemy. Just as proper diet, exercise and preventative health care can add years to your life, prudent and cost-effective anti-virus strategies can minimize your exposure to computer viruses” (Symantec, 1999)

Symantec's considerations about McAfee

To the question “What do you think of McAfee, often viewed as your rival?”. John Thompson’s answer: “It is a nice little company and they do a nice job. The industry needs competition. But we do not see their portfolio as competing directly with ours. We help customers manage their infrastructures better.”

AVG is pretty good if you run Windows. However, I went over fully to SuseLinux from XP and haven't looked back. After months of Linux, I installed AVG antivirus and nothing was found. However, AVG caused me problems because - just like the would-be virus infections - it had too much difficulty accessing the Linux root directory.

Get rid of Windows and dip into the delicious world of Linux! Forget antivurus issues!
