...........to come free of charge, for all licensed Windows users. That's going to put a few anti-'malware' software vendors noses out of joint!!!

My subscription to Norton is running out soon. I wonder if I should try the MS beta version. Can't hurt, right?

YA I WONDERING IF I SHOULD TRY ALSO DUE TO MY NORTON'S EXPIRY SOON TOO !!!?????

Yeah, If we don't like it...We just delete it, no problem. (I hope LOL!) I have about three weeks left. How about you?

My only concern is with the amount of time it normally takes Microsoft to issue updates and patches. There are 30-50 new viruses released every month now. I can't see Microsoft releasing updates every day of the year . My AVG receives updates almost every day now and there seems to be updates for my anti spyware programs every day too.
I just connected to Microsoft update tonight for the first time in over 6 months. There were only 15 updates?.

I love AVG. I have a Norton CD right by me, I never use it. Find it to be much of a system-hog. I use AVG and Freedom, I love Freedom

I got the full Norton works with my laptop. My first job after starting her up for the first time was uninstalling Norton!. I spend too much time trying to help people that are having problems with Norton, to make it a problem for myself
