Anti-Virus 2009 is a virus itself. :)

Bitdefender better than norton? I thought norton was the best.:mmokay:
I'm checking for it nonetheless, always better to have more than one anti virus software.

Edit: Pay no heed, i was thinking of nod32 when i said nav.:-[

Try that?

I find AVG to be the best available. But, for it to be effective you need to uninstall every trace of any anti-virus program you already have before installing it.

Norton (Symantec) is a nightmare to get rid of, You have to uninstall most of it manually and it puts a ton of files on your PC that have to be hunted down and manually deleted.

Download and run the Norton Removal Tool

The Norton Removal Tool uninstalls all Norton 2009/2008/2007/2006/2005/2004/2003 products, Norton 360 and Norton SystemWorks 12.0 from your computer.
format_quote Originally Posted by Saimah Ali

Yes! I've tried all the rest now moved to Norton 360 which not only has a built in repair program (like the earlier versions) but now also has a built-in live support where I can speak to a person in real time (kind of MSN chat)

however it can be a nightmare if it is a "borrowed" copy because then one can not get free support from Symantec.

Most error messages aren't to do with viruses, they are usually just things that pop up when the computer doesn't understand what you are trying to do, or the computer can't do what you want it to do.

Good nerds= error messages
Evil nerds= Viruses

you do not need the key to remove it, removal tool will remove all traces without problem within minutes (after a reboot) you can install a free version or a 90 day version from any company.

any problems post here or PM me and I'll gladly go through it (in real-time via MSN) with you.
