Right, I've just installed AVG Pro trial (I'll be paying for it once McAfee give me my money back (no, really!)), after having uninstalled McAfee, disckcleaned, defragged, and registry mechanic'ed the pc. It's amazing... Doing the same job as McAfee without eating all my memory and processor cycles. You are in the rpesence of a convert :-) Jon -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of John Bartow Sent: 13 November 2006 14:38 To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] McAfee VirusScan v11 Hi Jon, I recommend AVG Free AV and AS, plus ZA free or Kerio firewalls for home PCs. All top notch and free for home users. As to CA's Suite, see my other post. Does ZA Pro go back to the limited version if you don't pay the renewal fee? If so I'd suggest keeping it but removing McAfee. Clean up your machine by downloading McAfee's cleanup tools (not so easy to find but there are some and they remove all traces of their products from the registry) then install AVG's free products: http://free.grisoft.com HTH John B. _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- This email has been verified as Virus free Virus Protection and more available at http://www.plus.net
