Here's a little experiment; say you have the following - - fresh install of Windows 7/Vista, fully updated, no tweaks - MSE installed and...
I have a number of issues with Admuncher. Not being able to exclude intranet sites is #1. It is also a little too trigger happy on some sites and...
I almost never buy anything at retail prices anymore. With craigslist, ebay and the deal sites, you can find deals for almost anything in new/good...
Is NIS 2010 (or the regular antivirus) easy to uninstall, does it leave behind traces?
MSE is based on Windows Defender/OneCare, which in turn was based on the product Microsoft bought (was it Giant?). Does anyone know how much the...
Am I the only one running MSE as my only security app? I am on Windows 7 x64 with 4GB ram and haven't noticed any issues at all, but after the...
Not that this means its not true, but hasn't pcmag raved about prety much every Norton product? I fond the user reviews a lot more valuable since...
I purchased Norton 2009 for my fathers pc running Vista. there were issues running it under UAC (e.g. it did not elevate and there was no way to...
So what's new? As they say there is no foolproof lock, and there is no completely secure solution. The stakes are high and some very smart people...
I've done my fair share of vLite customizations, and also used readymade ones like TinyVista. I like Win7 better and it feels faster. I don't...
Windows 7 and now this - Microsoft has been releasing beta code that is good enough for release by many other vendors. Both are excellent products...
I never understood the fascination with boot times. Just how often do you need to reboot anyway? Only when you install a system driver. Even most...
How does MSE compare against Avira in your opinion (purely detection and cleaning, not cpu/memory which are light enough for both)? To me Avira...
Another big advantag - - any flaws in this will be very public, just like any flaws in IE are. MS is very good at security updates - MS has...
The line of reasoning that this will cause other security vendors to go out of business and thus it is a bad thing is flawed. I couldn't care...
Where did you get that idea? Morro is and will be free.
I've been using Avira on Win7 builds since Jan (both 32 and 64 bit) without any issues. I'm sure others will work as well but its my AV of choice.
I can't believe that people still complain about UAC and turn it off? What do you want Microsoft to do? They have made a secure OS which does not...
Interesting topic! There's no doubt search needs to expand beyond the simple pattern matching that all current search engines use. Google...
Work on Win 7 started long before Vista was released. This is nothing new. Most big software companies have teams working on products 2 or 3...
RC is a build that's considered good enough. Its then put through a number of tests (e.g. a public release). If no critical bugs are found, it...
I agree, it'd be nice if MS would give a discount to Vista users for Win7. But that would be a loss of millions of $ for them, not a smart...
Registry cleaners and registry defrag are IMO 99% of the time useless, as in they have no measurable performance impact. Its just another file on...
Why would you expect a price break? Apple charges for every OS release, even minor point releases, whereas MS ships gives us major features (like...
1. People buy products based on marketing, not on the actual worth. Savvy consumers, like the crowd at Wilders, is of course an exception. So...
