    I tried the free OpenDNS but I don't like it. A client software needs to be installed for dynamic ip. I can just put the preferred dns server number to use norton connectsafe.

    What else did you install on her pc for protection against keyloggers? I mean after all keyscrambler is only a part of a layered security approach. It can neither remove keyloggers nor prevent them and is only useful if a keylogger in a stellar chance passes through all the protection of av, hips, etc.

    I was using Norton ConnectSafe, but it wouldn't play nice with my network printer, it completely cut down it's functionality for all computers in the house. So, I made the switch to OpenDNS

    I am also testing Dr.Web CureIt 7 Beta. As soon as it comes out of beta, I might use it on a permanent basis. I've never heard of Bytehero, is it good stuff?

    I am using a Brother network printer, and it didn't like ConnectSafe at all. It does like OpenDNS though

    You may want to try connectsafe again because as adult confirms you just use the printer with connectsafe this time. By the way, which network printer are you using?

    Edit: LOL R. You already answered my question in the above post. Guess you're better off with OpenDNS.

    I am using a Brother All-In-One Network Printer.

    I was able to adjust the Brother settings to play nice with OpenDNS, but no matter how much I tried...It absolutely didn't like ConnectSafe.

    Good to hear you're testing cureit. It's very powerful.

    I use bytehero.......rarely. :D But it's good stuff.

    Good, a FP that should be corrected in the next update. It will eventually be integrated into the HitmanPro scanner.
