I dumped Norton ages ago, finding it an incredible system hog. I use FREE Avast AV: http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html Others use AVG http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/ There is nothing wrong with the Win XP firewall. I also occasionally use Adaware antispyware (if I had to go on naughty sites!) http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad_aware_free.php -- Neil Arlidge - NB Earnest - Shannon Reg 7410 Read about the TNC Irish travels at: http://www.tuesdaynightclub.co.uk/Tour_07/index.html Defend The Waterways: http://www.saveourwaterways.org.uk/
