No Problem, the normal updates are monthly, however, when a new strain is detected their site is upgraded. So many people think their system will explode id they don't have Norton on there to send out all those warning signs and take control of the system, and cause folks to panic. I have used Norton & McAfee in the past, but not for 3-4 years, I like to have control of my system and not have some resource hog interfering with normal operations. One has to use plain common sense and not open everything out of curiosity. If it's a strange message or attachment, there's the DELETE key, use it. If it's important, it will be resent I'm sure. I have been using AVG for over 2-years, and it has always been there for me and taken care of any unsafe messages along with my prudence of selections.

Updates only once per month! Norton has updates almost daily, sometimes more than once per day. There are dozens of new vir*ses out every week, and if you don't have the latest up to the minute updates, you'll get infected. An AV program is ONLY as good at it's latest definitions. Save yourself tons of trouble and stay away from McAfee. -Clint ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
