Suggestions welcome for an Anti-virus program that will actually have some kind of technical support that can be contacted by telephone or email, and not just a web "community" on Twitter and Fakebook.
I've been using AVG since 2007 when I retired from the Army & no longer could get Semantec/Norton AV from the Army's servers. Plus Semantec/Norton AV were so bloated by that time running them on my computer wouldn't leave any processing power to run applications. AVG has worked well for me in the meantime, good enough that I actually bought the paid version instead of just using the free one. But now, after all these years, I've had something detected and I can't get any information from AVG. Threat: Hidden application Object Name: Severity: High State: Secured Identified by: Anti-Rootkit Extended element information: Threat - Hidden application <unknown> Status - Healed Type - Part of Operating system It doesn't give me any other information, and I'm not satisfied that AVG has actually taken care of the problem. I got this on a scan yesterday and it was supposedly "healed" or "Secured" then as well. But it showed up again on this morning's scan. AVG's "support" site is about as useful as Yahoo's, i.e. "The lights are on, but there ain't nobody home!" PS - I haven't seen anything from Ann since I started having my woes with Time-Warner's Roadrunner email (which is still broke BTW) ... does anyone else have contact with Ann in some off-list kind of way to know if she's Ok? -- Science - Questions we may never find answers for.
