And MSAntispyware is beating Adaware in tests....
NIS is er well Ok but its a resource hogger and just really
not worth the money, especially up against Nod32..
:rotfl: Dont take offence but if your running out of room on your hdd, using antivirus and firewalls its about time you upgarded.. And please dont misquote me i never said ms antispyware was beating adaware, and as for NIS, its down to user preference if you dont have a pc that cant take it DONT use it!!
And as for not worth the money £18.00 aint gonna break the bank compared to the hassle of problems, or getting some one else to do it!!If you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of payments.0 -

Please dont take offence. :rotfl:
1, Running out of space on a HDD, remove unwanted old programs and NIS as that just takes up space for no apparent reason.
2, A PC that cant take NIS well if it cant get rid of NIS as its sh*te
3, Spend £18.00 for no reason as NIS is sh*te0 -

I agree its down to user preference, but no point in chucking money away.0 -
My preferred programs are:
Firewall: ZoneAlarm
Antivirus: AVG
Adware search: Lavasoft AdAware
I haven't needed any more than these three and they're all free0 -

zone alarm and avg had a conflict between them, have they sorted that problem out now?If you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of payments.0 -
Yeah theyve sorted that one out now, but I gotta say sygate for me..0

I switched to Sygate when ZoneAlarm killed (BSOD if you're techie) my early version XP laptop, and have never looked back. It - for me - is the simplest to use, a real 'fire and forget' solution.There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences. - P.J. O'Rourke0
