    AVG seems fine, I downloaded it after Martin recommended it in the last issue of MoneyWise magazine - I use it and have had no need to pay Norton or anyone else so far...!

    Another £1.99 minimum on ebay as a dress I have for sale is selling now and has 5 peeps watching, plus my motorboke jacket has 5 peeps watching too and a min bid of £9.99, as it cost me over £200 i am hoping it will go for more. Plus another minimum £1.99 for an electronic thingy. All ending sunday... and sold a book on Amazon that I listed this morning, prob will get £1 for that after postage fees.

    Also my ex was the spender, and when I left him suddenly I had no debts! Mr EL is far better and even lets me save for him, he knows I love it and it works well for us. In the last few months he has saved £700, which he would normally have spent had it not been for my interfering ways... :D

  • whats zone alarm??

    would count the £30 in the challenge but I will put it in savings instead, as along side the challenge I have my own personal challenge of saving as much as possible (although........it would take me over £200!!) no I think I will just save the money instead!

    Zone Alarm is a Firewall and anti Virus programme - you may not need it. If you do, search on Google and it will come up.

    Hiya FDF - yeah it does take a while and constantly updates itself with latest updates too.

    Since last post, have sold a £9 book on Amazon - today has been an impressive one!
