I have been working on computers since 1980 / my brother help the two steve and that bill guy to get there a**es off the ground and they did`nt give him sh*t for credit! anyway win 2000 was the last good windows out ever! after that m.e. has a secret black box file to tell the u.s.g. how you are using the web. When win xp sp1 came out they still hade the black box + a tattle tail collection file to give them a detailed collection of the http address to the axact site where you are visiting. SP2 has a passive firewall supposedly to help for better surfing (ya right) sp 3 and higher added more open source codes + 2 goverment encrypted tracker codes.(Get this) Windows; Vista has all this and it gets rid of half of your securities, (ok are you P.O yet?) Thats nothing; (Windows 7) L.O.L. you may as well run an open book computer, because thats what you got and all the added securities like: Clean Disk Security, Evidence Eliminator, Registry Mechanic, Registry Shower 2009 or NoAdware or anything like that forget it ( it will not work or you will have to either put them at the lowest setting or restore the windows os. GOOD LUCK? YOU WILL NEED IT Oh ya internet explorer 6 was the last good one 7 sucks, 8 sucks firefox should walk hand in hand with windows 7 they both can kiss my a**! I have heard people say that firfox is the best, but i am not a neocom, so i do not go along with that B.S. I am 57 years old and have been arounr this stuff for many years, Everyone is so paranoid about the email security? Don`t you think for one min that if someone has got your U.R.L address tagged that they can`nt read your email, because i see and fix Evidence of id theft and hackers everyday in the shop

I work in the software development and troubleshoot environment. I think we all know that Symantec has been building a enormous software factory of cr@p for a couple of years now. First thing I tell my clients, “lets start fresh and throw Symantec in the bin”. If it wasnt for their OEM deals they would have died out sometime ago. my two cents

@Martin:
So… why don’t they do something about this very irritating problem than?
Jojo’s right, they simply suck! :p

Jojo I think the main problem with Symantec applications is that they demand to many resources which has the effect that system performance drops noticeably. Just watch the boot time with and without Symantec products installed ;)

Ha. If you are using Symantec products, then you deserve what you get. Symantec sucks.
