Re: Playback problem

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Well Boo-Yah for you. GREAT NEWS. Tell ya what. I have tried and keep in
stock all versions of Norton/Symantec, McAfee and several other anti Virus
and smap removal programs and to be SO VERY HONEST with you. Stop at
Grisoft.com and read about their program AVG AntiVirus
It uses way less resources and will run ten times faster than both
McAfee/Norton.
For example I was on a job in southern Wisconsin this past summer and the
client had Norton Internet Security 2005 and wanted me to run his Disc from
a clean boot to Disc to try and remove spyware/Trojan/Virus from his SLOW
machine. I honored this and it took 2 hours 42 minutes and found one virus.
I knew there was alot more just but what Norton found. So I asked if he
wouldn't mind if I ran my favorite antivirus AVG. YES he stated and it tok
51 minutes and found 67 which now allowed windows to start nromally (30 - 45
seconds)
