Re: Do you like Trend Micro PC-cillinT Internet Security 2006 vs Norton: for use with Outloook 2003

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



I am solely talking about the Outlook integration, which, as I said before,
I have never seen any product produce a non-problematic integration with
Outlook. Just my opinion.

||| However, I will be getting a replacement computer soon, and am

|||
||| Any opinions? I would try to get the one that is corporate or for

|||
||| I also know they have free tech support and wondered how that is.
