Re: AntiVirus

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

Another example of quoting things you heard somewhere. Maybe it'd be
better to talk about facts and your own experiences.

Did as you suggested and installed WGA quickly and without incident. Was

Norton interferes with this download? Please explain. Thanks. Stan

Obviously it doesn't. I stand corrected :-)

I thought of that because most of the complaints about that download on
the WU ng are Norton users.

Why should one avoid Norton? I have used it for 7 years and have never
been infected. During that time Norton has stopped viruses and removed
them or quarantined them so I could delete them.
I have heard that their tech support and rebate service leave much to
be desired but I have never dealt with them with such issues. All the
knowledgeable folks I know highly recommend it for its antivirus
capabilities. My two cents for what it's worth. Good luck. Stan
Go to Windows Update and try and download and install the new WGA and
then get back to us.
