We've had problems with McAfee too - it's now banished along with Norton. AVG seems to be doing a good job - no effects on boot or shutdown times, and it's free! Call me a cynic, but being free means certain potential commercial pressures are removed.....

I've used McAfee for nigh on eight years and never had ANY problems, no viruses, trojans etc.. Got to say I wouldn't switch away.

I had too many problems with a free trial of Kaspersky. Automatic updates more than once turned on features I had never activated, like parental checking. I also wasted a day trying to track down a false positive. They seem to put the updates out before proper testing.
I run free AVG as a diagnostic tool if I have problems.
And what many forget is that it's just as easy (or hard) to measure
18.83 as it is to measure 18.20 or 19.00 or any other guage you care to specify to 2dp.MBQ
I switched from Norton to McAfee this year as Norton annoyed me. Had no real problems with either. Company I work for users Trend - great one that. Instructions to users - if you get a virus, remove your PC from network and contact support. So it doesnt actually remove them then.

"btdna.exe" is just the download engine of µTorrent minus the GUI. Since I always "save as" and then open with the BT client of my choice it doesn't affect me.

Arghh, no, it's GAGE, it's on the NMRA site, it must be right.
