i use nod32 for virus protection, way less of a system hog than norton.

About 13 years...and "crap" is relative...I suppose I should have said "stuff" and saved your panties from getting ruffled. Is defender the end-all be-all ? no, it's a microsoft product. All I know is what *I* use and what I use on the 800+ desktops and 18 servers that I'm responsible for at work and NONE of my machines have any of the "stuff" you talked about and they're pretty clean. Having said that, we do run into PCs where dumbasses will click on everything they see online and end up infecting their PC, so I will take a look at the software you've mentioned. I do like AVG, but when I have Symantec Corporate...and it kicks ass....there's no reason for me to use it.

Your calling EWIDO crap? How long have you been working on PCs? It's the hottest out there right now! It's so good, AVG had to merge with them so McAfee and Norton would not get their hands on the software. Try downloading it and see what it finds on your so well protected Defender software you have now.

Do a screen shot afterwards so I can see what it found.

Heres the link

As far as the other so called Crap I use ,ccleaner Is the best and fastest way to clean your PC even Kori uses it. And it's free.

I use it for the Issues feature it replaces missing DLL files. You know how much money I have made showing up to someone's house running the ccleaner and collecting 25.00 dollars in under 5 minutes? This man was on the phone for 8 hours with the DELL people and they could not figure out why his DVD burner would not show up. The ccleaner fixed all registry and DLL issues and bam! he had a working pc with all working parts. The man practically wanted to give me head right there.

If you don't know about ccleaner than your missing out.

As far as AVAST goes, if you think Defender can out do AVAST then why is it 4 out of 5 PCs I work on have Defender? I have only worked on one PC in the last 3 months that had AVAST and that was because the person never did a Boot up scan.
Most people have no idea the serious Trojans have to be found and removed before windows boots up.

and unlike Defender, Avast doesn't slow down the PC by asking you are you sure you want to use Google or any other harmless browser. I am surprised Defender doesn't ask you if brushed your teeth before you turn off the computer.


I will be waiting for the screen shot after the Ewido scan. Hopefully you will post the original page.
