Thanks Tarun, however Windows One Cure isn't exactly what I had in mind since I do have the time and technical expertise to secure and manage my computer on a daily basis.

I know what you mean. I'm sure rridgely would agree that ewido is really nice. Seems to handle anti-spyware and anti-virus. QUOTE(englishmen @ Aug 13 2005, 06:05 AM) Tarun is Microsoft oneCare any good? I applied to be a beta tester the other day, so my approval is pending. |

I think ewido would probably be the solution, although it would need dedicated antivirus built-in as well as a firewall. Of course it would bloat the app, however I see it as being a prime candidate for such an evolution. -------------------- |

Easy to use interface. Huge install though. 55MB. Makes bootup slow as hell from scanning so much. Built in AV/Firewall, Tune Up (which scans for viruses and lots of other things)
