  4. HA HA HA... YEAH RIGHT! I see on Ccleaners home page they have started cheap advertising like press here so you can win a 42 inch plasma , yeah right, so I will.It'll be as popular as press the "Fart button" you know you want to.Anyone that falls for that cheap trick deserves adware/spyware/tracking cookies etc. Come on Ccleaner less of the cheap tricks! Next it will be free smileys! (with abundance of adware/spyware) to boot!
  5. I have heard of this.I really don't know what to do.I hate Norton. Another bad thing i'm expeiencing is my firewall kicks in in under a minute but I can wait for up to 5 minutes for my Norton Antivirus to start.It's never the same any two days.I even have a start up manager, that didnt help either, its a real pain.Thanks for the tip anyway mate.
  6. Hi all Any ideas of how I can add "CCleaner" to my toolbar?I use it through my start menu at the moment. Cheers.
  7. I hate norton.When my subscription is up I am uninstalling the whole lot.Theres a number of sites I cannot click on, I have tried to get round it configuring these sites but with no avail.It is far too secure for home users.Like today it wouldnt let me open CCleaner.I even configured CCleaner to be safe and to use all ports etc.but no, I had to uninstall CCleaner and start again, and do a system restore.What a pain Norton is.Huh! the support? dont make me laugh.I know unsinstalling Norton is going to be a big problem too. I'll go back to Panda, and at half the size of Norton .Norton is a greedy hog in size.
