I would if I could trust me. I have strong hateful feelings toward Symantec. My computer at home just infected and my Symantec never did a thing (for the 2 years I had it). I got new anti-virus software and then formatted my hard drive to start over. No problems since.

But I'm guessing you are using Internet Explorer Warrtalon? Get Firefox..I had no problems at all with anything..but you should be glad Symantec actually did something.
I like that .3 second flash of the Evo X
They need to change the narrator of that commercial though..he sounds like a 10 yr old trying to sound tough.

+1. Not only did this happen, but it automatically closed all my internet explorer sessions.

AVG is one of the best available because it has auto update. imo using bandwidth to proform an update no big deal since it's helping your system run safe. Symantec may be more commercial, but it still sucks.

Symantec and a few other large names provide the tools to efficiently manage a large volume of clients. They also have server versions with plugins for exhange etc., standard versions of antivirus would scan your mailstores, quarantine them and cause the whole server to take a dump and will cost you hours to get back up (don't ask me how I know)

Thanks - this last link worked without a hitch.
Nice commercial - I'm glad to see Mitsubishi pushing their performance heritage, as I think that's one of their main appeals as a brand and a good way to differentiate themselves from their competition.
