Hi Paul
Thanks for the info, much appreciated.
I'm running Symantec stuff on our other two PCs so I'm resigned to toughing it out, just to avoid the hassle of downloading, installing and then un-installing other SW when the Symantec stuff eventually arrives. I’ve got used to Symantec, so when they finally cough up the goods, I’ll stick to that environment, although I must say it has been a little touch and go over the last few weeks.
In reality, I am very careful and hygienic with where I go and what I do on the web, and I also have a router which has a hardware firewall, so all in all, it’s not too much of a drama, more of an inconvenience. I use the Notebook in the back garden and it is nice to be able to browse IIS and do e-mail whilst also collecting photons, hence the need for some AV product on the Notebook. One nice feature of the Symantec Firewall is that I can prevent executables from accessing the web unless I allow them via a firewall rule, although I’m sure the other competing products do the same thing too.
It will be interesting to see if my e-mail to the Symantec V-P gets through!
Cheers
Dennis
