You should listen to your grandma

Mmmm - I've been away for 3 days on business and so I'm just catching up - seems like we've had a little fun here boys & girls?

It's been an entertaining but I think that we all need to get back to the original topic before this thread deviates any more with the personal back 'n' forth stuff.

So whilst it's been fun - let's move along and be nice to each other - after all, that's what we're known for around here.

Mike

Did you bring us any presents?

Always the party pooper Mike!

OK, nothing to see here folks... Move along!

Agree Phil,
We should not forget that the purpose of this forum is helping other people.
I don't think that anyone needs help here. I am out.

I dont like onecare, it is currently in its bloatware phase. It slows down my computer and doesn't play all that nice

Wow!, really? ive been running the beta for ages now and havnt had any issues with slowing down, etc. I bought a copy last night for the new machine im going to be building next week.

No problems slowing this machine down either.

hmmmm stupid machine. Tried a number of xp applications been running vista through its paces for testing purposes. Must be one of those proggies leaving behind residual crap then

cheers for the info

I'm with simbot on this one, with onecare my system slows down comparatively when playing games like C&C3 or SupCom, Converting video, etc. The comparative is with refrence to NOD32 or no AV at all.

With onecare game mission take an extra 30 - 40 seconds to load than with NOD32 or no AV at all. Converting video takes up to 10 minutes longer on an average of 1 hour to convert compared to NOD32 or no AV.

I don't need a study to tell me oncecare does not perform.

i thought one care was one of the security solutions ive used with little to no bloatware. Ive been a fan of nod32 for a while though.

I love nod, just got a free copy of Onecare so I thought why not

For a while? Are you trying to suggest you've got more experience than the rest of us? How condescending!

Oh help!

Okay but we bid on who gets to help, longest expirienced person here gets to help philzgr8 in a condescending manner.

Im in for 23 years straight computers expirience, if you need help with spelling I'm lost too.
