well i never tested McAfee on my pc so i can neither give compliment to it nor spit on it

but i use Norton since hmm year 2001 i suppose coz i got it
with my 1st pc

and i must say even that version (which is actually from 1999 year) could clean (without any updates) 1 nasty virus from my pc 1 year ago that newest (at that time) NOD32 couldnt

also now i use 2004 pro version coz i cant install above since i use WinME and 2005,2006 are... for xp which blows in my opinion :tongue:
but only thing i literarly hate at Norton is itz integration during instalation without asking user if he/she/it wants it...
but when i remove manually those stupid things (active scan, protected recycle bin, script block) then i find it very good

and i do use other tools... not much tho coz im not on 2k/XP that are magnets for junk...
i use NAV, ad-aware and tauscan anti trojan...
and i must admit in last 2 years i had no troubles at all...
only new is that i have sygate firewall now coz i got dsl recently (finnaly)

and offcourse Opera browser is here that isnt like ie...

i have 1 question tho... what is "boot" scan?
i mean... i would understand active memory scan, or scan
of bios virus (dunno if this is possible with bios scan) but
boot ???
what is that ?
