[quote=UCGal]I gave up on McAfee a year ago… A *nasty* virus got past McAfee – I was able to kill it with the FREE microsoft security essentials.

Free, works better… yeah, I’m a fan.[/quote]

Actually, I just use linux for the really important stuff and don’t bother with Symantec or Macfee.

If I have to use a PC, I have a dedicated hard drive specifically for important stuff running an computer that isn’t connected to a network. And if I need to use a PC on the net, I have a separate pc/drive for that, and I don’t run any AV software.

I have unprotected surfing sessions, except if things break, I just reimage the drive….Uh never mind the analogy.
