There can only be 10 poll choices, and 2 more stickies would be way too many. These are here to try and stop new threads from cropping up every other day (Y)

F-Prot...  NOTHING (Even the AVGFree lol) can stand up to F-prot's superior functionality...  and it's licnesing (which comes to $10 USD per license to start) can't be touched by anybody, Even AVG (not free).

Exactly... AVG's not a good choice at all... been there, tried that... it's real time scan/autoprotect is sh!t too... Im tellin you... spend $50, get the 5 licenses of F-prot, and give them to yoru family... ;) :lol: in the end, they'll love you.

Changing course alittle, ClamWin is FAR better than AVG... and if you're really ThAT cheap then you need to at least be using ClamWin.

Honesty is the only policy... it's not the nice one, and it's not always the best, but it's the only one I believe in. Some things can't be sugered up... and even when they can I refuse to.

In hindsite (for him), nieveness is going to be a b!tch lol... ;)

BTW, Im not attacking you... but by being close minded you're really going to hurt yourself in the end. And as far as even speed goes, F-Prot doesn't slow anything down... at all... not liek SAV/NAV, AVG, or McGAyfee...

sav doesn't slow anything down, nav does.

Actually, I moved from NAV to SAV 3 years ago. I was very pleased with how much faster things got moving to SAV. However, 3 months ago I moved to F-Prot, and things got even faster.

Not sure what to tell you, but I've seen the light ;) lol... not to mention (since I wasn't using free/stolen/warez versions of SAV) the savings I get going down to udner $10/license.

I've always used Norton because.. Well, because I just always have. But am getting peeved at paying ??? for consumer level protection each year. A lot of people are suggesting NOD32 to me, so if it's free - I'll give it a try next time I reformat a spare PC.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary in AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update but that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.

      ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By +samw61 · Posted

      But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
