Hey guys
I figure you guys are among the most saviest of computer users on the net, so I want to get some expert advise.
What do yall use for all of your vairous types of security software? (I run WinXP)
I'm running ZoneAlarm Pro for my firewall. I use McAfee SecurityCenter for my Antivirus (and it has caught a handful of viruses! it also catches a lot of spyware). I use CloudMark Spamnet for my Outlook Express spam catching.
I have Adaware 6, Spybot S&D, and Registry Mechanic to keep spyware off and my registry somewhat fixed.
Do you have any other recommendations? Specifically, any of the other McAfee tools? Or what about Norton tools? I'm looking for what yall reccomend to keep my system safe, clean, and running at optimal levels. I run the spyware tools frequently, and my anti-virus software runs constantly. I defrag and run the Disk Cleanup utility frequently.
I just don't want to degrade my system into running like crap, to the point where I have to reformat and re-instal my OS, etc. I *hate* doing that. I'm doing all I can to avoid installing software that I may end up uninstalling, because I don't want my system running slow.
Anyways.. So I guess I'm looking on advice for security software and system optimizing software.
Thank you!
