Impress with AVG

Was never a fan of AVG until few days back...(Read my previous post).

The pop-up is gone for good with the Help of AVG Free Edition...Fantastic....!!!

Disappointed with Mcafee Security Center(AOL Edition)

Was utterly disappointed with the Mcafee Security Center(AOL Special Edition)...
My system was infected with adware..(stupid advertisment keep telling me my system is infected with virus,pls click here to solve it) and i tried cleanig it with Mcafee.Tried full scan on normal operation and safe mode..nothing found.Installed Adware 2007 also nothing found.

Decided to give AVG(free edition) a shot...BANG it found 5 virus on my system...and it manage to delete them off....i will monitor my system now to see if the pop up still comes up.

For the time,mcafee will be in my blacklist...I dont know if there is any difference between the Mcafee paid edition and the AOL edition.I have used both before and there look the same to me except the AOL wording.

I am glad AVG has save my day of reformatting.(HOPEFULLY)...

WinXP SP3

Windows XP Service Pack 3 has been delayed again and again.Finally it looks like a date is gonna be set(First Half 2008)..
Does it mean Windows Vista is still not living up to its standard that XP users still "love" their XP so much that they are reluctant to change to the eye candy filled Windows Vista.
We shall wait and see what other security hole and patches are being patch up this time with SP3...:)
