What to load on new PC
I just formatting my HD and reinstalled windows xp Pro. I have nortons and it slows my computer down alot, so I do not want to load it but I want a virus protector. Is there a fix to nortons using all this computer brain power ), or can you guys recomend something that worked well for you? I also had Adware and Spybot on the computer and will reload them unless there is any reason I should not. I do not need a popup blocker or firewall cause Windows XP Service pack 2 has them.
Also are there any programs that you guys find usefull or fun on your computer?? Thanks in advance, Randy |

Download AVG 7.0... it uses far less resources than Norton.
