have bought Panda AV for past 4 years = works perfectly with my 2yr old standard XP computer (512MB memory), and with previous computer before that
so much better than Norton et al, and doesn't hog the computer's speed like others do!
recommended for all standard XP users like me - not used the tech help which I gather is hopeless, but otherwise for this price / performance should suit most users

I have found Kaspersky so much more effective and faster than Norton, but it might need a little fine adjusment and tailoring to your computer. 2 years running when I have installed it, it has disabled my internet connection, but it just needs the ports settings adjusted. For those who might find themselves in my position, click configure mail anti-virus from the Kaspersky menu on the desktop and then select scan pop3 etc highlighted in blue and then keep unchecking boxes until the internet works again.

The new ghost has a feature I've been waiting for: You can set your backups to be triggered by certain system events like when your system boots or when it shuts down and the like.
I had been looking for an app to do backups whenever a boot process was successfully completed and with ghost that actually works now.

If I had to sum up this software it would be 'close but no cigar'. It promises a lot and it is true that the front end is well featured and easy to drive. However the one absolute of a backup application is reliability and this software has persistent bugs that seem to have been there through several versions of the product. The result is that in some cases the backup either crashes out or, even worse, is corrupt. I have run this package against several other applications and it is just not a reliable set-and-forget backup tool.
If you want my pick then go with Genie Backup Pro. This can be as simple or complex as you need with the added advantage that it uses ZIP compression to save the backup. This means that you can see exactly what ... Read More:

I have never used an `anti-theft' or `vault' program before, so I was a little slow on the uptake. It's fairly simple if you follow the steps carefully. The program asks you to create three answers to three questions for security for your one password. You can then create as many secure `vaults' as you want, but you have to predetermine, or guess, how many MB each vault will be to hold your information. McAfee automatically assigns a letter for each vault (it looks like another drive; i.e. Z, Y or X, etc.) 4GB is the maximum for each vault, but I found that to be very generous unless you are securing a great many photographs. Here's a clue - there are a lot of `off-site' photography websites (like Kodak) that will store your photographs ... Read More:
