Cmang posting on Livejournal. I forgot that you had a livejournal account. I jettisoned the pre-installed ad for Mcafee just a few days before there started to be news stories about problems with it. Are there any security add-ons that you do like?
Sure, there are security add-ons I like. Spybot S&D is good. MS's is good. SELinux is good. Mod_sec is good. Anything that works well is good. (I don't use Windows that often so I don't have to deal with Windows stuff much.)
I just think it's really lame of them to whip up a scare over stuff that isn't a threat, and use that to aggressively market their program.
I've never liked Norton or Mcafee. Tend to slow things down more than they help anything, and this unethical marketing on their part is mad lame. I'd expect as much from eastern european crime syndicates, not from a "reputable" company.
