Wait... you mean you normally wear clothes when your at home? Weird...

I used one computer of mine without protection for a while. Took me about 2 months before a total melt-down.

And this was before I started looking at porn... well... as much as I do now.

I like McAfee. It's a nice combo of light yet robust.

I use Grisoft's free AVG antivirus and the thing kicks ass, seriously.

It updates twice as much as Norton, and during the whole MyDoom scare it was updating three times for each ONE time MacAfee update.

It is simply the best balls-up anti -virus program around... have never ever gotten anything since. When I was using the office network's MacAfee it wasn't unusual to get some weirdies, but I argued and finally won to have my office machine taken off MacAffee (which when ever it updated would FREEZE my machine) and put myself under AVG (under my own responsibility).

I won..
