    anti virus program?

    Who is using what? I have 11.4 installed, and am trying to be proactive
    I also am concerned with slowing the machine down anymore.
    Thanks in advance for any replies

    Your Best Anti-virus is Smart Browsing..I Don't use any because it will slow down the Verus. I've tried pretty much every Antivirus software and found they all slow down the Verus. I'm Current just using Search & Destroy Spy-bot, at least to give me some protection against spyware and malware, and it free. It runs quietly in the background without affecting any performance on the Verus. And I scan using Microsoft's Malicious Software removal tool once a month.

        I have the free AVG on my verus. So many issues with this thing that I cant tell if the AVG is hurting performance or not.
