Wish you had told me that a month ago.

Glad you got it fixed brother. Be keeping that in mind.

To tell you the truth Sans, only time will tell how good the Anti-Virus is. I don't know a whole lot about the different brands. But this one is the only one that got past the viruses to install. So, so far it's Webroot-1, the others-0.

I've been heard that NOD32 is supposed to be the shiznit, but... I'm gonna have to seriously consider your personal experience.
Thats worth more than web site reviews.

For years I used to use Norton anti-virus, but the nag pop ups are as bad as some of the spyware it’s supposed to protect against and for such a utility program, uses more than it should in memory. Kaspersky is giving me a discount for renewing, I have that with the Zone Alarm firewall package. The one feature I love the most about the Kaspersky, is if I’m not surfing and want the most resources for my DAW, one click and it’s unloaded. Simply gone.

No: “Are you sure you want to close this program?”, with residual processes even after exiting. Or the: “You aren’t completely protected until you purchase the new and/or improved email scanner”, which should have been included in the original purchase, but they can make more money out of making it an accessory.

I haven’t renewed yet, so I’ll be checking out the webroot and NOD32 before I do. Sorry for the trouble it put you guys through, but thankful for you guys posting the results and solutions.

P.S.
If you need Adobe reader, but don't want them to force their dowload manager on youm go to filehippo.com

Same thing for me Shredd. Just when I thought it was safe again, these damn phony Windows imposters have come in full force again.

I'm using Windows on a 50/50 basis at the moment. Its a love hate relationship. I always however, consider myself home when booting to the Linux partition.
Hope you get your troubles sorted. Same thing happened to a couple of friends I know today,
