[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1034699"] And kaspersky is the worst! I had it on my PC before I went Mac and got rid of it within a week. It killed performance horribly. On my Mac, I run VMWare for the one Windows application I still need. Because I never connect to the internet from Windows, and because I sit behind a firewall from my ISP, I run that Windows with no anti-virus protection. VMWare let me capture a snapshot of the clean, just installed system. If I ever get a virus, I whack the current image and restore to that snapshot and I have a clean, new virtual machine. I don't store anything on the virtual PC, I store on an external drive, so I don't lose anything in the whack/restore process. Something for you to consider. And get rid of KAV, it's the absolute worst ever. [/QUOTE]
