i was using my dad's computer when this warning came up.
I have always believed anti virus software was a waste of resources, this only solidified my beliefs.

Jim Norton is a hero among men, and you should honor him with your daughters.

No shit - any good software will give you that message. You setup your own "Allowed" programs list by building it up and allowing them as they come up. I would rather block everything and only allow what I need then to have everything open and block what I can find.

Agreed - there are better alternatives. I just think that Atarom's reason for hating it isn't a worthy one =)

I don't run any virus software. It is as annoying as the viruses. I walk on the wild side.
