They should learn from KAV beta team....

i dont know how it so. I've had that for many months and due to its inefficiency , I'd had to go for AVG , Antivir, etc... It just doesnt detect the c r a p p y stuff in the comp whereas the other softies detected ..

that is also not so effective as I had the virus and trojans detected by it but it never removed and finally had to use NOD32 to disinfect it...

@achacko@dataone.in if i'm not misstaking u had a post running on KAV Beta forum about this same problem...

so if none of the AVS is detecting any crappy stuff... then how do u know that ur system has those crappy stuff??

i dont remmember that any other beta product ask u for money to test.... who r the testers?? they or us?? :shock:

humm....

i think as a tester i am potting my system in risk... so i should demand $$50 from them... :evil:

Yes ur right, but did u read them carefully. I mentioned that I'd detected it with KAV but it didnt remove them & finally had to use others.

Hope its clear now.

NORTON ANTIVIRUS IS TOO MEMORY HUNGRY. Even my P4 2.8 Ghz 512 ddr machine needs more speed for Norton ! :shock:

So, its better to install AVG or AntiVir for Antivirus software than to purchase this crap.

Norton 2005 runs smoothly on my 3.0 ghz - 512 mb ram

I also run a lot of background apps but then too I get it loaded very fast.
