[ddots-l] Re: Message "Sonar not installed properly"

Hi Jeanette!!

There really is no reason why you shouldn't upgrade to SP2.  I totally agree 
with George though.  I
wouldn't personally run Norton on anything.  I use AVG here to.  It's a great 
antivirus program.
Really light on system resources.  You can ether get AVG free from the website 
that George posted
or, you can purchase it.  I have the version for small business.
