Thannks! my new system is winxp home. I put service pack 2 on it. It has an AMD processor - currently, it has AVG on it, but I have yet to bring it in here to hook it up to the cable! I planned on doing that today - but I broke a tooth off, and am running out of time before I head to the dentist. I would need to have it fully operational for my daughter when she got home from school - which, it wouldn't be. this computer, is winXP home - intel processor. Norton 2004 system works. and free zone alarm. No service pack 2 yet. no room for it on the system yet. did you look at the titanium version of panda? that is what my friend's have. If AVG has been working fine for everyone, I may just leave it on there and not worry about purchasing one right now. I know the 2005 editions are out now too - or hidden in the back room of the computer stores!! Cris ----- Original Message ----- From: David F.

I was looking at the paid version. I have been happy with my paid MicoTrend on the AMD tower ( Win ME) and the paid Norton's on the laptop (Win 98SE). The Dell tower upstairs has the paid Norton's (XP Home) also and we have been happy there too, until the glitch with XP SP 2. I have AVG on the Gateway (XP Pro) and have been very satisfied. It always updates automatically and scans automatically with no problems.

I wasn't sure if that was what I was going to keep as the anti-virus or not. A friend recommended the new McAfee over Norton. Panda has been recommended highly - BUT - it doesn't run its scans automatically! and I need that.
