      I had problems over Christmas with my PC,basically had to start from Scratch again,I used Panda a year or two ago then went back to AVG but was adviced to go back to PANDA once my system was sorted and never had a problem since,cant even recall why i dumped it,probably ill adviced lol.
      I bought a Laptop for my son at Christmas and got the usual complimentary phone call from PC World who were trying to sell me a half price copy of NORTON (would'nt even have it for free),I told them i would just use AVG and thanks for the offer,the Tech Guy/Learn Direct Student informed me that AVG comes pre installed with a Trojan "yip right'o see ya".Curious i googled it and found out this is actually true or so they say,probably the only thing he learned at his apprenticeship
      "I pay online for it"
      Its probably the only thing i would pay for,excellent value for money Mark

        I had Norton with my laptop when I got it and when it reached it's trial end period, my wirless started playing up. (am with BT Total Broadband) phoned the tech guys, was put in touch with a smashing bloke in a call centre in India, and he remotely removed Norton, sorted out me wirless problems and installed the BT protection (think it's Norton again) and had no prblems since!
        Fantastic service from BT

            Yeah, specially with 'BT' and 'good service' in the same sentence.

                Just to keep you up to date, have just recieved e mail from mcafee US customer services, full refund on way.
                Just a little advice for anyone with similar problems, this is the second time i have had a problem like this, find out your legal rights from consumer direct and if you just get messed around by a Uk companies internet office, go to their International HQ web site and e mail everybody who has an e mail address. Worked both times.
