Ta, I'll check those links out. I know MSSE failed a bunch of tests, but it does stop windows moaning that you have no AV do it fulfilled my requirements!
I used to use AVG, but I fell out with it too. Can't remember why, possibly because of the bloat.
That's strange I use bitdefender and it's never nagged me. Have you registered it?
Registered the free version, it pops up every logon to tell me I should pay for the premium One. And it keeps nagging me to do a system scan. I don't want to so a system scan, my system is fine :@
I just turn the nagging off. I seem to occasionally get viruses at about the same rate whether I use AV or not. So I avoid the performance hit and just don't bother.
I should probably just do that. I can't remember the last time I actually got a virus, or even an alert (that wasn't a false positive from a keygen or something). It was possibly the time I was trying to diagnose what was infecting another computer and instead of right clicking the file I'd extracted I double clicked and ran it by mistake :$
Are you sure you downloaded the right thing? I just got this for my brother in law and saw this. And I know I've never seen a single nag screen about anything, and I've used this for at least 6 months now.
That doesn't look like what it gave me :|
You know what I think I've recently done the same as Kos.
I got bit defender a while back for another PC that looked like that picture but the one that I recently downloaded was labelled bit defender 2009 or something and nagged and didn't look the same.
I smell something fishy (nj).
