updates aren't necessarily recent? At least that is what I thought I read here once. The vnunet source is anti-virus also, which I presume one could disable. I'm just making a short list of how I'll set my notebook up when the Norton trial package expires (can't wait!). I don't necessarily buy into the Norton sucks mentality, I just don't care for the gui. Admittedly, I'm sure gui opinions are totally subjective, however. I have licenses for NOD32, AVG Anti-Spyware, and Sandboxie and if truth be known, they probably would be annoying for a new user too, but don't bother me at all.

Yes, ours has the anti-virus module which you can disable. It's also based on v5.5, whereas there's is 5.1.
I've just removed Symantec Internet Security 2008 and installed SD with AV Starter as a test and it seems fairly decent, fairly lightweight. You could always give it a blast and make a decision?

.1 vs .5, good point Chris! Thank You
