My new computer comes with a six-month CA Anti-Virus Plus Anti-Spyware
license. Any reason to use that over Avast or MSE?
No. Get rid of it. The new avast! beta is purty dang good. I mean they
all still miss stuff...so a new computer means two new images that you
can keep and use a fresh machine forever...
an updated factory image cleaned up.
that image loaded with everything you use made again.
then use external HD's and free file sync and/or online back up to
manage changes to your data and portable apps in between images.
