Title: virus?
Post by: sweetest angel on May 19, 2010, 05:19:20 pm
HI!

mm..everytime i log on to the site my browser, whether firefox or IE8 gives me a warning page that the site contains a threat and each time i have to press "no threat". Its so annoying at every page i open i have to do that, like to press AS level i have to and then when i press the subject and again on the board and so on....

i thought its only me but all my freinds who use the site have the same problem...I figured out a way to stop those pages but the web browser still flashes the "threat!" sign to me everytime i open the site. Please tell me if there is some virus cuse then i'll be getting it to all my home computer :S

NOD32:
Pro-
-FAST AS HELL
-good detecting rate
-has the most less false reports
-Best for old, gaming computers

Con-
-has less functions compared to norton, mcafee, and others
-Has the worst support

Kaspersky:
Pros-
-Best detecting rates
-Great for student use and also very ideal
-Does the job well, and you dont even have to worry if there is a virus kaspersky does it’s job.
-a so-so support. The chat support can still improve

Cons-
-can cause computer slow downs which is rare
-Has some false report;s but not alot
-Updating can be a serious pain for some people

Overall Kaspersky is better cause NOD32 is more of a euro but somewhat popular in America. But NOD32 is still poor with adding more function’s to its Antivirus so Kaspersky only wins from that thing otherwise NOD32 is better.

Many of the members are like you. Without using antivirus, their computers work well. ;)
