   After researching this product I'm not going to bother, it even installs its own firewall, quite happy with the firewall I'm using now, it doesnt get very good reviews at Download.com, thanx anyway....

   Yep.I still remember using Nuts&Bolts98..
   They had a marvelous Uninstaller too (4.0 I believe)creating exe files to reinstall a program.

   I used nuts n bolts many years ago and was conned into buying 'oil change'.

   I tried it, told me I needed 50+ updates so I purchased a key.

   Entered key did a scan again, told me my system was fine and up-to-date.

   Thats one reason why I will never use their products again.

   Hmm... I remember my experience with VirusScan. It came preinstalled on my computer. I had to change some regional settings for my computer so that I can run some of the programs that requires it. Well turns out that the stupid thing keeps on crashing with that setting, so I really didn't have virus protection during the year that I purchased this stuff. I guess that wasted $7. That's one of the reasons that I don't trust them because they make crappy stuff.

   Tidbit: for some odd reason, they like to call VirusScan VirusScan Online. And they still do.

   Sweet! I've just managed to make a perfect archive of the program's setup files. I can now just unrar and install!

   Just an extra note: The site that you get the offer from is UK. Unless you live in the UK, don't install from that site. Instead, install from your own country/language site. Your account will all across the board, but the software downloaded from each different country's download manager will be localized. For example, I downloaded the US version of the software instead of the Canadian version that I should have downloaded from, so all of my links are linked to the US (which I like fine anyways). This also means that you could download a different language version, like Chinese. :-D
