    Repeat after me: "Lord, Deliver us not into temptation."

    So you would steal the 'free' mangoes in your neighbour's tree, just because it is out there and easy for you to take right there 'in your face'?

    You have options. Let your common sense and decency tell you what is right from wrong. Or will you let other criminals lead you astray?

    Don't complain when a man hold you up and rob you of your hard earned money and possessions. After all, to some people, all money and property is free. People need to eat, and enjoy nice things, so when they see you walking with your stuff, all up in their face, what are they supposed to do?

    No, I use to steal software. Never paid for a single thing expect for the OS. But I have realized the errors of my ways because someone else told me it was wrong. Since then I have paid for all the software that I have stolen. The others I removed from my system.

    If ZoneAlarm antivirus was "goos" (good?) why you wanting another?

    And how much resources is too much for you?

    And if you can't remember why you removed AVG, why not try it out again?



    Sounds like you don't have too much of a compelling reason to needing a new AV. There is not a whole lot free AV out there to use. So unless you have a compelling reason to try another AV, use the ones you have.
