Hi,
Any of you computer experts got any views on these??
I tried a 'online' version on the net, just as a matter of interest, and it came up with nearly 1000 errors !!
My computer is new, with a fresh download of authentic programes. When everything was installed, aI used a reg editor to remove all the temporary files etc, and then ran MS Checkdisc, so I'm pretty sure that everything was OK.
My computer guy once told me that just let windows run everything, and not interfere. He even told me that strictly speaking, if you have a good anti virus suite, that a firewall wasn't necessary.
In essence, what I'm asking is, do these programs exaggerate errors, just to frighten you into buying, and are they really a neccessity, or a wate of time and money?
