"Wreaked Havoc with Norton antivirus"
Version: First Aid 2000
Summary
No way. Nothing here foks. You would be better served by hitting your PC with a hammer. I downloaded this immese monster, and upon first boot it crashed my computer. Next boot started this impossible to understand interface, and then my Norton antivirus complaine that it was tampered with, and demanded to be uninstalled and reloaded. Great program for those that wish to have thinning hair. Not for me. Thanks for nothing.

"well lol i thought mcafee virus scan 7.0 home was"
Version: First Aid 2000
Summary
the worst mcafee product, till i saw this. This thing wouldnt even respond on my computer kept getting messages all over the place, this has crashed that has crashed the weird thing though it was the mcafee program that was telling me, and the mcafee program that was crashing. If you want to do yourself a favor get norton utilities 2002, does a way better job than this, and it runs. I have failed to see where this program even runs, and no I am not a fan of symantec, but norton utilities is way better than this junk.

"W A R N I N G ! ! ! !"
Version: First Aid 2000
Summary
What a hideous MONSTROSITY this program is. From startup it will lock up and crash your system. Attempts to remove the program will be frustrated. One is very surprised that this program has been around since 1999 but CNET hasnt bothered to remove it. It will Crash Your System!!! Guaranteed!!! You should listed to "evlis334": Need First Aif for First Aid! A large, useless, cumbersome program that will lock and crash your system!

"Need First Aid for First Aid"
Version: First Aid 2000
Summary
The program stops running because it can't find a file (reloaded several times)and it stops scanning. Oil Change "does not recognize" any of the programs on my comuter? Waste of time and drive space, plus it slows down operations.

"Do the research before you download!"
Version: First Aid 2000
Summary
Interestingly enough I'd had this when I had Win95 and it worked pretty well. Though it says First Aid 2000 the downloadable demo then prompted me (AFTER it was installed) that is only works on Win95! Now I can't get this POS out of my system. Download.com might as well be distributing viruses!!!!!!

"Horrible"
Version: First Aid 2000
Summary
Crash protection caused crashes. I kept having problems with system and even quit using my computer unless absolutely necessary because I was frustrated with it. Through process of elimination, realized that this is what caused my constant freezes and blue screen crashes. It's now gone - never to return again.
